In a curable coil coating composition comprising a mixture of: (a) a curable polyester that is a liquid at room temperature, (b) a cross-linking agent; and (c) a solvent; the improvement comprising preparing the polyester from a composition comprising a mixture of 1,3- and 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol wherein the molar ratio of the 1,3 isomer to the 1,4 isomer is from about 60:40 to about 5:95. Cured coil coatings prepared from these compositions exhibit an excellent combination of flexibility and hardness.

Polyester coil coating formulation

The invention is a photoswitchable benzocyclobutene-based polymer that while remaining aqueous developable, avoids the problem of significant moisture uptake. The oligomer or polymer comprises a polymeric backbone, benzocyclobutene reactive groups, and photoswitchable pendant groups. The pendant groups are bonded to the polymeric backbone and are characterized by the presence of a moiety that converts to carboxylic acid upon exposure to activating wavelengths of radiation a carboxylic acid. When the oligomer or polymer is subsequently heated to cause cure of the oligomer or polymer, carbon dioxide is emitted and the group forms a substantially non-polar moiety. The invention is also a method of making such a polymer and a method of forming a patterned film using such a polymer.
