COATING PROCESS APPLYING A LOW TEMPERATURE CURING COMPOSITION

摘要

A method for a low temperature cure of a coating composition comprising: applying to a substrate a low temperature curing coating composition consisting essentially of a film forming component consisting essentially of a non-carbamate functional polymeric component selected from the group consisting of polyester, silicone modified polyester, polyurethane, acrylic, alkyd, epoxy, polyamide, phenolic and polysilane polymers and mixtures thereof; a crosslinking component to crosslink the non-carbamate functional polymeric component; a catalyst selected from the group consisting of Lewis acids, perflouroacetic acid, methane sulfonic acid catalyst and mixtures thereof; and additives selected from the group consisting of solvents, flow control agents, pigments, flexibilizing resins, surfactants, waxes, wetting agents, plasticizers, anti-oxidants, UV light absorbers, and mixtures thereof, and subjecting the coated substrate to a cure temperature of between 280 DEG F and 450 DEG F, for a time sufficient to cure the coating.
