Aqueous coating composition for exterior surface of can

摘要

An aqueous coating composition for exterior surface of a can, in which the resin component comprises a water-soluble or water-dispersible resin product prepared by reacting a resin having carboxyl functionality (a), an epoxy resin (b) and a tertiary amine (c), at least 50 mole % of the epoxy groups of said epoxy resin (b) being quaternary ammonium salt, provides a coating with a smooth and glossy surface, excellent processability, excellent adhesion properties, excellent retorting resistant properties and the like. Furthermore, the coating composition minimizes a generation of fume in an oven during curing.
