Patent ID: 11884840

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to film-forming compositions comprising: a) a non-chlorinated, linear polyolefin polymer comprising 0.5 to 10 percent by weight residues of an ethylenically unsaturated anhydride or acid; b) an aminoplast; and c) a component comprising: i) at least one non-chlorinated hydrocarbon having at least 18 carbon atoms and optionally aromatic groups and/or oxygen heteroatoms; and/or ii) an alkyd resin. The present invention is also drawn to methods of improving fuel resistance of a coated article, comprising: (1) applying the film-forming composition to a substrate to form a coated substrate; (2) optionally subjecting the coated substrate to a temperature for a time sufficient to cure the film-forming composition; (3) applying at least one curable film-forming composition to the coated substrate to form a multi-layer coated substrate; and (4) subjecting the multi-layer coated substrate to a temperature and for a time sufficient to cure all of the film-forming compositions.
