Abstract

An object to be solved by the present invention is to discover a thermosetting coating composition ensuring an excellent finished appearance without a decrease in corrosion resistance, and to provide a coated article with such excellent coating performances. The present invention provides a thermosetting coating composition, comprising a modified epoxy resin (A) resulting from a reaction of an epoxy resin (a1) with a modifier (a2), and optionally with an amine compound (a4); and a blocked polyisocyanate compound (B), the modified epoxy resin (A) comprising, at least in a part of the terminals thereof, a specific organic group, and having a number average molecular weight of 800 to 80,000.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A thermosetting coating composition, comprising a modified epoxy resin (A) resulting from a reaction of an epoxy resin (a1) with a modifier (a2), and optionally with an amine compound (a4); and a blocked polyisocyanate compound (B), the modified epoxy resin (A) comprising, at least in a part of the terminals thereof, an organic group represented by Formula (1) or Formula (2) below, and having a number average molecular weight of 800 to 80,000,

wherein R 1 and R 2 each represent hydrogen, C 1-12 alkyl, or C 1-13 alkyloxymethyl; and R 3 represents hydrogen or methyl,

wherein R 4 and R 5 each represent hydrogen, C 1-12 alkyl, or C 1-13 alkyloxymethyl; R 6 represents hydrogen or methyl; and R 7 , R 8 , R 9 and R 10 each represent hydrogen or C 1-12 alkyl.

2. The thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 , wherein the content ratio of the modified epoxy resin (A) to the blocked polyisocyanate compound (B) is such that the content of the modified epoxy resin (A) is 10 to 90 mass %, and the content of the blocked polyisocyanate compound (B) is 10 to 50 mass %, based on the total mass of resin solids content.

3. The thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a bisphenol skeleton-containing diol (C) having a molecular weight of 280 to 610 represented by Formula (3) below,

wherein R 11 , R 12 , R 14 and R 15 each represent hydrogen, C 1-12 alkyl, or C 1-13 alkyloxymethyl; and R 13 represents hydrogen or methyl.

4. The thermosetting coating composition according to claim 3 , wherein the content of the bisphenol skeleton-containing diol (C) is 0.1 to 20 mass %, based on the total resin solids content of the modified epoxy resin (A), the blocked polyisocyanate compound (B) and the bisphenol skeleton-containing diol (C).

5. The thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 , wherein the modified epoxy resin (A) has amino groups, and is neutralized by an acidic compound.

6. A coated article having a coating film resulting from thermosetting of the thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 .

7. A method for forming a cationic electrodeposition coating film, the method comprising immersing a metal substrate in a bath of an electrodeposition coating composition containing the thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 , and energizing the metal substrate as a negative electrode.

8. A method for forming a coated article, the method comprising immersing a metal substrate in a bath of an electrodeposition coating composition containing the thermosetting coating composition according to claim 1 ; subjecting the immersed metal substrate to an electrodeposition coating; and subjecting the electrodeposition-coated metal substrate to thermosetting.
