Abstract

Abstract A process for forming a metallic paint film comprising (a) coating on a substrate surface a metallic paint containing as a vehicle component a modified vinyl-type copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 5-75 weight % of cellulose acetate butyrate with 95-25 weight % of a monomeric component consisting of one or more vinyl-type monomers, (b) if necessary, coating a thermosetting resin-type clear topcoating while said coated metallic paint film is in the unhardened state and (c) then baking the paint film.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 47 words
A metallic paint comprising: (a) a modified vinyl-type copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 5-75% by weight of cellulose acetate butyrate with 95-25% by weight of a monomer component consisting of one or more vinyl-type monomers, as a vehicle component, (b) a metallic powder, and (c) an organic solvent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 47 words
A metallic paint comprising: (a) a modified vinyl-type copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 5-75% by weight of cellulose acetate butyrate with 95-25% by weight of a monomer component consisting of one or more vinyl-type monomers, as a vehicle component, (b) a metallic powder, and (c) an organic solvent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said modified vinyl-type copolymer is obtained by copolymerizing 10-50 weight% of cellulose acetate butyrate with 90-50 weight% of a monomeric component consisting of one or more of said vinyl-type monomers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said cellulose acetate butyrate has a degree of acetylation of 1-34 weight% and a butyl group content of 16-60 weight%.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said cellulose acetate butyrate has viscosity in the range of 0.005-5 second.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said monomeric component consists mainly of at least two monomers selected from styrene, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 36 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said monomeric component contains 5-35 weight% of styrene based on the total weight of said monomeric component, the rest being a monomeric mixture consisting of one or more vinyl-type monomers.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
The paint of claim 6 wherein said other vinyl-type monomers are selected from methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 34 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said modified vinyl-type copolymer is obtained by copolymerizing said cellulose actetate butyrate with said monomeric component in the presence of a hydroperoxide type and/or a peroxidetype polymerization initiator.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 14 words
The paint of claim 1 wherein said metallic paint further contains a hardening agent.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 16 words
