Patent number: 5952407Abstract: A novel thermosettable composition-of-matter is disclosed. One embodiment of the composition-of-matter includes a polymeric thermosettable ingredient having at least three acetoacetoxy-type functional pendant moieties as well as at least three acid-functional pendant moieties. Another embodiment of the composition-of-matter includes at least two polymeric thermosettable ingredients, one of which includes at least three acid-functional pendant moieties and the other of which includes at least three acetoacetoxy-type functional pendant moieties.
