Abstract
Abstract An improved process for the preparation of cationic resins derived from polyepoxides is disclosed. Typically, the process comprises contacting the polyepoxide with particular polyether polyols and heating the two together to form a resin which may then be reacted with a cationic base group former such as an amine and acid. Aqueous dispersions of the cationic resins prepared by the improved process are useful for coating applications, particularly cationic electrodeposition. They exhibit good low temperature cure response and the cured coatings have good physical properties such as resistance to water, detergent and salt spray corrosion.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
142 words
In a method of coating a conductive substrate serving as a cathode in an electrical circuit comprising said cathode and an anode immersed in an aqueous electrodepositable coating composition, said method comprising passing electric current between said cathode and said anode to cause a coating to deposit on said cathode, said coating composition comprising a resin which contains cationic base groups and which is formed from reacting a polyepoxide resin with a cationic base group former, the improvement comprising a polyepoxide resin which is formed from reacting a polyepoxide with a polyether polyol; said polyether polyol formed from reacting: (A) a cyclic polyol with (B) ethylene oxide or a mixture of ethylene oxide and an alkylene oxide having 3 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkylene chain; the equivalent ratio of (B) to (A) being within the range of 3 to 20:1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
