Abstract
Wire coating formulations are provided by heating a mixture of aromatic dianhydride, water and a monoalkyl glycol ether, followed by the addition of organic diamine. The resulting mixture is a stable wire coating enamel capable of forming flexible wire enamels upon cure.
Claims7
A method for making a wire coating composition in the form of a stable aqueous solution comprising
- (1) heating a mixture of an organic dianhydride of the formula, ##STR9## monoalkyl ether of ethylene glycol or diethylene glycol and water at a temperature of 70.degree. C. to 135.degree. C. where there is utilized in the mixture from about 0.35 to about 2.5 parts of monoalkyl glycol ether and about 0.05 to about 0.4 part of water, per part of dianhydride, to form a clear solution,
- (2) adding to the solution of (1) about an equal molar amount and up to 25 mole percent excess, based on moles of organic dianhydride of (1), and organic diamine of the formula,
- H.sub.2 NR.sup.1 NH.sub.2,
- where R is a C.sub.(6-30) aromatic organic radical and R.sup.1 is a C.sub.(6-30) organic radical.
