Abstract: 1476461 Aqueous coating compositions KANSAI PAINT CO Ltd 30 Oct 1974 [16 July 1974] 47063/74 Headings C3R, C3P and C3B An aqueous coating composition comprises aa aqueous medium having dispersed therein an unsaturated resinous or resin-forming material having a free carboxyl group neutralized with a base, a phenolic resol resin, and a copper compound, the amount of the copper compound being 0À0005 to 5% wt. in terms of copper metal, based on the weight of the said resinous or resin-forming material, the aqueous medium being water or a mixture of water and a watermiscible organic solvent in an amount not more than 50% wt. based on the weight of the water. Suitable copper compounds are copper naphthenate, copper benzoate, copper laurate, copper palmitate, copper stearate, copper oleate, copper abietate, the copper salt of maleinized oleic acid or fumarized tung oil, copper hydroxide, copper oxide, copper sulphate, copper chloride, copper phosphate, copper chromate and basic copper carbonate. The said resinous or resin-forming material may be selected from a maleinized drying oil, a maleinized epoxy-resin ester, a polyester resin having a free carboxyl group, a fatty acid modified alkyd resin and a maleinized polybutadiene. The said resinous or resin-forming material preferably has an iodine value of at least 20 and an acid value of at least 20. Optional additives include colouring pigments, e.g. titanium dioxide, red iron oxide and carbon black; extenders e.g. clay, silica, talc and calcium carbonate, and other conventional additives. The composition can be applied by immersion, brushing, spraying or by electrophoretic coating. In the examples aqueous coating compositions are prepared from (1) a half-ester of maleinized linseed oil, ethyleneglycol monoethyl ether, an aqueous monomethylolated phenolic resin, triethylamine, water and any one of the above copper compounds; (2) a half-ester of a maleinized epoxy resin prepared by reacting an epoxy resin with linseed oil fatty acid and then with maleic anhydride and then with n-butanol ; ethyleneglycol monoethyl ether, copper naphthenate, water, an aqueous dimethylolated bisphenol. A resol resin and KOH; (3) the half ester of the maleinized epoxy resin in (2), ethyleneglycol monobutyl ether, diethanolamine, water titanium white, carbon black, copper hydroxide, copper oxide and a monomethylolated p-tertiary-butyl phenol resin; (4) a resin prepared by reacting 1,2-polybutadiene first with linseed oil and then with maleic anhydride and then with n-butanol; ethyleneglycol monoethyl ether, triethylamine, water, iron oxide, carbon black, the half-ester of maleinized linseed oil as in (1), copper hydroxide and an aqueous monomethylolated phenolic resin; (5) a resin prepared by reacting a copolymer of allyl alcohol and styrene first with linseed oil fatty acid and then with dehyrated castor oil, soybean oil and maleic anhydride and then with ethyleneglycol monoethylether; triethylamine, water, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, copper stearate and an aqueous monomethylolated phenolic resin. The resulting aqueous compositions are used in electrophoretic coating baths comprising a zinc-phosphated mild steel anode and a non- treated mild steel cathode.
