Abstract
Abstract A graft copolymer having a polymeric backbone with pendent hydroxyl groups; wherein the hydrogen atom of at least the one the hydroxyl groups is replaced by the formula ##STR1## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms, R 2 is a polymer segment of a vinyl addition polymer, such as butyl acrylate/hydroxyethyl acrylate; coating compositions of this copolymer can be cross-linked with conventional cross-linking agents such as an alkylated melamine formaldehyde resin or an organic polyisocyanate and coating compositions useful for flexible elastomeric substrates can be prepared from this copolymer.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A coating composition comprising 5-60% by weight of a film forming constituent of a graft copolymer and 50-95% by weight of a liquid, wherein the graft copolymer consisting essentially of about 25-95% by weight of a polyester backbone and about 5-75% by weight of acrylic side chains; wherein the backbone contains pendent hydroxyl groups before the attachment of side chains by replacement of a hydrogen of at least one of the hydroxyl groups by the formula ##STR5## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms, R 2 , which forms a side chain, is an acrylic polymer segment.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
113 words
A coating composition comprising 5-60% by weight of a film forming constituent of a graft copolymer and 50-95% by weight of a liquid, wherein the graft copolymer consisting essentially of about 25-95% by weight of a polyester backbone and about 5-75% by weight of acrylic side chains; wherein the backbone contains pendent hydroxyl groups before the attachment of side chains by replacement of a hydrogen of at least one of the hydroxyl groups by the formula ##STR5## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms, R 2 , which forms a side chain, is an acrylic polymer segment.
