Hydroxyalkyl carbamate diluent for coating compositions and compositions containing the same

摘要

A coating composition comprises an hydroxyalkyl carbamate compound, an amino cross-linker, a polymer containing active sites which are reactive with the cross-linker and, optionally, an acid catalyst. The hydroxyalkyl carbamate compound serves as a reactive diluent in the composition. The composition is stable at ambient temperature and reactive at elevated temperature to form a cross-linked compound in which the hydroxyalkyl carbamate compound is incorporated.
