Abstract: The present invention provides a low-bake powder coating composition comprising A) 10 to 60 wt % of at least one glycidyl-functionalised (meth)acrylic resin, B) 40 to 90 wt % of at least one carboxyl functionalised polyester resin produced by reacting of at least one hydroxyl functionalised polyester resin with cyclic, aliphatic and/or aromatic dicarboxylic acids and/or their anhydrides, and C) 0.01 to 50 wt % of at least one coating additive, pigment and/or filler, Wherein the wt % based on the total weight of the powder coating composition. The powder coating composition of this invention provides compositions which are low-bake compositions providing coatings having high grade of flexibility for outdoor applications. Particularly and surprisingly, the powder coating composition of this invention furthermore provides no blooming of the coatings and excellent flow and appearance properties.

Abstract: A powder coating composition obtainable by homogeneous mixing of at least two separately produced powder coating compositions as powder coating bases to yield coating compositions having good storage stability and coatings with controlled low gloss levels as well as high exterior durability and stable flexibility.

Abstract: The present invention provides a powder coating composition comprising (A) 40 to 99 wt % of at least one saturated carboxylic functional polyester resin having an acid value in the range 5 to 200, (B) 1 to 60 wt % of at least one glycidylester and/or glycidylether selected from the group consisting of polyglycidyl ethers based on aliphatic, aromatic and/or cycloaliphatic epoxy resins, triglycidyl trimellitate (TML) and diglycidyl terephthalate (DGT), and (C) 0.01 to 40 wt % of at least one coating additive, pigment and/or filler, the wt % being based on the total weight of the powder coating composition. The powder coating composition provides a good storage stability and giving coatings with good coating properties, particularly, high exterior durability and stable flexibility. The compositions are suitable for the coil coating technology, that means, for coating applications also under high speed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a powder coating composition obtainable by homogeneous mixing of at least two separately produced powder coating compositions as powder coating bases, especially suitable for the coil coating technology, that means, for coating applications also under high speed, e.g., at coating speeds of about >50 m/min providing coatings with a high flexibility for post forming. In spite of substitution of TGIC, the powder coating composition of this invention are coating compositions having a good storage stability and giving coatings with any desired gloss level as well as good coating properties, particularly, high exterior durability and stable flexibility and the compositions are suitable for the coil coating technology, that means, for coating applications also under high speed.

Abstract: An aqueous resin composition usable in sizing compositions for the treatment of mineral fibers is disclosed. This aqueous composition comprises a resin obtained by the condensation, in a basic medium, of formaldehyde, urea, and melamine, in the presence of a polyol characterized by a functionality of at least 3. This resin is stable for long periods of times and capable of dilution by a factor of at least 100%.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for the selective preparation of ortho-hydroxybenzyl alcohols and, in particular, ortho-hydroxybenzyl alcohol. According to the invention, the reaction of a phenol with an aldehyde in an initially anhydrous medium and in the presence of a catalytic amount of a metal phenate, results in the selective production of ortho-hydroxybenzyl alcohols.
