Abstract: Binders for cathodic electrocoating which are based on polyadducts/polycondensates which carry basic nitrogen groups and are rendered water-dilutable by protonation with an acid, and one or more crosslinkng agents for these polyadducts/polycondensates, and their use.These binders essentially consist of a mixture of(A) from 50 to 90% by weight of a polyadduct/polycondensate which carries basic nitrogen groups and is obtainable by reacting(a) an adduct of a secondary amine and a polyepoxide compound, the adduct still containing free epoxide groups, with(b) a condensate which contains primary amino groups and is obtained from a primary diamine of not less than 4 carbon atoms and one or more mono- and/or dicarboxylic acids, one or more primary amino groups of the condensate (b) being used per free epoxide group of the adduct (a), and(B) from 10 to 50% by weight of a crosslinking agent which does not react with component (A) at room temperature but reacts with the latter at elevated temperatures with crosslinking.
