Abstract
A water-soluble or water-dispersible fluorine-containing dendritic polymer surfactant having at least one terminal fluorocarbon moiety and at least one terminal anionic moiety, and which is suitable for use in preparing protective coating compositions is disclosed. The water-soluble or water-dispersible fluorine-containing dendritic polymer surfactants are represented by the general formula: ##STR1## where D represents a dendritic polymer, R.sub.F represents a fluorocarbon containing moiety, A.sup.- represents an anionic containing moiety, C.sup.+ represents a cation, T represents a terminal group of the dendritic polymer which has not been functionalized with a fluorocarbon or anionic moiety, n and m are at least each at least one, and the sum of n+m+q is the total number of terminal groups on the dendritic polymer. Also disclosed is a coating composition capable of forming a highly crosslinked, non-stick, protective coating. The coating composition includes a water-soluble or water-dispersible fluorine-containing dendritic polymer surfactant having at least one terminal fluorocarbon moiety and at least one terminal anionic moiety, an oxazoline crosslinking agent, and a water-based solvent.
