Abstract

Abstract Described is an aqueous chip resistant coating composition exhibiting a viscosity of at least 5,000 centipoise, preferably containing binders with a high molecular weight, preferably at least 20,000. Although these coatings may be applied to a variety of substrates, for coating electrocoated substrates the following eight binders are particularly preferred: ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, carboxylated ethylene vinyl acetate, epoxy functional acrylic resin, carboxylated styrene-butadiene resin, carboxylated acrylic, hydroxy functional acrylic, self-crosslinking acrylic; and carboxylated PVC acrylic. Generally, it is preferred to apply the chip resistant coating via an airless spray and then heat curing the coating.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 27
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
A method of coating a substrate comprising the steps of: (a) electrodepositing an organic coating onto a substrate; and then (b) depositing a chip resistant coating thereon, and (c) curing the chip resistant coating; wherein the chip resistant coating is comprised of: film forming latex binder; and filler mixed with the binder to form a composition having a viscosity of at least 5,000 centipoise.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 64 words
A method of coating a substrate comprising the steps of: (a) electrodepositing an organic coating onto a substrate; and then (b) depositing a chip resistant coating thereon, and (c) curing the chip resistant coating; wherein the chip resistant coating is comprised of: film forming latex binder; and filler mixed with the binder to form a composition having a viscosity of at least 5,000 centipoise.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the electrodeposited organic coating is dried prior to depositing the chip resistant coating.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the chip resistant coating is sprayed onto the electrolytically deposited first coating.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 124 words
A method of coating a substrate comprising the steps of: (a) electrodepositing an organic coating onto a substrate; and then (b) depositing a chip resistant coating thereon, and (c) curing the chip resistant coating; wherein the coating composition is comprised of: (a') 10-100 percent by weight PBW latex binder selected from the group consisting of: (i) an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer; (ii) a carboxylated ethylene vinyl acetate; (iii) e poxy functional acrylic resin; (iv) carboxylated styrene-butadiene resin; (v) carboxylated acrylic; (vi) hydroxy functional acrylic; (vii) self-crosslinking acrylic, and (viii) carboxylated polyvinyl chloride acrylic, and mixtures thereof, dispersed in the water; and (b') 0-90 PBW filler mixed in with the latex binder so that the total of (a') and (b') equals 90 to 100 PBW.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 124 words
A method of coating a substrate comprising the steps of: (a) electrodepositing an organic coating onto a substrate; and then (b) depositing a chip resistant coating thereon, and (c) curing the chip resistant coating; wherein the coating composition is comprised of: (a') 10-100 percent by weight PBW latex binder selected from the group consisting of: (i) an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer; (ii) a carboxylated ethylene vinyl acetate; (iii) e poxy functional acrylic resin; (iv) carboxylated styrene-butadiene resin; (v) carboxylated acrylic; (vi) hydroxy functional acrylic; (vii) self-crosslinking acrylic, and (viii) carboxylated polyvinyl chloride acrylic, and mixtures thereof, dispersed in the water; and (b') 0-90 PBW filler mixed in with the latex binder so that the total of (a') and (b') equals 90 to 100 PBW.
