Abstract
Abstract An aqueous coating composition characterized in that the composition comprises: (A) a water-dispersible film-forming acrylic polymer, (B) a crosslinking agent prepared by dispersing a hydrophobic melamine resin in water in the presence of a water-soluble resin, the hydrophobic melamine resin being up to about 20 in solvent dilution ratio when diluted with a water/methanol solvent mixture (35/65 in weight ratio) and about 500 to about 4000 in weight average molecular weight, and (C) a pigment. The composition is very suitable for use in the two-coat one-bake coating method as a base-coat composition.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
76 words
An aqueous coating composition characterized in that the composition comprises (A) a water-dispersible film-forming acrylic polymer, (B) a crosslinking agent prepared by dispersing a hydrophobic melamine resin in water in the presence of a water-soluble resin, the hydrophobic melamine resin being about 18 to about 0.1 in solvent dilution ratio when diluted with a water/methanol solvent mixture (35/65 in weight ratio) and about 500 to about 4000 in weight average molecular weight, and (C) a pigment.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
76 words
An aqueous coating composition characterized in that the composition comprises (A) a water-dispersible film-forming acrylic polymer, (B) a crosslinking agent prepared by dispersing a hydrophobic melamine resin in water in the presence of a water-soluble resin, the hydrophobic melamine resin being about 18 to about 0.1 in solvent dilution ratio when diluted with a water/methanol solvent mixture (35/65 in weight ratio) and about 500 to about 4000 in weight average molecular weight, and (C) a pigment.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A composition as defined in claim 1 wherein the hydrophobic melamine resin in the component (B) is about 800 to about 3000 in weight average molecular weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
47 words
A composition as defined in claim 1 wherein the hydrophobic melamine resin and the water-soluble resin in the component (B) are in the ratio of about 20 to about 100 parts by weight of the latter per 100 parts by weight of the former, calculated as solids.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A composition as defined in claim 1 which comprises about 8 to about 65 parts by weight, calculated as solids of the melamine resin, of the crosslinking agent (B), per 100 parts by weight, calculated as solids, of the water-dispersible film-forming acrylic polymer (A).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A composition as defined in claim 1 wherein the component (C) comprises at least one pigment selected from the group consisting of a metallic pigment and a coloring pigment.
