Abstract

Abstract A thermosetting coating composition comprising the organic solvent-soluble reaction product formed by contacting at an elevated temperature at least one blocked isocyanate-functional urethane and at least one organic solvent-soluble phenolic resin, and, optionally, at least one blocked isocyanate-functional urethane. The compositions are storage-stable for extended periods and cure to a thermoset state to afford tough, durable, flexible finishes which are resistant to cracking, staining, and marring.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 23
Claim 1
Independent Claim 41 words
Polyurethane-phenolic resin adducts comprising the organic solvent-soluble reaction product formed by contacting a blocked isocyanate-functional polyurethane and an organic solvent-soluble phenolic resin at a temperature sufficient to dissociate said blocked polyurethane and initiate reaction between said polyurethane and said phenolic resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 41 words
Polyurethane-phenolic resin adducts comprising the organic solvent-soluble reaction product formed by contacting a blocked isocyanate-functional polyurethane and an organic solvent-soluble phenolic resin at a temperature sufficient to dissociate said blocked polyurethane and initiate reaction between said polyurethane and said phenolic resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
Polyurethane-phenolic resin adducts according to claim 1 wherein said reaction between said polyurethane and said phenolic resin is continued to the point of substantially complete dehydration of the reaction mixture.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
