Abstract
Abstract Non-gelled compositions containing hydroxy ester copolymer having carboxyl groups and substantially free of oxirane groups are disclosed which are the esterification reaction product of (a) acidic addition copolymer; and (b) a polyepoxide which has been partially defunctionalized by reaction with carboxyl containing polybutadiene polymer. The resulting composition is neutralized with amine, is self-emulsifiable in water and is useful for coatings.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
96 words
A composition comprising a stable aqueous emulsion of an adduct neutralized with sufficient base to render it emulsifiable in water, in which said adduct contains carboxyl groups, is substantially free of oxirane groups, and comprises the esterification reaction product of (a) an acidic copolymer comprising a solution copolymer of monoethylenically unsaturated monomers containing at least 10 weight percent of monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer based on the total weight of the monomers; and (b) a partially defunctionalized epoxy resin containing free epoxide groups, which is the reaction product of polyepoxide and a carboxyl containing polybutadiene polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
96 words
A composition comprising a stable aqueous emulsion of an adduct neutralized with sufficient base to render it emulsifiable in water, in which said adduct contains carboxyl groups, is substantially free of oxirane groups, and comprises the esterification reaction product of (a) an acidic copolymer comprising a solution copolymer of monoethylenically unsaturated monomers containing at least 10 weight percent of monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer based on the total weight of the monomers; and (b) a partially defunctionalized epoxy resin containing free epoxide groups, which is the reaction product of polyepoxide and a carboxyl containing polybutadiene polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
The composition of claim 1 in which said partially defunctionalized epoxy resin is the reaction product of an aromatic polyether epoxide and an alpha, omega polybutadiene dicarboxylic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 2 which is emulsified in water in the substantial absence of added emulsifying agent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claims 1 or 2 in which said monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer is methacrylic acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
The composition of claims 1 or 2 in which said aromatic polyether epoxide has an epoxy equivalent weight of between 200 and 1000.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
38 words
The composition of claims 1 or 2 which further contains from 1 to 25 weight percent of a curing agent selected from aminoplast resins, phenoplast resins, and mixtures thereof, based on the weight of the total resin content.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
A stable aqueous emulsion comprising the composition of claims 1 or 2 in which amine is used to form a salt with from 50 to 90 percent of the available carboxyl groups, and water is present in an amount to provide a solids content of about 10 to 50 percent.
