Epoxy resin compositions containing carboxyl-containing polymers as a low gloss additive are rendered more storage stable by the addition of a stabilizing amount of at least one stabilizer compound which is (a) at least one Group IA, IIA, IIB, IIIA, VIB or VIII of the periodic table of the elements metal salt of an organic carboxylic acid; (b) at least one of zinc carbonate, zinc oxide, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate; or (c) any combination of (a) and (b). These compositions are particularly useful in powder coating applications. |
