  • Publication number: 20230143725
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an aqueous coating composition containing an aqueous epoxy resin dispersion, an aqueous amine-functional resin dispersion and an aromatic carboxylic acid. The aqueous dispersion contains at least one specific di- and/or polyfunctional monomeric amine and at least one resin component including at least one specific polyfunctional organic amine. Further disclosed herein is a kit-of-parts including a base varnish containing the aqueous epoxy resin dispersion and a curing component containing the aqueous amine-functional resin dispersion as well as the aromatic carboxylic acid. Additionally disclosed herein is a process for producing a coating on the substrate as well as coated substrates resulting from said process. Cured coating layers formed from said compositions exhibit a good adhesion to the substrate as well as a high intercoat adhesion and blistering stability under humidity conditions without negatively influencing the excellent sandability and the good stone chipping properties.
