## Abstract

A composition useful as an aqueous anionic electrodepositable coating comprises a film-former of from about 67-95% by weight of a phosphated polyepoxide resin, from about 5-33% by weight of a carboxyl group-containing vinyl addition resin, and up to about 40% by weight of the film-former of a crosslinking agent.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A coating composition comprising as a film-former:
(A) up to about 40 percent by weight of crosslinking agent based other than the vinyl addition resin on film-former resin content;
(B) the remainder of the film former comprising a blend of:
(i) from about 67 to 95 percent by weight based on resin solids of the blend of an ungelled phosphated epoxy which is derived from reacting a 1,2-epoxy group of a polyepoxide resin and a phosphoric acid in a ratio of 0.1 to 1 mole of a phosphoric acid per equivalent of the epoxy group; and
(ii) from about 5 to 33 percent by weight based on resin solids of the blend of a vinyl addition resin which is derived from copolymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers, at least one of which is a carboxyl group-containing monomer, which has an acid value of from 20 to 350.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1, wherein the polyepoxide resin is a polyglycidyl ether of a polyol which has an epoxy equivalent weight of 170 to 5000.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

A coating composition of claim 2, wherein the epoxy equivalent weight is from about 850 to 3000.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1, wherein at least one of the ethylenically unsaturated monomers contains an N-(alkoxymethyl)amide group.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

A coating composition of claim 4 wherein the N-(alkoxymethyl)amide group-containing monomer is N-ethoxymethylacrylamide or N-butoxymethylacrylamide.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1 wherein the crosslinking agent is an aminoplast, phenoplast or blocked polyisocynate.

### Claim 7

An anionic electrodepositable composition comprising as a film-former:
(A) up to about 40 percent by weight of crosslinking agent based on film-former resin content;
(B) the remainder of the film former comprising an aqueous dispersion of a base-neutralized blend of:
(i) from about 67 to 95 percent by weight based on resin solids of the blend of an ungelled phosphated epoxy consisting essentially of a reaction product of a polyepoxide resin and a phosphoric acid in a ratio of 0.1 to 1 mole of phosphoric acid per equivalent of the polyepoxide epoxy group; and
(ii) from about 5 to 33 percent by weight based on resin solids of the blend of a vinyl addition resin which is derived from copolymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers, at least one of which is carboxy group-containing monomer, which has an acid value of from 20 to 350.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

An electrodepositable composition of claim 7, wherein the polyepoxide resin has an epoxy equivalent weight of 170 to 5000.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

An electrodepositable composition of claim 8, wherein the epoxy equivalent weight is 850 to 3000.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7)

An electrodepositable composition of claim 7, wherein the base is diisopropanolamine or dimethylethanolamine.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1 wherein the phosphated epoxy is derived from reacting the polyepoxide resin and the phosphoric acid in a ratio of 0.1 to 0.5 mole of phosphoric acid per equivalent of epoxy groups.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

A coating composition of claim 10 wherein the phosphated epoxy is derived from reacting the polyepoxide resin and the phosphoric acid in a ratio of 0.1 to 0.5 mole of phosphoric acid per equivalent of epoxy groups.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1 wherein the vinyl addition resin has an acid value of about 20 to about 350.

### Claim 14 (depends on 1)

A coating composition of claim 1 wherein the vinyl addition resin has an acid value of about 45 to about 150.

### Claim 15 (depends on 7)

A coating composition of claim 7 wherein the vinyl addition resin has an acid value of about 20 to about 350.

### Claim 16 (depends on 7)

A coating composition of claim 7 wherein the vinyl addition resin has an acid value of about 45 to about 150.
