Abstract
Abstract An electrocoating composition useful for electrocoating a paint coating from an aqueous solution onto an anode electrical conductive substrate. The electrocoating composition is based upon a fatty acid ester and alpha , beta -unsaturated dicarboxylic acid modified styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer further modified with an acid-functional acrylic copolymer. The electrocoated film can be air dried or heat cured.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
133 words
An anodic aqueous electrocoating process for electrocoating a paint film onto an electrically conductive metal anode substrate, the improvement providing a binder polymer composition comprising on a weight basis on a step-wise basis: (a) providing 20% to 40% of a styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer containing unreacted hydroxyl groups; (b) esterifying 20% to 50% of a fatty acid with a portion of the hydroxyl groups on copolymer (a); (c) esterifying 0% to 3% of α,β-unsaturated dicarboxylic acid or anhydride with a portion of the hydroxyl groups on copolymer (a); and (d) coreacting 20% to 50% of an acid-functional acrylic copolymer by addition polymerization with the fatty acid (b) and the dicarboxylic acid or anhydride (c), and neutralizing said acid-functional groups and dispersing said binder polymer composition in water to provide an aqueous anodic electrocoating composition.
