Abstract:
A thermosettable paint composition suitable for application from a solid block thereof as a hot melt to a substrate heated to a temperature which is hot enough to melt a surface portion of said solid block upon contact therewith, said composition comprising:a pigment; anda thermosettable mixture of resins, having an averaged glass transition temperature (Tg) of greater than -30.degree. C. and less than +60.degree. C. and having a melt viscosity of from about 0.1 to 12 poise when measured at 180.degree. C. and at a shear rate of 10,000 Hz;wherein said mixture of resins comprises:a first resin having a glass transition temperature T.sub.g of greater than +20.degree. C., anda second resin having a glass transition temperature T.sub.g of below +20.degree. C. and a melt viscosity of 0.1 to 7 poise when measured at 180.degree. C. and at a shear rate of 10,000 Hz,wherein said pigment is dispersed in said first resin and this dispersion is admixed with at least said second resin to make said solventless paint composition.
