Abstract

Abstract A coating composition containing as essential components (A) a prepolymer of epoxy resin and polyhydroxy phenolic compound selected from the group consisting of: (i) poly-nuclear polyhydroxy phenols having adjacent hydroxy groups, (ii) polyol esters of polyhydroxy phenolic carboxylic acids having adjacent hydroxy groups, (iii) a mixture thereof, and (B) an organic hardener for epoxy resins. This coating composition can be coated on rusty metal surfaces.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 59 words
A coating composition containing, as essential components, (A) a prepolymer of epoxy resin and polyhydroxy phenolic compound selected from the group consisting of (i) polynuclear polyhydroxy phenols having adjacent hydroxy groups, (ii) polyol esters of polyhydroxy phenolic carboxylic acids having adjacent hydroxy groups, and (iii) mixtures of (i) and (ii); and (B) an organic hardener for said epoxy resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 59 words
A coating composition containing, as essential components, (A) a prepolymer of epoxy resin and polyhydroxy phenolic compound selected from the group consisting of (i) polynuclear polyhydroxy phenols having adjacent hydroxy groups, (ii) polyol esters of polyhydroxy phenolic carboxylic acids having adjacent hydroxy groups, and (iii) mixtures of (i) and (ii); and (B) an organic hardener for said epoxy resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said polynuclear polyhydroxy phenol having adjacent hydroxy groups is a condensation product of formaldehyde and polyhydroxy phenol having at least one pair of adjacent hydroxy groups.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said polyol esters are aliphatic polyol esters.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein said prepolymer is obtained by reacting said epoxy resin and said polyhydroxy phenolic compound at a temperature in the range of 100° C. to 200° C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 4, wherein said epoxy resin is reacted with said polyhydroxy phenolic compound in the presence of a solvent and a catalyst selected from the group consisting of tertiary amines, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and amine hydrochloride salts.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 53 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 2, wherein said polyhydroxy phenol is selected from the group consisting of catechol, catechol-3-carboxylic acid or ester thereof, catechol-4-carboxylic acid or ester thereof, pyrogallol, pyrogallol-4,6-dicarboxylic acid or ester thereof, pyrogallol-4-carboxylic acid or ester thereof, gallic acid or ester thereof, tannic acid or ester thereof, and urushiol.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 80 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 3, wherein said polyol ester of polyhydroxy phenolic carboxylic acid is formed by reacting an aliphatic polyol selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, 1,6-hexanediol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, glycerin, trimethylol propane, pentaerythritol, sorbitol and glucose with a polyhydroxy phenolic carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of catechol-3-carboxylic acid, catechol-4-carboxylic acid, gallic acid, m-galloyl gallic acid, pyrogallol-4-carboxylic acid, pyrogallol-4,6-dicarboxylic acid and tannic acid.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 30 words
A coating composition as claimed in claim 1 in which the molar ratio of said epoxy resin to said polyhydroxy phenolic compound is in the range of 1/0.05 to 1/0.1.
