  • Clear coating for top coating of automobiles, method of forming multilayer coating and automotive body
    Patent number: 6562903
    Abstract: A clear coating for top coating of automobiles which comprises a half-esterified acid group-containing acrylic copolymer (I) and a silicate-grafted acrylic copolymer (II) as resin constituents, said half-esterified acid group-containing acrylic copolymer (I) being obtainable by: preparing a copolymer from an acid anhydride group-containing, radical-polymerizable monomer (I-a) and another radical-polymerizable monomer (I-b) and then half-esterifying said acid anhydride group with a low-molecular alcohol compound, said silicate-grafted copolymer (II) being obtainable by grafting a silicate compound (II-B) onto a hydrolyzable silyl-containing copolymer (II-A), the amount of said silicate compound (II-B) grafted being 5 to 50% by mass (on solids basis) relative to the total amount of said resin constituents.

  • Process for multilayer coating film and automotive bodies
    Patent number: 6472020
    Abstract: A process for forming a multilayer coating film on automotive bodies which comprises applying a clear coating for top coating, by the wet-on-wet technique, onto a base coating containing a color pigment and/or a luster pigment as applied to a coated automotive panel and then heating the coat layers for curing, said base coating comprising, as resin constituents, a product obtained by grafting a silicate compound (A) onto a hydroxyl-containing acrylic resin or polyester resin and a melamine type curing agent.
