Claims16
A process for preparing a coating composition which comprises:
- (1) forming a solution of an aminoplast selected from the group consisting of alkoxymethyl derivatives of urea, melamine and methyl-, ethyl- and benzoguanamines and a styrene-(meth)allyl alcohol copolymer in a polar solvent;
- and
- (2) admixing the solution with a non-aqueous solution of a hydroxy-containing resin to obtain a uniform solution;
- wherein the styrene-(meth)allyl alcohol copolymer has a molecular weight in the range of about 800 to about 2500 and a hydroxy content in the range of about 4.0 to about 10.0 weight percent and wherein the hydroxy-containing resin is selected from the group consisting of acrylic and polyester hydroxyl-containing resins, and has hydroxy content of from about 1.3 weight percent to about 10 weight percent.

A process for preparing a coating composition which comprises:
- (1) forming a solution of an aminoplast selected from the group consisting of alkoxymethyl derivatives of urea, melamine and methyl-, ethyl- and benzoguanamines and a styrene-(meth)allyl alcohol copolymer in a polar solvent wherein the ratio of aminoplast to styrene(meth)allyl alcohol copolymer is in the range of about 3:2 to about 50:1;
- (2) admixing the solution with a non-aqueous solution of one or more hydroxy-containing resins to obtain a uniform solution wherein the ratio of aminoplast to hydroxy-containing resin is in the range of about 1:1 to about 1:10;
- wherein the styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer has a molecular weight in the range of about 800 to 2500 and a hydroxy content in the range of about 4.0 to 10.0 weight percent and comprises from about 1 to about 10 weight percent of the total solids of the coating composition;
- and wherein the hydroxy-containing resin is selected from the group consisting of acrylic and polyester hydroxyl-containing resins, and has hydroxy content of from about 1.3 weight percent to about 10 weight percent and wherein the total solids of the coating composition is from 30 to 70 weight %.

A process for preparing a coating composition which comprises:
- (1) forming a solution of styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer of molecular weight in the range of about 800 to 2500 and a hydroxy content of about 4.0 to about 10.0 and hexamethoxymethylmelamine in a polar solvent wherein the ratio of hexamethoxymethylmelamine and styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer is in the range of about 3:2 to 50:1;
- and
- (2) adding to the solution a non-aqueous solution of one or more hydroxy-containing resins and mixing to obtain a uniform solution wherein the ratio of hexamethoxy methylmelamine to hydroxy-containing resin is in the range of about 1:1 to about 1:10;
- wherein about 1 to about 10 weight % of the total solids of the coating composition is the styrene-allyl alcohol copolymer;
- and wherein the hydroxy-containing resin is selected from the group consisting of acrylic and polyester hydroxyl-containing resins, and has hydroxy content of from about 1.3 weight percent to about 10 weight percent and wherein the total solids of the coating composition is from 30 to 70 weight %.
