Abstract
A monomeric alkoxymethylated aminoplast crosslinking agent derived from a m-TMI/melamine 1:1 adduct and a process for its preparation is provided. The process comprises contacting melamine with M-TMI, contacting the adduct formed with formaldehyde, and contacting the hydroxymethylated adduct with an alcohol such as butanol. A curable composition comprising the monomeric aminoplast crosslinker and a polyfunctional active hydrogen-containing material is also provided. An improved method of coating using the curable composition to produce cured films or objects is also provided.
