Latest Patents
One of his latest patents focuses on automotive refinish coatings with low volatile organic content. This innovative refinish composition includes an acetoacetate resin based on a monomeric polyol or a hydroxy-functional oligomer of such a polyol, along with a blocked polyamine, pigment, and alkyd polymer. The alkyd is designed to be non-reactive toward both the acetoacetate resin and the blocked polyamine. The compositions can be prepared from an intermix system that features multiple color bases and an unpigmented component. Each color base contains the alkyd resin and one or more pigments, while the unpigmented component includes at least one of the acetoacetate-functional resin or the blocked polyamine. Additionally, a drier for the alkyd resin may be included in one of the components or as a separate component.
Another significant patent by Goan is for a durable refinish coating. This invention discloses a carbamate-functional acrylic polymer that has an epsilon-caprolactone moiety beta to a carbamate group. The coating composition containing this acrylic polymer is particularly useful as a refinish coating and in refinish coating methods.
