Patent number: 6599980Abstract: The present invention provides: a coating composition, with which a 1-coat finish of plastic materials such as polyolefin materials can be performed, and which is aqueous and can be baked at 70° C. for 5 min. to have the following performance: high adhesion, excellent beef tallow resistance and alkaline resistance; and a coated article. The aqueous coating composition comprises: a poly(propylene chloride) resin emulsion including an poly(propylene chloride) resin which has a chlorine content of 15 to 25 weight % and a maleic anhydride moiety content of 1.0 to 5.0 weight %; an acrylic resin emulsion including an acrylic resin which is obtained by modifying the poly(propylene chloride) resin of 0 to 30 weight % and has a glass transition temperature of not lower than 90° C.; a polycarbodiimide crosslinking agent; and a resin powder. An article is coated with the above aqueous coating composition.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2001Date of Patent: July 29, 2003Assignees: Toyota Technical Center, U.S.A., Inc., Nippon Bee Research America, Inc., Nippon Bee Chemical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Juhan Kim, Jeffrey Makarewicz, Mamoru Kozaki, Kenichi Yasunaga, Jesse Fritcher, Takashi Watanabe
