Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
118 words
A curable pulverulent coating composition comprising (a) a polyester containing free carboxyl groups having a softening point of from 40° to 140° C. and an acid number of from 20 to 150 and being derived from at least one polyalcohol and one polycarboxylic acid which is predominantly aromatic and, as the sole crosslinking agent, (b) at least one polyglycidyl ester having an average molecular weight of from 200 to 1000 which is derived from an aromatic polycarboxylic acid, a cycloaliphatic polycarboxylic acid, an alphatic polycarboxylic acid or a mixture of at least two such acids, said (a) and (b) being present in an amount such that 0.7-1.4 equivalents of epoxide groups are present per equivalent of carboxyl groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
118 words
A curable pulverulent coating composition comprising (a) a polyester containing free carboxyl groups having a softening point of from 40° to 140° C. and an acid number of from 20 to 150 and being derived from at least one polyalcohol and one polycarboxylic acid which is predominantly aromatic and, as the sole crosslinking agent, (b) at least one polyglycidyl ester having an average molecular weight of from 200 to 1000 which is derived from an aromatic polycarboxylic acid, a cycloaliphatic polycarboxylic acid, an alphatic polycarboxylic acid or a mixture of at least two such acids, said (a) and (b) being present in an amount such that 0.7-1.4 equivalents of epoxide groups are present per equivalent of carboxyl groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein (a) has an acid number of from 50 to 100.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 5 wherein (a) has a hydroxyl number of from 50 to 150.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim

Claim 10
Dependent Claim
28 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein (a) and (b) are present in an amount such that 0.8-1.0 equivalent of epoxide groups are present per equivalent of carboxyl groups.
