Patent ID: 7759436

Claim:
A film-forming material comprising: a resin, wherein the resin includes at least one pendent group comprising a nonionic metal coordinating structure and at least one group reactive with a crosslinker, the nonionic metal coordinating structure comprising at least two electron-rich functional groups independently selected from the group consisting of oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur, silicon, unsaturated carbon, ester, ketone, ether, and hydroxyl, wherein two of the electron rich functional groups are in an alpha- or beta- position relative to each other; and a crosslinker comprising at least two functional groups reactive with the resin; wherein the resin comprises the formula: wherein, X 1 and X 2 are independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, epoxide, or amine functional monovalent radicals; each R 1 and R 2 is independently an alkylene or arylene divalent radical; R 3 is an alkylene or arylene divalent radical comprising the nonionic metal coordinating structure; n is a number from 1 to about 12; m is a number from 0 to about 12; and p is a number from 1 to about 12.
