Abstract
Low gloss in a coating derived from a polyester/triglycidyl isocyanurate coating powder is achieved by including in the coating powder 2-10 phr ethylene acrylic acid copolymer, 0.2-1.0 phr of a compound selected from 2-mercapto benzothiazole, metal salts of 2-mercapto benzothiazole, such as zinc 2-mercapto benzothiazole, and up to 10 phr polyolefin wax.
Claims3
In a coating powder composition comprising a polyester resin and triglycidyl isocyanurate, the improvement wherein said coating powder composition further comprises between about 2 and about 10 parts per hundred resin by weight of a copolymer of ethylene and acrylic acid said copolymer consisting essentially of between about 80 and about 95 wt % ethylene and between about 5 and about 20 wt % acrylic acid;
- plus between about 0.2 and about 1.0 parts per hundred resin by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of 2-mercapto benzothiazole, metal salts of 2-mercapto benzothiazole, and mixtures thereof;
- plus between about 2 and about 10 parts per hundred resin by weight polyolefin wax, said coating powder composition being fusable and curable to provide a coating having a 60 .degree. Gardner Haze-Gloss unit level of 25 or below.
