Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The current invention includes coating compositions having a lignin, methods for coating substrates using the coating compositions, and substrates coated with the coating compositions. In some embodiments of the invention, a coating composition having a mixture of a) a lignin, b) a solvent, and c) a crosslinker, wherein the lignin has a neutral or negative charge. The current invention also includes a coating composition having a mixture of a) a lignin, b) a polymeric epoxy crosslinker having glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and c) a solvent. Additionally, the current invention includes a coating composition having a mixture of a) a lignin, b) a solvent, and c) a phenolic crosslinker.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A methodof coating a substrate being a can or packaging for food or beverages, comprising the steps of: applying a coating composition comprising: an unmodified lignin; a polymeric epoxy crosslinker, wherein the polymeric epoxy crosslinker includes glycidyl (meth)acrylate; and a solvent to the can or packaging for food or beverages, and curing the coating composition at a temperature in a range from about 130 degrees Celsius to about 250 degrees Celsius to obtain a coated can or packaging for food or beverages; wherein the coating composition is substantially free of bisphenol A. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the coating composition includes polymeric dispersions having between about 10% to about 60% by weight polymeric solids. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lignin has a neutral or a negative charge. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition is sprayed or roll coated onto the substrate. 5. A can or packaging usable for packaging food that is coated with the coating composition of claim 1 . 6. A method of coating a substrate being a can or packaging for food or beverages, comprising the steps of: applying a coating composition that is substantially free of bisphenol A, said coating composition comprising: an unmodified lignin; a polymeric epoxy crosslinker, wherein the polymeric epoxy crosslinker includes glycidyl (meth)acrylate; and a solvent to the can or packaging for food or beverages and thermally curing the coating composition at a temperature in a range from about 130 degrees Celsius to about 250 degrees Celsius to obtain a coated can or packaging for food or beverages. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the lignin has a neutral or a negative charge. 8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the coating composition includes polymeric dispersions having between about 10% to about 60% by weight polymeric solids. 9. A can or packaging usable for packaging food coated with the coating composition of claim 6 .
