Abstract

Abstract Disclosed herein is a heat curable anionic electrodepositable composition comprising an aqueous dispersion of a base-neutralized resinous composition containing an effective combination of: (a) greater than about 50 percent on a solids basis of a phosphated epoxy resin and (b) an aminoplast resin having a combination of low alkoxy and high alkoxy groups. Also disclosed is a process for coating a conductive substrate which includes electrodepositing a base-neutralized resinous composition containing an effective combination of at least about 50 percent of a phosphated epoxy resin on a resin solids basis, and an aminoplast resin followed by heating the substrate to a temperature of less than 225 F over 20 to 60 minutes. The disclosed composition is particuarly useful for coating heat sensitive substrates because acceptable cure is attained at temperatures of less than 225 F.
