Aliphatic polyester coating compositions containing tetramethyl cyclobutanediol

Abstract:

Disclosed are aliphatic polyester resins containing specific molar quantities of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanediol, and solvent borne, thermosetting monocoating compositions prepared therefrom. The aliphatic polyesters exhibit good hardness and flexibility when formulated into thermosetting coatings compositions.
