Abstract

Abstract A coating composition comprising (A) a thermoplastic resin having a glass transition temperature of 0 DEG to 80 DEG C., (B) a compound having 2 or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule, (C) a thixotropic agent and (D) a solvent, and said coating composition having a viscosity of 3 to 50 poises at 25 DEG C. and a thixotropy of 2 or more can give a moistureproof insulating coating film with uniform and large thickness and very few bubbles by one-time treatment over packing circuit boards.
