Abstract

Abstract A liquid thermosetting coating composition wherein the film-forming component is a blend of A. from 60-95% by weight of an acid half-ester of a carboxylic acid anhydride and a polyol, the polyol being the diester of a diepoxide of epoxide equivalent 300 maximum, an autoxidative monocarboxylic fatty acid and a monocarboxylic hydroxy-acid, the acid half-ester having no epoxide groups and on average 1.5-2.5 hydroxyl groups, 1-2 carboxyl groups and 1-2 autoxidative fatty acid residues per molecule, and B. from 5-40% of a suitable crosslinking agent. The coating compositions have low viscosities at high weight solids contents, and dried films thereof exhibit excellent mechanical properties.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 124 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition having a weight solids content of 70% minimum characterised in that the film-forming component thereof is a blend of the following constituents; 1. from 60-95% by weight of an acid half-ester of a carboxylic acid anhydride and a polyol, the polyol being a di-ester of a diepoxide, an autoxidative monocarboxylic fatty acid and a monocarboxylic hydroxy-acid, further characterised in that the diepoxide has an epoxide equivalent of 300 maximum, the acid half-ester is epoxide-free and comprises on average 1.5-2.5 hydroxy groups, 1-2 carboxyl groups and 1-2 autoxidative residues of monocarboxyolic fatty acids per molecule; and 2. from 5-40% by weight of a crosslinking agent reactable with hydroxyl groups of the acid half-ester to form a crosslinked molecular net work.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 124 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition having a weight solids content of 70% minimum characterised in that the film-forming component thereof is a blend of the following constituents; 1. from 60-95% by weight of an acid half-ester of a carboxylic acid anhydride and a polyol, the polyol being a di-ester of a diepoxide, an autoxidative monocarboxylic fatty acid and a monocarboxylic hydroxy-acid, further characterised in that the diepoxide has an epoxide equivalent of 300 maximum, the acid half-ester is epoxide-free and comprises on average 1.5-2.5 hydroxy groups, 1-2 carboxyl groups and 1-2 autoxidative residues of monocarboxyolic fatty acids per molecule; and 2. from 5-40% by weight of a crosslinking agent reactable with hydroxyl groups of the acid half-ester to form a crosslinked molecular net work.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1, characterised in that the film-forming component is a blend of from 90%-70% by weight of acid half-ester and from 10-30% of crosslinking agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1, characterised in that the crosslinking agent is a methylol melamine containing 4-6 methylol groups per molecule, the methylol groups being fully etherified with methanol or ethanol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1, characterised in that the crosslinking agent is a condensation product of a phenol and formaldehyde.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
A liquid thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1, characterised in that the diepoxide is a condensation product of epichlorhydrin and 2,2-diphenylol propane.
