Abstract

Abstract The invention provides novel polyesters based on 100- 75 equivalent percent of a phthalic acid, 0- 25 equivalent percent of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid and 150- 225 equivalent percent of a C5 - C12 diol. The polyesters can be admixed with amino resins and an acid catalyst to form a coating composition which can be stoved into a hard tough coating.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 67 words
A method for preparing a polyester having an acid value below 15 and a hydroxyl value of 130-400, comprising heating and reacting a mixture consisting essentially of 75-100 equivalent percent of a phthalic acid, 0-25 equivalent percent of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid containing 4-40 carbon atoms and 150-225 equivalent percent based on total carboxylic acid equivalents of an aliphtic diol containing 5-12 carbon atoms in the molecule.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 67 words
A method for preparing a polyester having an acid value below 15 and a hydroxyl value of 130-400, comprising heating and reacting a mixture consisting essentially of 75-100 equivalent percent of a phthalic acid, 0-25 equivalent percent of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid containing 4-40 carbon atoms and 150-225 equivalent percent based on total carboxylic acid equivalents of an aliphtic diol containing 5-12 carbon atoms in the molecule.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A method according to claim 1 in which the diol has 5 to 12 carbon atoms in a straight chain and two primary hydroxyl groups.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
A method according to claim 2 in which the diol contains 5-7 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 64 words
A polyester composition consisting essentially of 75-100 equivalent percent of radicals derived from a phthalic acid, 0-25 equivalent percent of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid containing 4-40 carbon atoms and 150-225 equivalent percent based on the total carboxylic acid equivalents of an aliphatic diol containing 5-12 carbon atoms in the molecule, the polyester having an acid value below 15 and a hydroxyl value of 130-400.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 64 words
A polyester composition consisting essentially of 75-100 equivalent percent of radicals derived from a phthalic acid, 0-25 equivalent percent of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid containing 4-40 carbon atoms and 150-225 equivalent percent based on the total carboxylic acid equivalents of an aliphatic diol containing 5-12 carbon atoms in the molecule, the polyester having an acid value below 15 and a hydroxyl value of 130-400.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
A polyester composition according to claim 4 in which the aliphatic diol has 5 to 12 carbon atoms in a straight chain and two primary alcohol groups.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
A polyester composition according to claim 5 in which the diol contains 5-7 carbon atoms.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 19 words
A polyester composition according to claim 4 wherein said composition exhibits a viscosity at 20° C. below 4000 poise.
