Abstract
A curing agent for a water borne epoxy resin composition wherein the curing agent is the reaction product of a chemical excess of a polyfunctional epoxide compound and a quaternary ammonium salt in which substantially all of the excess epoxide groups in the reaction product are subsequently consumed in a reaction with a polyamine. A process for preparing the curing agent and a hardenable film forming coating composition containing as essential components, the curing agent, at least one water dispersible epoxy resin and water is also disclosed.
