Abstract:
1. A coating composition comprising a polymer that comprises an oligomeric macromonomer and a core from which said oligomeric macromonomer extends, wherein said oligomeric macromonomer comprises reactive functional groups and has an average functionality ranging from 1.0 to 30.0 and a molecular weight of ≧1,000 and ≦4160, and wherein said core is <10 weight % of the total polymer weight and wherein the polymer is formed by adding the oligomeric macromonomer to a (meth)acrylate monomer comprising at least two ethylenically unsaturated double bonds to form a mixture and polymerizing the mixture; wherein the core comprises the residue of the (meth)acrylate monomer; and wherein the coating composition further comprises a curing agent that is reactive with the reactive functional groups of the oligomeric macromonomer.
