Abstract

Modified cellulose esters are described that are prepared by grafting melamine moieties onto the backbone of cellulose esters. The resulting materials are useful in coating applications for wood, leather, and metal substrates and yield highly solvent-resistant coatings with enhanced properties when heated in the presence of an acid catalyst.
