Abstract:
1. A process for coating a conductive substrate comprising: (i) contacting said substrate with an aqueous composition in which the major component is water having polymerizable reactants dispersed in said water and an inorganic particulate carrier having a particle size less than 20 microns and having sorbed on said inorganic particulate carrier a catalyst for said polyrnerizable reactants, wherein said catalyst Is a metal containing catalyst having a water solubility less than 1% by weight in water at 25° C. based upon the weight of metal in said catalyst and is a liquid when sorbed onto said inorganic particulate carrier; (ii) passing an electric current between said substrate and a counter-electrode in electrical contact with said aqueous composition until a coating of a desired thickness is deposited from said composition onto said substrate to obtain a coated substrate; (iii) removing said coated substrate from said aqueous composition; and (iv) curing said coating.
