Electrodeposition coating compositions and articles coated therewith
It is an object of the present invention to provide an electrodeposition coating composition excellent in corrosion resistance and stability of the coating. The electrodeposition coating composition comprises, based on 100 parts by weight (solid basis) of a core resin and a hardener constituting an electrodeposition coating, 1 to 100 parts by weight of (a) a zinc powder dispersed by a phosphoric-acid-group-containing dispersing resin.
1. An electrodeposition coating composition comprising, based on 100 parts by weight (solid basis) of a core resin and a hardener constituting an electrodeposition coating, approximately 1 to 100 parts by weight of (a) a zinc powder dispersed by a phosphoric-acid-group-containing dispersing resin, wherein the electrodeposition coating is an onium-salt-containing cationic one and the hardener is a block polyisocyanate.
2. An electrodeposition coating composition of claim 1 , which comprises, based on 100 parts by weight (solid basis) of the core resin and the hardener constituting the electrodeposition coating, approximately 6 to 60 parts by weight of a zinc-powder-dispersed paste obtained by dispersing the zinc powder (a) by the phosphoric-acid-group-containing dispersing resin (b) while mixing (a) and (b) at a weight ratio falling within a range of from 0.5 to 2.
3. An electrodeposition coating composition of any one of claims 1 and 2 , wherein the phosphoric-acid-containing dispersing resin is obtained by the copolymerization of a phosphoric-acid-group-containing polymerizable monomer represented by the following formula:
[—OPO(OR)(OH)]
wherein, R represents a hydrogen atom and/or a C 4-10 hydrocarbon group, with another polymerizable monomer.
4. An electrodeposition coating of claim 1 or 2 , wherein the phosphoric-acid-group-containing dispersing resin is obtained by the reaction between an epoxy resin and monobutyl phosphate or an orthophosphate ester.
5. An electrodeposition coating composition of claim 1 or 2 , wherein the phosphoric-acid-group-containing dispersing resin is a copolymerization product of one or two monomers selected from acrylate ester monomers, hydroxyl-containing acrylate monomers and carboxyl-containing acrylate monomers and optionally, another polymerizable monomer.
6. Articles coated with an electrodeposition coating composition as claimed in claim 1 or 2 .
7. Articles coated with an electrodeposition coating composition as claimed in claim 3 .
8. Articles coated with an electrodeposition coating composition as claimed in claim 4 .
9. Articles coated with an electrodeposition coating composition as claimed in claim 5 .
