  • Silicone-containing polyesters, coating compositions containing the same, and coatings formed therefrom
    Patent number: 10920103
    Abstract: A silicone-containing polyester polyol can include a reaction product prepared from reactants including: a diol; a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups; a dimer of a fatty acid having two carboxylic acid groups, or an anhydride or ester thereof; and a silicone component having siloxane linkages and at least two reactive functional groups selected from hydroxyl groups, amino groups, thiol groups, carboxylic acid groups, anhydride groups, or combinations thereof. A coating composition for preparing an anti-fingerprinting, soft touch coating can include the silicone-containing polyester polyol and a crosslinker reactive with the silicone-containing polyester polyol.
    Type: Grant

  • Stain resistant coating compositions and coatings formed therefrom
    Patent number: 10508216
    Abstract: A stain resistant coating composition can include: (a) a polyester polyol; (b) a silicone component having at least one reactive functional group; and (c) a crosslinker reactive with (a) and (b). The polyester polyol can include a reaction product obtained from a mixture of reactants including: an aliphatic diol; a polyol having 3 or more hydroxyl groups; and an aliphatic cyclic polycarboxylic acid, or an anhydride or ester thereof, that is greater than 10 mole % of the total carboxylic acids, or anhydrides or esters thereof, used to prepare the polyester.
