Abstract
Increasing the mar resistance of OEM clear coats has been one of the main R&D priorities of paint manufacturers over the last years. Reaching a good mar resistance level without compromising other coating properties such as acid resistance proves to be a major challenge. We investigated the use of branched glycidyl esters in melamine based OEM acrylic formulations. Our results show that systems based on this type of esters lead to good overall coating properties as well as a good balance between acid and scratch resistance.
