A polymer having N-functional imide groups is prepared from reactants that include: (a) an ethylenically unsaturated anhydride or diacid monomer; (b) at least one co-monomer that is different from (a) having an ethylenically unsaturated group that is reactive with (a); and at least one compound reactive with the anhydride or diacid functional groups of (a) that is represented by Chemical Formula I: HN&#x2014;R. With respect to Chemical Formula I, Ris selected from NHor OH. Pigment dispersions and coating compositions are also prepared with the polymers having N-functional imide groups.

Polymers with functional imide groups and pigment dispersions and coatings formed therefrom

Disclosed are infrared reflective coating systems. The coating compositions include an infrared transparent pigment and an infrared reflective pigment.
