Abstract:
A low temperature cure electrodepositable cathodic resin is disclosed. The resin is the reaction product of a polyepoxide amine adduct and a novel blocked crosslinking agent. The crosslinking agent of our invention is tetramethylxylene diisocyanate blocked with any suitable blocking agent. The resulting resin can be cured at relatively low temperatures (250.degree.-275.degree. F.), which potentially allows the use of the resin with articles containing plastics.
Abstract:
A reactive diluent for use in an amine-containing epoxy resin composition. The reactive diluent comprises a soft, blocked isocyanate crosslinking agent. This reactive diluent is incorporated into the resin in addition to the primary crosslinking agent. The use of the reactive diluent eliminates or substantially reduces the need for volatile organic coalescent solvents and produces smooth, durable corrosion resistant coatings.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to an improved aqueous cathodic electrocoating composition and a method for the electrodeposition of this composition; the composition comprises a cathodic electrodepositable composition comprising a binder of (a) a cathodically electrodepositable film forming resin and (b) a polyisocyanate crosslinking agent blocked with a compound that is non-hazardous and non-air polluting, such as, an alkoxy alkanol or an alkyl alcohol; wherein the improvement comprises the use of 0.1-5.0% by weight, based on the weight of the binder, of a water miscible amine acid zwitterion additive which is the reaction product of an amine acid and an alkylglycidy ether.
Abstract:
An improved aqueous cathodic electrocoating composition having a binder of an epoxy-amine adduct which is an epoxy resin that has been reacted with an amine, a blocked polyisocyanate crosslinking agent and an organic or inorganic acid as the neutralizing agent for the epoxy amine adduct; where the improvement is a catalyst of an alkyl tin oxide that has been dissolved with an organic or inorganic acid to provide a clear cathodic electrocoating composition.
Abstract:
An improved aqueous electrocoating composition that contains an anticrater agent which is a reaction product of polyoxyalkylene diamine and glycidoxy alkyl alkoxy silane which is hydrolyzed and has a number average molecular weight of about 700-5,000; electrodeposited finishes are formed that have a significant reduction in craters and are smooth and even finishes.
