Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a water-dilutable binder for cationic electrocoating finishes. For the preparation of the binders po0 (A) a di-epoxide compound with an epoxide equivalent weight below 2,000 is reacted with (B) a phenol- or thiol-containing compound which reacts monofunctionally with epoxide groups, and with (C) primary and/or secondary amines or their salts and/or the salt of a tertiary amine, a sulfide/acid mixture or phosphine/acid mixture or a mixture of these compounds, as well as, if desired, with (D) a polyfunctional alcohol, a polycarboxylic acid, a polysulfide or a polyphenol. The components A and B are used in a molar ratio of from 10:1 to 1:1, preferably from 4: to 1.5:1 and the reaction of the component A with the component B is carried out at 100° to 190° C., if desired in the presence of a catalyst.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 216 words
A process for the electrophoretic coating of an electrically conducting substrate connected as cathode by applying a direct current to electrodes placed in an aqueous bath which contains, besides the usual additives, water-dilutable cationic binders which have either been made self-crosslinkable by reaction or can be crosslinked by crosslinking agents present in the bath, wherein the binders are obtainable by reacting (A) a di-epoxide compound, or a mixture of di-epoxide compounds, having an epoxide equivalent weight below 2,000, with (B) a phenol- or thiol-containing compound which, under the given reaction conditions reacts monofunctionally with epoxide groups, or a mixture of such compounds, and with (C) primary and/or secondary amines or their salts and/or the salt of a tertiary amine, a sulfide/acid mixture or phosphine/acid mixture or a mixture of these compounds, as well as, if desired, with (D) a polyfunctional alcohol, a polycarboxylic acid, a polyamine, a polysulfide, a polyphenol or a mixture of these compounds the components A and B being used in a molar ratio from 10:1 to 1:1, preferably from 4:1 to 1.5:1, the reaction of component A with component B being carried out at 100° to 190° C., if desired in the presence of a catalyst, and, if further desired, the dilutability with water being obtained by protonization with a water-soluble acid.
