Abstract
Abstract Novel oxazoline-containing monomers represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein: n is an integer of from 1 through 20: R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl; and R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and R 7 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl of from 1 through 20 carbon atoms; polymers thereof, and methods for preparing the same are disclosed. The hydrocurable polymers of the invention, before hydrolysis, contain a plurality of units represented by the following formula: ##STR2## Polymers having such units may be obtained by addition polymerization of monomers of structure I, preferably with other ethylenically unsaturated monomers. In the alternative, polymers may be obtained by transesterification of polymers having pendant ester groups, (for example those having 1 through 5 carbon atoms in the alcohol moiety , such as polymers containing methyl mthacrylate, butyl acrylate, and the like), by an alcohol represented by the formula wherein R 2 --R 6 are as noted above. A third method of obtaining units represented by structure II is by direct esterification of --COOH (carboxyl) units in a polymer, by an alcohol of formula III. This latter route, while possible, generally is not preferred. The oxazoline-containing polymers are blended with addition polymers containing a plurality of dicarboxylic acid cyclic anhydride groups, and the blended materials are caused to react with each other in the presence of moisture whereby they become crosslinked into a ripple-free, smooth coating by a novel two-step process. The process steps involve a first heat treatment to melt the blended materials followed, while the compound is still hot, by a moisture treatment to crosslink and set the resin mixture. Alternatively, the cure may be conducted slowly enough to permit fusion in the presence of moisture, followed by crosslinking. The blended materials may be applied to a suitable substrate from a solution, from a nonaqueous dispersion, or, preferably, as a powder.
