     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention relates to an aqueous coating composition which comprises incorporating an aqueous aminoplast resin into an aqueous resin obtained by rendering aqueous with an organic amine, etc., a copolymer comprised of hydroxyl-group-containing alkyl(meth)acrylate, di(meth)acrylate of glycol or polyoxyalkylene glycol, α, β monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and a vinyl monomer copolymerizable therewith, a process for the production of the aqueous coating composition and an aqueous coating. Especially, it relates to an aqueous coating composition which is excellent in water resistance and gloss and in which its solvent content is reduced, a process for the production thereof and an aqueous coating. 
     DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART 
     The outer surfaces of beverage cans containing soft drinks, etc., and food cans containing food are covered with coatings which prevent corrosion of the can materials, enhance the aesthetic goods value and can withstand the heat treatment in food sterilization treatment. In these conventional coatings, organic-solvent-containing solutions of epoxy/amino type resin, acryl/amino type resin, polyester/amino type resin, etc., are coated by a roll coater and the coatings are baked hard in a gas oven. However, these coatings cause volatilization of a large amount of solvents at the baking time, give rise to air pollution, and further, are undesirable from the viewpoint of resource saving. Accordingly, it has been desired to develop aqueous coatings which can solve these problems. 
     Known aqueous coatings are classified into two types water-dispersible and water-soluble. Many of the water-dispersible type coatings are usually synthesized by an emulsion polymerization method using a surfactant and therefore, have the defect that the surfactant used remains in a formed coating and lowers water resistance. On the other hand, there is a process which comprises synthesizing acid-content (carboxyl group)-containing resins in an organic solvent instead of using any surfactant, and neutralizing the resins with a volatile base to render them dispersible or water-soluble materials. However, these aqueous coatings require an acid content of not less than 20 of acid value in a basic resin structure, and have the defect that they are inferior in water resistance, alkali resistance, etc., i.e., they lack the basic coating properties. 
     Further, avoidance of the above-mentioned defects has led to a proposal of an aqueous coating in which the content of α, β-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid is reduced to 3 to 10% by using a monoacrylic ester of glycol such as mono(meth)acrylates of polyethylene glycol (Japanese Patent Publication No. 1735/1977). 
     This aqueous coating has advantages that water resistance is improved and that it is excellent in alkali resistance and antirust strength. However, it has a defect of being inferior in coating properties, such as softening of a coated film, occurrence of blisters, decrease of gloss, etc., which are caused by severe heat treatment with boiling water, retort at 117° C. to 125° C., etc., used in food sterilization treatment of beverage cans, food cans, etc. 
     Further, the outer surfaces of beverage cans and food cans have to be coated with coatings having excellent gloss in order to enhance the aesthetic goods value. However, the above coating has not reached such a level as would meet the requirement. 
     The conventional aqueous coatings contain not less than 10% by weight of an organic solvent for storage stability of the coatings and improvement of leveling property in formation of the coatings. Accordingly, they are insufficient in terms of air pollution and resource saving with regard to solvent volatilization at the baking time. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     It is an object of this invention to provide an aqueous coating composition which can give a coating excellent in water resistance and antirust, a process for the production thereof and such an aqueous coating. 
     It is another object of this invention to provide an aqueous coating composition which can give a coating having water resistance and withstandability against heat treatment at the time of food sterilization treatment of beverage cans and food cans, a process for the production thereof and such an aqueous coating. 
     It is yet another object of this invention to provide an aqueous coating composition which can give a coating so excellent in gloss as to increase the aesthetic goods value, a process for the production thereof and such an aqueous coating. 
     Further, it is still another object of this invention to provide an aqueous coating composition which has a small organic solvent content, a process for the production thereof and such an aqueous coating. 
     This invention provides an aqueous coating composition comprised of an aqueous resin obtained by neutralizing with a volatile base, a copolymer comprised of 
     (a) 5 to 65% by weight of hydroxyalkylacrylate or methacrylate in which the alkyl group has a carbon number of 1 to 5, 
     (b) 5 to 50% by weight of diacrylate or dimethacrylate of alkylene glycol or polyoxyalkylene glycol, 
     (c) 2 to 20% by weight of α,β-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, and 
     (d) 20 to 88% by weight of a vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the above compounds (a), (b) and (c), and an aqueous amine formaldehyde condensate. 
     Moreover, this invention provides a process for the production of an aqueous coating composition which comprises copolymerizing the above components (a), (b), (c) and (d) in an organic solvent in the presence of a polymerization initiator to convert these components to a precrosslinked ungelled copolymer, neutralizing said copolymer by addition of a volatile base to obtain an aqueous resin, then mixing said aqueous resin with an aqueous amine formaldehede condensate, and thereafter, distilling the organic solvent off. 
     Furthermore, this invention provides an aqueous coating comprised of the above aqueous resin and aqueous amine formaldehyde condensate. 
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The composition of this invention is described more in detail hereinbelow. 
     Examples of the component (a), i.e., C 1  -C 5  hydroxyalkylacrylate or methacrylate of this invention, are hydroxymethylacrylate, hydroxyethylacrylate, hydroxypropylacrylate, hydroxyamylacrylate, hydroxybutylacrylate and methacrylates corresponding thereto. Preferably used are hydroxymethylacrylate, hydroxyethylacrylate and methacrylates corresponding thereto. 
     The component (b), i.e., diacrylate or dimethacrylate of alkylene glycol or polyoxyalkylene glycol, is represented by the following general formula. ##STR1## wherein R 1 , R 2  and R 3  represent H or CH 3  and n represents an integer of from 1 to 50, preferably from 1 to 8. 
     More specifically, those represented by the above formula in which n is 1 to 8 are preferable, i.e., ethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, propylene glycol diacrylate, dipropylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, tripropylene glycol diacrylate, tetraethylene glycol diacrylate, tetrapropylene glycol diacrylate, pentaethylene glycol diacrylate, pentapropylene glycol diacrylate, hexaethlene glycol diacrylate, hexapropylene glycol diacrylate and methacrylates corresponding thereto. 
     Examples of the component (c), i.e., α,β-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, are acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, etc., and especially, preferable are acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. 
     Examples of the component (d), i.e., vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the above components (a) to (c), are alkylesters of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid such as ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, cyclohexyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, stearyl methacrylate and cyclohexyl methacrylate, aromatic vinyl compounds such as styrene, vinyl toluene and α-methylstyrene, vinyl acetate, vinyl ethyl ether, etc. 
     The content of the component (a) in the copolymer resin is 5 to 65% by weight, preferably 5 to 20% by weight. If the content of the component (a) is smaller than the above lower limit, the number of crosslinkage points is not sufficient. As a result, the water resistance of the resultant coating is made inferior, and the coating stability is made insufficient since the number of hydrophilic groups is small. On the other hand, if the content of the component (a) is larger than the above upper limit, too large a number of crosslinkage points results in inferior flexibility of the resultant coating. 
     The component (b) is used in an amount of 5 to 50% by weight, of the copolymer resin. If the amount is less than the above lower limit, the precrosslinkage effect can not rather be obtained, and the improvement of water resistance is poor. If the amount is more than the above upper limit, the flexibility is made inferior. The above range is one in which the improvement of water resistance and the flexibility can be well balanced. 
     The content of the component (c) in the copolymer resin is 2 to 20% by weight, preferably 5 to 15% by weight. As far as the coating composition is rendered aqueous, the smaller the content is, the better the water resistance is. This purpose can be achieved if the content is not less than the above lower limit. However, if the content exceeds the above upper limit, the water resistance is made insufficient. Further, incorporation of the component (d) in the range from 20 to 88% by weight in the copolymer makes it possible to adjust the coating hardness and flexibility of the composition. 
     The copolymer of this invention can be obtained in the form of a precrosslinked ungelled copolymer by copolymerizing the above components (a) to (d) in an organic solvent by the use of peroxide or azo compound as a catalyst. Examples of the peroxide include benzoyl peroxide, acetyl peroxide, succinic acid peroxide, m-toluoryl peroxide, t-butyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, t-butyl peroxyisobutylate, 1-1-bis(t-butylperoxy)3,3,5-trimethyl cyclohexane, lauroyl peroxide, etc. Examples of the azo compound include 2,2&#39;-azobisisobutylonitrile, dimethyl-2,2&#39;-azobisisobutylate, 2,2&#39;-azobis-2,4-dimethylbaleronitrile, 4,4&#39;-azobis-4-cyanovaleric acid, 1,1&#39;-azobiscyclohexane carbonitrile, etc. 
     The synthesis of the copolymer without gellation can be carried out at a temperature of 90° to 120° C. in a comparatively low polymerization solid content of not more than 50% by weight, preferably 30 to 45% by weight. The resulting copolymer solution scarcely exhibits ultraviolet ray absorption as compared with those before the polymerization. This fact also shows that the charged monomers have been entirely copolymerized under the above conditions, and it is surprising that the precrosslinkage without gellation is possible. 
     The copolymer comprised of the above four components is rendered aqueous by the use of ammonia or organic amine. Examples of the organic amine include monoethanol amine, dimethyl amine, diethyl amine, triethyl amine, triethanol amine, diethyl ethanol amine, dimethylethanol amine, diethylethanol amine, etc. 
     After the copolymer is rendered aqueous or after an aqueous aminoplast resin is incorporated, the organic solvent in the solution is distilled off at reduced pressure of about 50 to about 200 torr at a temperature in the range from 40° to 80° C. to give a water-soluble or water-dispersible resin solution. 
     For this reason, in view of the distilling-off at a post-step, it is preferable to use, in the synthesis, an organic solvent having a boiling point of not higher than 180° C. When consideration is given to temperatures at the synthesis time and solubility of the copolymer in an organic solvent, it is desirable to use a solvent having a boiling point in the range from 75° to 180° C.; Examples of such a solvent are alcohol-type solvents such as isopropyl alcohol, n-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, n-amyl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol, etc., and an ether-type solvents such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether, ethylene glycol monobuthyl ether. 
     As the aqueous amine formaldehyde condensate in this invention, used alone or in combination are alkyletherified melamine resin, alkyletherified urea resin, alkyletherified guanamine resin, alkyletherified resin of diguanamine in which two triazine rings are bonded to its phenylene nucleus, and alkyletherified glycol resin, alkyletherified guanamine resine. Completely etherified hexamethoxymelamine is preferably used. 
     The aqueous resin which the aqueous-rendering treatment has rendered water-soluble or water-dispersible is converted to a coating by mixing it with an aqueous aminoplast resin and optionally adding 0.1 to 1.0 part by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of resin solid content, of an amine-blocked acid catalyst as a curing agent such as p-toluene benzene sulfonic acid, dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid, dinonyl naphthalene disulfonic acid. It is also possible to incorporate thereinto a water-soluble resin and/or water-dispersible resin generally used as a resin for an aqueous coating resin. Examples of such a resin are water-soluble polyester resin, maleic acid-added fatty acid, water-soluble or water-dispersible epoxy resin, polyol such as bisphenol-A propylene oxide adduct, ethylene oxide adduct, etc., and the like. 
     Similarly, it is also possible to add a levelling agent, antifoaming agent and/or lubricating agent. Further, when a pigment paste is prepared by mixing and kneading a pigment with the aforesaid copolymer resin solution from which the solvent is removed, the pigment paste can be also converted to a coating in a similar way to that mentioned above. 
     The aqueous coating composition of this invention can be applied by known means such as roll coat, spray, brush, etc. 
     The aqueous coating composition of this invention has water resistance capable of withstanding the heat treatment carried out at the time of sterilizing cans to be used for food and beverage. It also forms a coated film having excellent gloss increasing the aesthetic value of can material and has excellent coating stability and flow coating capability even when the organic solvent content is not more than 5% based on the entirety of coating composition.
