Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to electrodepositable compositions and the method of electrodepositing these compositions. The electrodepositable compositions of the invention comprise non-aqueous electrodepositable coating compositions comprising a non-aqueous dispersion of a polymer containing basic nitrogen atoms in an organic dispersing liquid in the presence of a dispersion stablizer and optionally a coupling solvent.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 23
Claim 1
Independent Claim 23 words
A method as in claim 1 wherein the dispersion has a solids content of from about 10 to about 65 percent by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 31 words
A method as in claim 1 wherein the polymer is an imine-modified interpolymer of: a. a polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid; and b. at least one other polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
A method as in claim 3 wherein the monomer comprises methyl methacrylate or butyl methacrylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 15 words
A method as in claim 3 wherein the acid comprises acrylic acid or methacrylic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
A method as in claim 3 wherein the imine is 2-hydroxyethyl ethylenimine or ethylenimine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
A method as in claim 1 wherein the polymer contains at least a portion thereof derived from an ethylenically unsaturated basic nitrogen-containing monomer.
Claim 7
