Abstract

A heat-curable coating composition contains a polymer having pendant amine groups and a bis-maleimide cross-linking agent in aqueous dispersion. The amine groups of the polymer are protonated to render the polymer water dispersible. The amine groups are adapted to become de-protonated for cross-linking with the bis-maleimide under heating to form a fully cured film. In a preferred embodiment, the coating composition serves as a cathodic electrocoating composition.
