Abstract
Abstract A graft copolymer having a polymeric backbone with pendant hydroxyl groups; wherein the hydrogen atom of at least the one the hydroxyl groups is replaced by the formula ##STR1## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms; R 2 is a polymer segment of a vinyl addition polymer, such as butyl acrylate/hydroxyethyl acrylate; coating compositions of this copolymer can be cross-linked with conventional cross-linking agents such as an alkylated melamine formaldehyde resin or an organic polyisocyanate and coating compositions useful for flexible elastomeric substrates can be prepared from this copolymer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
102 words
A graft copolymer consisting essentially of about 25-95% by weight of a styrene/allyl alcohol polymer backbone and about 5-75% by weight of side chains; wherein the styrene/allyl alcohol polymer backbone contains pendent hydroxyl groups before the attachment of side chains by replacement of a hydrogen of at least one of the hydroxyl groups by the formula ##STR5## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms, R 2 , which forms a side chain, is a polymer segment of an acrylate, methacrylate, acrylic acid or methacrylic acid polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
102 words
A graft copolymer consisting essentially of about 25-95% by weight of a styrene/allyl alcohol polymer backbone and about 5-75% by weight of side chains; wherein the styrene/allyl alcohol polymer backbone contains pendent hydroxyl groups before the attachment of side chains by replacement of a hydrogen of at least one of the hydroxyl groups by the formula ##STR5## where R is an aliphatic group, a cycloaliphatic group or an aromatic group; R 1 is an alkylene group having 2-6 carbon atoms, R 2 , which forms a side chain, is a polymer segment of an acrylate, methacrylate, acrylic acid or methacrylic acid polymer.
