Abstract
Pigmented coating solutions are disclosed which deposit coatings possessing improved resistance to ultraviolet radiation-induced auto-oxidation. These solutions contain organic solvent, including aromatic hydrocarbon solvent, having dissolved therein an aromatic hydrocarbon-soluble, normally liquid, polysulfide or polydisulfide derivative having terminal -SH groups which have been reacted with a monofunctional reactant providing a C.sub.1 -C.sub.22 alkyl terminal group to provide an essentially nonreactive derivative. The solvent also has dissolved therein a polar polymeric binder (preferably thermosetting) which degrades by a photo-oxidative mechanism and which has only limited compatibility with the derivative. The pigment protects the bulk of a deposited coating, and the limited compatibility causes a heated film of the coating solution to stratify as the solvent evaporates to concentrate the derivative at the surface of the cured coating to protect the same.
