Metal effect pigments for use in the cathodic electrodeposition painting, method for the production and use of the same, and electrodeposition paint

Abstract

The invention relates to electrocoat material pigments, said electrocoat material pigments comprising metal effect pigment platelets coated with at least one coating material, said coating material comprising one or more functional groups for adhesion or attachment to the pigment surface and at least one amino-functional group, said amino-functional group being protonatable or positively charged. The invention further relates to a process for producing these electrocoat material pigments and to the use thereof, and to a cathodic electrocoat material which comprises the inventive pigments.
