Abstract
Improved coating compositions suitable for electrodeposition are described which comprise one or more water-soluble binding agents which can be deposited anodically under the action of applied current in an aqueous medium, and at least partially soluble ammonia complexes of salts of metals which are capable of forming ammoniacates. These coating compositions provide improved throwing power without detrimental effect to the properties of the finished coating.
Claims7
The method of coating a substrate by electrodeposition comprising (1) providing a paint formulation comprising (A) at least one water-soluble binding agent which can be deposited anodically under the action of applied current, and (B) in an amount sufficient to increase the throwing power of said paint formulation a partially soluble ammonia complex of a salt of a metal of the group consisting of zinc, cadmium, copper, silver, nickel, and cobalt which is capable of forming an ammoniacate;
- and (2) forming an electrical circuit comprising an anode and cathode with said anode eing said substrate being coated and said substrate being in contact with said paint formulation of (1) while an electrodeposition current is applied to said substrate, the throwing power of said paint being increased due to the presence of said ammonia complex.
