  • Patent number: 4782128
    Abstract: Polyurethane powder coating compositions which yield a matte surface after setting. The principal means of achieving matte surfaces with powder coating compositions is by adding fillers. These additives are detrimental to the coating properties. The known binder systems based on cycloaliphatic diisocyanate adducts which yield matte surfaces after setting are either of a complex nature or are inherently costly to prepare. These disadvantages are avoided if the polyurethane powder coating compositions are comprised of OH-group-containing polymers, and trans-1,4-cyclohexanediisocyanate (CHDI) adducts blocked with epsilon-caprolactam.
