  • Acrylic Polyester Resin and An Aqueous Coating Composition Containing the Same
    Publication number: 20240262947
    Abstract: There is described an acrylic polyester resin, obtainable by grafting an acrylic polymer with a polyester material. The polyester material is obtainable by polymerizing (i) a polyacid component, with (ii) a polyol component, including—2,2,4,4-tetraalkylcyclobutane-1,3-diol. One of the polyacid component or the polyol component comprises a functional monomer operable to impart functionality on to the polyester resin, such that an acrylic polymer may be grafted with the polyester material via the use of said functionality. Also provided is an aqueous coating composition comprising the acrylic polyester resin and a metal packaging containing coated with the composition.

  • COATED SUBSTRATE
    Publication number: 20240132747
    Abstract: A coated substrate comprising a coating extending over at least a part of the substrate. The coating is obtainable from a coating composition comprising (a) a polymeric binder; and (b) a feathering reducing agent comprising a carboxylic acid reactive functional group. The coated portion of the substrate comprises a pretreatment layer. The pretreatment layer is obtainable from a pretreatment composition that comprises a trivalent chromium compound. The invention extends to a method of coating a pre-treated substrate and a coated package, such as a metal can.

  • COATING COMPOSITION
    Publication number: 20240101860
    Abstract: A coating composition comprising (a) a polyester binder material; and (b) a feathering reducing agent. The feathering reducing agent is selected from (i) an acrylic feathering reducing agent comprising a functional group selected from hydroxyl, epoxide, phosphatized epoxide and/or acid-functional; (ii) a hydroxy-functional polyester feathering reducing agent; (iii) a feathering reducing agent comprising a functional group selected from amine, amide, imine and/or nitrile; (iv) a phosphatized epoxy feathering reducing agent; (v) a phenolic resin feathering reducing agent; and/or (vi) a feathering reducing agent comprising an oxazolyl functional group. The invention extends to a substrate coated with the coating composition and use of the coating composition to reduce feathering.
