ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Improved powder coating compositions are disclosed which comprise (1) a copolymer of about 5 to about 20 weight percent of a glycidyl ester of a monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, e.g., glycidyl acrylate and glycidyl meth-acrylate, about 2 to about 10 weight percent of a hydroxy acrylate and about 70 to about 93 weight percent of other olefinically unsaturated monomers, preferably monofunctional olefinically unsaturated monomers which lose their sole functionality in polymerization, and (2) a dicarboxylic acid crosslinking agent. |
