Abstract
Abstract A convertible coating composition comprising a film-forming constituent which is a blend of (1) a low molecular weight mono or diepoxide, (b) a low molecular weight compound containing at least two reactive groups at least one of which is carboxyl and the other or others carboxyl or hydroxyl groups (c) a cross-linking agent and optionally (d) an autoxidisable fatty acid or alcohol. These coating compositions are low polluting as they may be applied by the use of only small amounts of solvents.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
221 words
A liquid convertible coating composition capable of forming a solid film on a substrate, the film-forming constituent of which is a mixture consisting essentially of the following components; (a) a component wich comprises epoxide groups and which has a maximum average molecular weight of 1200; (b) a component which has a maximum average molecular weight of 1000 and which comprises on average at least two carboxyl groups; and (c) a cross-linking agent which comprises at least two chemical groups per molecule which will react with hydroxyl groups, the said components being present in the mixture in such proportions that (1) the ratio of the total number of epoxide groups in component (a) to the total number of carboxyl groups in the mixture is from 1 : 05 to 1 : 3.0 and (2) the total weight of components (a) plus (b) is 50-96% by weight of the mixture, characterised in that (i) component (a) is a compound which comprises on average one epoxide group and one autoxidisable fatty acid residue per molecule; (ii) component (a) comprises at least one autoxidisable fatty acid residue per molecule; and (iii) the mixture comprises from 10-70% by weight of autoxidisable fatty acid residue, and further characterised in that the said components are selected from materials which do not boil or thermally decompose below 180° C.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A liquid convertible coating composition according to claim 1 in which the component (a) is a mono-ester of an autoxidisable monocarbocylic fatty acid and the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
A liquid convertible coating composition according to claim 1 in which the component (c) is a methylol melamine containing 4-6 methylol groups per molecule which groups are substantially fully etherified with methanol or ethanol.
