abstract |
There is herein provided a urethane-containing material having one or more moieties of the structure:n n wherein R is hydrogen, an alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group; wherein X is hydrogen, an alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group, or wherein X is a moiety of the structure:n of which R 1 and R 2 are, each independently, hydrogen, an alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group, or members of a cyclic or . heterocyclic group. The urethane-containing material is particularly useful as a low temperature curing agent for active hydrogen-containing materials. Curable compositions containing the urethane curing agent and the active hydrogen-containing materials are useful as electrocoating compositions. |
