Multi-layer coatings comprising polymerization reaction products of 1,1-di-activated vinyl compounds are described. Also provided are processes for coating substrates with curable compositions comprising 1,1-di-activated vinyl compounds. Also provided are articles coated with this composition.

Multi-layer curable compositions containing 1,1-di-activated vinyl compound products and related processes

The present invention is directed to film-forming compositions comprising: a) a non-chlorinated, linear polyolefin polymer comprising 0.5 to 10 percent by weight residues of an ethylenically unsaturated anhydride or acid; b) an aminoplast; and c) a component comprising: i) at least one non-chlorinated hydrocarbon having at least 18 carbon atoms and optionally aromatic groups and/or oxygen heteroatoms; and/or ii) an alkyd resin. The present invention is also drawn to methods of improving fuel resistance of a coated article, comprising: (1) applying the film-forming composition to a substrate to form a coated substrate; (2) optionally subjecting the coated substrate to a temperature for a time sufficient to cure the film-forming composition; (3) applying at least one curable film-forming composition to the coated substrate to form a multi-layer coated substrate; and (4) subjecting the multi-layer coated substrate to a temperature and for a time sufficient to cure all of the film-forming compositions.

Polyurethane coating compositions containing 1,1-di-activated vinyl compounds and related coatings and processes

The present invention is directed to curable film-forming compositions comprising a film-forming resin and a crosslinking agent. The film-forming resin contains a polymer having functional aromatic groups derived from functional aromatic acids. The present invention further provides multi-component composite coating compositions comprising a first film-forming composition applied to a substrate to form a primer or base coat, and a second film-forming composition applied on top of the primer or base coat to form a top coat, the top coat comprising the composition described above. Coating compositions prepared from the curable compositions of the present invention demonstrate superior gloss and acid etch resistance properties, making them ideally suited for automotive applications.

Curable film-forming compositions containing ortho-hydroxyl aromatic functional acrylic polymers

The present invention provides an improved multi-layer composite of two or more polymeric layers at least one of which is formed from a thermosetting composition. The composite includes at least a first polymeric layer formed on a substrate and a second polymeric layer over the first polymeric layer, wherein in the absence of a boron-containing compound, the first and second polymeric layers have poor interlayer adhesion. The improvement resides in the inclusion of at least one boron-containing compound in one or both of the first and second polymeric layers in an amount sufficient to improve the interlayer adhesion between the first and second polymeric layers. Also provided is an improved curable coating composition used to form a multi-layer composite coating of two or more cured coating layers, at least one of which is formed from the thermosetting composition. Related methods and coated substrates are also provided.
