Abstract:
Coating compositions comprising a polymeric polyol with a polyester crosslinking agent having at least two beta-alkoxyester groups per molecule are disclosed. The compositions, when applied to a substrate and cured in the presence of a transesterification catalyst, give solvent-resistant coatings.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are electrodepositable coating compositions comprising a film forming resin and a textured additive, wherein the textured additive has a density (specific gravity) of no more than 4.5 g/cc and a melting point greater than the curing temperature of the electrodepositable coating composition. Also described are coated substrates having a cured coating layer comprising the electrodepositable coating composition, wherein the cured film layer has a texture of at least 250μ-in as measured by a profilometer at conventional cured film thicknesses.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are resinous dispersions suitable for use in an electrodepositable coating composition. The resinous dispersions include: (a) an epoxy-amine adduct formed as the reaction product of reactants comprising (i) an epoxy-containing compound having at least one active hydroxyl group; and (ii) an amine-containing compound having a primary and a tertiary amine group; (b) an acid; (c) a second epoxy-containing compound; and (d) water. The resinous dispersion may be introduced into cationic electrodepositable coating compositions. Coated substrates formed with such cationic electrodepositable coating compositions may achieve 60° gloss readings of 3 or less at conventional film builds.
Abstract:
Stabilization of aqueous resinous dispersions containing a pigment of a divalent metal such as strontium chromate is disclosed. Stabilization is achieved by incorporating a chelating agent in the dispersion.
Abstract:
An electrodepositable composition is provided comprising: a non-gelled, cationic, water-dispersible resin, electrodepositable on a cathode, which is derived from a polyepoxide and which contains in the resin molecule cationic salt groups, beta-hydroxy ester groups, active hydrogen groups including free phenolic hydroxyl groups, and capped isocyanate groups. The composition provides excellent corrosion resistance when electrodeposited over steel substrates, and does not require lead in the formulation nor the use of a conventional chrome rinse for the steel substrate during pretreatment before electrodeposition.
Abstract:
Formaldehyde-containing cationic electrodepositable compositions to which are added a formaldehyde scavenger are disclosed. Also disclosed are the use of these compositions in a method of cationic electrodeposition. Free formaldehyde in cationic compositions can lower the pH of the compositions making them more corrosive to the metal parts such as ferrous metal tanks and attending piping and pumps in contact with such compositions. The presence of the formaldehyde scavenger in such compositions stabilizes the pH.
Abstract:
A process for applying a coating on aluminum substrates by anionic electrodeposition of a phosphated epoxy resin made by phosphating a polyepoxide with both phosphoric acid and an organophosphonic acid and/or an organophosphinic acid. The coating has a reduced tendency to form pinholes.

Abstract:
An electrodepositable composition is provided comprising:(A) a non-gelled cationic resin which is derived from a polyepoxide and which contains in the resin molecule cationic salt groups and active hydrogen groups selected from aliphatic hydroxyl and primary and secondary amino; and present as a separate component(B) a fully capped polyisocyanate curing agent containing substantially no free isocyanate groups, The electrodepositable composition contains from about 0.02 to 1.0 milliequivalents phenolic hydroxyl groups per gram of resin solids, and from about 0.1 to 2.0 milliequivalents beta-hydroxy ester groups per gram of resin solids. The composition provides excellent corrosion resistance when electrodeposited over steel substrates, and does not require lead in the formulation nor the use of a conventional chrome rinse for the steel substrate pretreatment before electrodeposition.
