Abstract: The invention concerns a binder suitable for clear or pigmented coating agents. Binders based on copolymers containing hydroxyl groups have hitherto a high solvent content. The solids content of the new binders is improved without affecting the viscosity; gloss, body, flow and processing properties of coatings containing the new binders are improved. The binders consist essentially of a copolymer containing hydroxyl groups, made from specific quantities of styrol, tertbutacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, butanediol-1, 4-monoacrylate, acrylic acid and glycidyl esters of .alpha.-alkylalkane monocarboxylic acids and/or .alpha.,.alpha.-dialkylalkane monocarboxylic acids.

Abstract: Previous coating materials lead to the formation of bubbles at high layer thickness and when drying by heating. The new coating materials are intended to be bubble-free when dried at higher layer thicknesses.Aside from pigments and/or extenders, the coating material contains solvents and, if necessary, conventional paint auxiliaries in a vehicle mixture, comprising essentially 60-75% by weight of a hydroxy-functional copolymer, 1-5% by weight of an ester-soluble nitrocellulose and 25-35% by weight of difunctional or multifunctional polyisocyanate. It can be cured without forming bubbles even when applied in thick layers.Use as primer and filler.
