Abstract

Abstract Coating compositions applicable by conventional coating techniques as well as by electrodeposition are provided by reacting an epoxy-containing organic material with a compound containing at least one phenolic hydroxyl group and a group hydrolyzable to a carboxyl group. Examples of such hydrolyzable groups include ester groups, amide groups and nitrile groups. Compounds include esters of benzoic, salicylic and diphenolic acids, and phenolphthalein. The resultant product may then be hydrolyzed and solubilized, using any of the known hydrolyzing agents, e.g., aqueous potassium hydroxide, aqueous sodium hydroxide and aqueous solutions of the various amines used in the art.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
An aqueous composition comprising: A. the solubilized reaction product of 1. a polyepoxide having an epoxy equivalency greater than 1.0, and 2. a compound containing at least one phenolic hydroxyl group and containing at least one group hydrolyzable to a carboxyl group and having the following structural formula: (HO).sub.n R--(W).sub.m wherein n and m are integers of at least 1, wherein R is an organic radical containing at least one aryl group and wherein at least one of the hydroxyl groups is attached to at least one of the aryl groups of R, and wherein W is a group hydrolyzable to a carboxyl group, and B. a curing agent selected from the class consisting of aminoplast resins, phenolic resins and blocked or semi-blocked polyisocyanates and combinations thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
An aqueous composition comprising: A. the solubilized reaction product of 1. a polyepoxide having an epoxy equivalency greater than 1.0, and 2. a compound containing at least one phenolic hydroxyl group and containing at least one group hydrolyzable to a carboxyl group and having the following structural formula: (HO).sub.n R--(W).sub.m wherein n and m are integers of at least 1, wherein R is an organic radical containing at least one aryl group and wherein at least one of the hydroxyl groups is attached to at least one of the aryl groups of R, and wherein W is a group hydrolyzable to a carboxyl group, and B. a curing agent selected from the class consisting of aminoplast resins, phenolic resins and blocked or semi-blocked polyisocyanates and combinations thereof.
