  • Patent number: 5155170
    Abstract: The instant invention involves a process for forming a low formaldehyde, essentially color-free coating composition by applying the composition preferably to a wood substrate and curing. The composition comprises a blend of a polyhydroxy-containing polymer, an hexaalkoxymethylolmelamine, a polyacetal having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 and A is C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 allyl or aryl and an acid catalyst. The coating compositions of the instant invention exhibit extremely low color and give off a significantly reduced amount of formaldehyde when cured in comparison to conventional prior art, acid catalyzed melamine/formaldehyde cured coatings.
    Type: Grant
