International Classification:

B32B 1508

US Classification:

428418, 523414, 525533

Abstract:

The invention provides a resin composition that is the reaction product of an epoxy resin and an anhydride. The resin composition has an epoxy equivalent weight that is substantially the same as the epoxy equivalent weight of the epoxy resin. The resin composition may be used as a coating composition, or may be mixed with water to form a water based coating composition.

Appl. No.:

6/714092

Inventors:

Donald G. Wind - Niles IL

Assignee:

Insilco Corporation - Meriden CT

International Classification:

C08L 6300

US Classification:

523416

Abstract:

A high solids coating composition which comprises 10-96 percent by weight resin solids of a low molecular weight epoxy oligomer, 2-35 percent by weight crosslinking glycoluril-formaldehyde resin and a primary sulfonic acid catalyst. The oligomer is condensed upon heating into a high molecular weight polymer film with simultaneous crosslinking with the crosslinking agent to provide the desired film properties.
