Abstract
This invention provides weatherable thermosetting powder coatings based on an all-aliphatic polyester comprised of residues of 1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, 1,3-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, or 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and 2,6-decahydronaphthalene dimethanol. The polyester may be predominantly hydroxyl or carboxyl functional. Coating compositions prepared therefrom provide coatings which exhibit superior weatherability.
