Hydroxy-functionalized polyesters

摘要

A hydroxyfunctional polyester with an OH number of 50-300 mg/g containing structural elements derived from di- or multifunctional acids A, especially carboxylic acid, aliphatic tri- or multifunctional alcohols B and at least 6C aliphatic monocarboxylic acids, where component A contains at least one tri- or multifunctional acid or their anhydrides. A hydroxyfunctional polyester with an OH number of 50-300 mg/g containing structural elements derived from di- or multifunctional acids A, especially carboxylic acid, aliphatic tri- or multifunctional alcohols B and at least 6C aliphatic monocarboxylic acids, where component A has an acid functionality of at least 2.1 and contains at least one tri- or multifunctional acid or their anhydrides. Independent claims are included for: (1) a process for preparation of the polyesters by first step involving reaction of alcohol B with monofunctional carboxlylic acids C in such a ratio that the condensation product BC has on average 1.5 to 3.5 OH groups per molecule and in a second step the branched OH group containing condensation product is reacted with di- or multifunctional acids A; (2) a solid-rich coating agent containing polyester; and (3) a resin paste containing the coating agent.
