Claims
- 1. In a method of coating a conductive substrate serving as a cathode in an electrical circuit comprising said cathode and an anode immersed in an aqueous electrodepositable coating composition, said method comprising passing electric current between said cathode and said anode to cause a coating to deposit on said cathode, said coating composition comprising a resin which contains cationic base groups and which is formed from reacting a polyepoxide resin with a cationic base group former, the improvement comprising a polyepoxide resin which is formed from reacting a polyepoxide with a polyether polyol; said polyether polyol formed from reacting:
- (A) a cyclic polyol with
- (B) ethylene oxide or a mixture of ethylene oxide and an alkylene oxide having 3 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkylene chain; the equivalent ratio of (B) to (A) being within the range of 3 to 20:1.
- 2. The method of claim 1 in which the cationic resin contains active hydrogens and is present with a curing agent which is stable in the presence of active hydrogens but which is reactive with the active hydrogens at elevated temperatures to form a cured product.
- 3. The method of claim 2 in which the curing agent is a capped organic polyisocyanate.
- 4. The method of claim 3 in which the organic polyisocyanate is fully capped.
- 5. The method of claim 2 in which the curing agent is an aminoplast.
- 6. The method of claim 1 in which the aqueous dispersion contains 1 to 50 percent by weight of cationic resin.
- 7. An article coated by the method of claim 1.
