The invention relates to a coating composition comprising an acetal-functional binder and a thiol-functional cross-linker, wherein the acetal-functional binder is represented by the following formula wherein P is a binder backbone, K is a divalent and/or trivalent organic moiety having 1 to 30 carbon atoms and having one or two links to the binder backbone, A is selected from oxygen, sulphur, and NR, wherein Ris hydrogen or an alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, m is an integer from 1 to 50, n is an integer from 1 to 10, and R and R' may be the same or different and represent alkyl groups with 1 to 4 carbon atoms. In a further aspect, the invention relates to acetal-functional binders, acetal-functional monomers, a process for the preparation of said monomers, coating compositions comprising said acetal-functional binders, and to a process for the preparation of a coating composition comprising an acetal-functional polyurethane dispersion and a thiol-functional cross-linker.

Coating composition comprising an acetal-functional binder

The invention pertains to a coating composition comprising a compound comprising at least one spiro-ortho silicate group and a hydroxyl-reactive cross-linker, to a process for curing the composition, and to the use of the composition. The coating composition of the current invention can be formulated to a coating composition having a low content of volatile organic solvents, is curable at a temperature as low as 5&#xb0; C., and the cured coating composition of the current invention is essentially free of unreacted low-molecular weight blocking agents. Further, the pot life: drying time ratio of coating compositions according to the invention is particularly favorable.

Coating composition comprising a compound comprising a spiro-ortho silicate group

Photoactivatable coating composition comprising at least one photoinitiator and a base-catalysed polymerisable or curable organic material comprising at least one polyisocyanate and at least one compound containing isocyanate reactive groups, wherein the isocyanate reactive groups comprise at least one thiol group and the photoinitiator is a photolatent base. Preference is given to a coating composition wherein the photolatent base is selected from the group of N-substituted 4-(ortho-nitrophenyl)dihydropyridine, a quaternary organo-boron photoinitiator, and an &#x3b1;-amino acetophenone. The composition additionally may comprise an organic acid, a metal complex and/or a metal salt as a cocatalyst and/or a sensitiser selected from the group of thioxanthones, oxazines, rhodamines, and preferably from the group of benzophenone and derivatives thereof.

Aqueous cross-linkable binder composition and its use in the production of lacquer coatings

The invention pertains to a coating composition comprising a first compound comprising at least one bicyclo- or spiro-orthoester group and a second compound comprising at least two hydroxyl-reactive groups. The invention also comprises a process for curing the present coating composition. More particularly, the latent hydroxyl groups of the bicyclo- or spiro-orthoester groups have to be deblocked and reacted with the hydroxyl-reactive groups of the second compound if the present coating composition is to be cured. Further, a process for making bicyclo-orthoester compounds from the corresponding oxetane compound is described, as are polymers comprising at least one bicyclo- or spiro-orthoester group.
