Abstract

Abstract A polyester coating composition is produced by heating a reaction mixture comprising (a) 17-24 percent by weight of a fatty acid, (b) 30-42 percent of a polyol moiety consisting of 45-70 percent of a triol with the remainder being diol, and (c) 40-56 percent of a polycarboxylic acid moiety consisting of 83-93 percent of an aromatic polycarboxylic acid with the remainder being an aliphatic polycarboxylic acid, to a temperature, generally between 400* and 480*F, and for a time sufficient to esterify the reactants. Preferably, this coating composition is reacted with an aminoplast resin to cause cross-linking to produce a hard, flexible paint which is capable of withstanding high temperatures without noticeable discoloration and which is particularly useful for coil coating.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 136 words
The polyester resin obtained by the esterification of: a. a fatty acid having from 10 to 26 carbon atoms in an amount by weight between about 17 percent and about 24 percent of the total weight of (a), (b) and (c); b. a polyol moiety in an amount by weight between about 30 percent and about 42 percent, said polyol moiety consisting of between about 45 percent and about 70 percent by weight of a triol with the remainder being diol; and c. a polycarboxylic acid moiety in an amount by weight between about 40 percent and about 56 percent, said polycarboxylic acid moiety consisting of between about 83 percent and about 93 percent by weight of an aromatic polycarboxylic acid with the remainder being an aliphatic polycarboxylic acid having from three to 18 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 136 words
The polyester resin obtained by the esterification of: a. a fatty acid having from 10 to 26 carbon atoms in an amount by weight between about 17 percent and about 24 percent of the total weight of (a), (b) and (c); b. a polyol moiety in an amount by weight between about 30 percent and about 42 percent, said polyol moiety consisting of between about 45 percent and about 70 percent by weight of a triol with the remainder being diol; and c. a polycarboxylic acid moiety in an amount by weight between about 40 percent and about 56 percent, said polycarboxylic acid moiety consisting of between about 83 percent and about 93 percent by weight of an aromatic polycarboxylic acid with the remainder being an aliphatic polycarboxylic acid having from three to 18 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words

Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
The polyester resin of claim 1 wherein said fatty acid is saturated.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
