Abstract

Abstract A low viscosity high solids thermosetting coating composition useful in the packaging industry as a barrier coating and overprint varnish, based urea-formaldehyde crosslinking agents and low molecular weight polyols, is provided. These compositions provide rapid cure response and afford coatings having good gloss, clarity, and mar resistance and are non-blocking. The compositions do not contain aromatic solvents and are applicable by gravure or flexographic techniques.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A high solids thermosetting coating composition consisting essentially of: (A) 50-85 parts by weight, based on the weight of (A) plus (B), of a methylated urea-formaldehyde crosslinking agent; and (B) 50-15 parts by weight, based on the weight of (A) plus (B) of a liquid polyol having a molecular weight range of 425-1,100, selected from the group consisting of aliphatic diols and triols, ether diols and triols, and polyester diols; wherein components (A) and (B) are compatible and wherein the mixture of (A) and (B) has a maximum Brookfield viscosity of 2,000 centipoises at 25° C.; said composition having a minimum solids content of 80% by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
A high solids thermosetting coating composition consisting essentially of: (A) 50-85 parts by weight, based on the weight of (A) plus (B), of a methylated urea-formaldehyde crosslinking agent; and (B) 50-15 parts by weight, based on the weight of (A) plus (B) of a liquid polyol having a molecular weight range of 425-1,100, selected from the group consisting of aliphatic diols and triols, ether diols and triols, and polyester diols; wherein components (A) and (B) are compatible and wherein the mixture of (A) and (B) has a maximum Brookfield viscosity of 2,000 centipoises at 25° C.; said composition having a minimum solids content of 80% by weight.
Claim 3
