Abstract: Thermoplastic coatings have a high degree of extensibility, gloss retention, good sprayability and other desirable properties are obtained from ungelled, storage-stable compositions comprising the reaction product of (A) an interpolymer of a hydroxyalkyl ester of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and a copolymerizable compound, (B) an organic polyisocyanate, and (C) a polymeric polyol of low glass transition temperature. Rather than using the interpolymer itself, it is also possible to form useful products by reacting (B) and (C) with a hydroxyalkyl ester monomer in combustion with another copolymerizable monomer. These compositions when used as coatings are adherent, durable and highly extensible. The coatings are particularly useful on resilient and rubbery substrates such as foam rubber, polyurethane foams and vinyl foam and on metal surfaces such as mild steel and aluminum.

Abstract: Cured coatings having a high degree of extensibility and other desirable properties are obtained from compositions comprising a hydroxyl-containing, urethane reaction product containing a polyester component and an amine-aldehyde resin. Preferred compositions contain a polymeric polyol of low glass transition temperature. These compositions are storage-stable in one package, and the cured coatings are adherent, durable and highly extensible. These coatings are particularly useful on resilient and rubbery substrates, such as foam rubber, polyurethane foam and vinyl foam, and on soft metal surfaces such as mild steel and aluminum.

Abstract: Compositions useful as sealing primers for elastomeric coatings comprise (A) the reaction product of a polyurethane polyol and a polycarboxylic acid or acid anhydride, and (B) an aminoplast resin. When used as primers, the compositions of the instant invention increase the durability, gloss retention and adhesion of elastomeric coatings. Such primers are particularly useful on resilient and rubbery substrates such as EPDM rubber, foam rubber, polyurethane foam and vinyl foam.

Abstract: Cured coatings having a high degree of extensibility and other desirable properties are obtained from compositions comprising a hydroxyl-containing, urethane reaction product containing a polyether component and an amine-aldehyde resin. Preferred compositions contain a polyether polyol of low glass transition temperature. These compositions are storage-stable in one package, and the cured coatings are adherent, durable and highly extensible. These coatings are particularly useful on resilient and rubbery substrates, such as foam rubber, polyurethane foam and vinyl foam, and on soft metal surfaces such as mild steel and aluminum.

Abstract: High solids, aqueous solvent-thinnable compositions are prepared by combining relatively low molecular weight, hydroxyl-containing organic materials with aminoplast resins. In general, the hydroxyl-containing materials are characterized by a room temperature water thinnability of 3 or more parts of water per 100 parts of organic material. The compositions can be used in a wide variety of different applications, and find particular utility in the formulation of unique coating compositions.

Abstract: It has been found that aqueous coating compositions comprising acid-solubilized, imine-modified, carboxylic acid group-containing acrylic resins can be electrodeposited. These compositions deposit on the cathode to provide coatings having excellent properties.
