摘要

A binder composition for thermosetting powder paints comprising (i) a polymer that is capable of reacting with epoxy groups and (ii) a crosslinker that contains epoxy groups, wherein the crosslinker comprises at least one C5 to C26 linear or branched aliphatic chain with the proviso that the epoxy groups are carried on at least one aliphatic chain. In order to function as a crosslinker the amount of oxirane-oxygen originating from said crosslinker in the binder composition is higher than 0.1 meq/gram. The crosslinker is, for example, an epoxidized oil, a modified epoxidized oil or an epoxidized alkyd resin. A powder paint comprising the binder composition can contain a suitable catalyst and, optionally, an additional curing agent.
