Abstract
Abstract Low organic solvent-containing coating compositions are prepared by blending (i) an ester-containing polyol, having a number average molecular weight of from about 140 to about 700, a hydroxyl value of from about 160 to about 1100 and a viscosity of less than about 1200 poises, which is derived from an aromatic or alicyclic monobasic acid and, optionally, a minor proportion of a polybasic acid and a polyol having an average hydroxyl functionality of from about 2.1 to about 5.0 with (ii) an aminealdehyde crosslinking agent. Particularly valuable coating compositions which can be cured at relatively low temperatures are obtained by incorporating a cure accelerating catalyst into the composition. The compositions aid in environmental pollution control and form films having good adhesion, flexibility, hardness, stain resistance, detergent resistance, solvent resistance and durability.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
A coating composition having an organic solvent content of less than about 30 percent, said composition consisting essentially of: a. an at least 40 percent resins solids content of: (i) from about 15 parts to about 90 parts of an ester-containing polyol having a number average molecular weight of from about 160 to about 500, a hydroxyl value of from about 180 to about 800 and a viscosity of less than about 600 poises, said ester-containing polyol being the esterification product of (1) an acid reactant comprising from about 55 molar percent to about 100 molar percent of an aromatic or alicyclic monobasic acid, and from about 0 molar percent to about 45 molar percent of an aromatic, alicyclic or aliphatic dicarboxylic acid or their anhydrides where they exist, or mixture thereof, and (2) an alcohol reactant comprising a polyol having a hydroxyl functionality of from about 2.1 to about 5.0 wherein the equivalent ratio of the acid reactant to the alcohol reactant is from about 1:19 to about 1:1.2; and (ii) from about 10 parts to about 85 parts of an amine-aldehyde resin; and b. the balance, if any, water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
191 words
A coating composition having an organic solvent content of less than about 30 percent, said composition consisting essentially of: a. an at least 40 percent resins solids content of: (i) from about 15 parts to about 90 parts of an ester-containing polyol having a number average molecular weight of from about 160 to about 500, a hydroxyl value of from about 180 to about 800 and a viscosity of less than about 600 poises, said ester-containing polyol being the esterification product of (1) an acid reactant comprising from about 55 molar percent to about 100 molar percent of an aromatic or alicyclic monobasic acid, and from about 0 molar percent to about 45 molar percent of an aromatic, alicyclic or aliphatic dicarboxylic acid or their anhydrides where they exist, or mixture thereof, and (2) an alcohol reactant comprising a polyol having a hydroxyl functionality of from about 2.1 to about 5.0 wherein the equivalent ratio of the acid reactant to the alcohol reactant is from about 1:19 to about 1:1.2; and (ii) from about 10 parts to about 85 parts of an amine-aldehyde resin; and b. the balance, if any, water.
