Cationic electrodeposition using aqueous dispersions of quaternary ammonium carbonate-containing polymers

摘要

A method of cationic electrodeposition on an electroconductive substrate is disclosed. The method of the invention employs as the electrocoating vehicle an aqueous dispersion of a quaternary ammonium carbonate-containing resin. Electrodeposition of the resin is accomplished without generating harmful acid from the counter ion. The carbonate counter ion is continuously evolved from the electrodeposition bath at the anode as carbon dioxide.
