Abstract

A process for the preparation of a matte coating on an article is described, which comprises applying to said article a powdered thermosetting composition comprising as binder a mixture of a linear carboxyl group-containing polyester and a glycidyl group-containing acrylic copolymer and curing the thus coated article at a temperature of from 160.degree. C. to 210.degree. C. for a period of up to about 30 minutes. The polyester has an acid number of 20 to 50 mg KOH/g, and is the esterification product of a hydroxyl group-containing polyester with an organic dicarboxylic acid. The acrylic copolymer is obtained from 5% to 30% by weight of glycidyl acrylate or glycidyl methacrylate and 70% to 95% by weight of methyl methacrylate, whereby up to 25% of the total weight of methyl methacrylate can be replaced by another vinyl monomer, said acrylic copolymer having a number-average molecular weight (Mn) of from about 4,000 to about 10,000.
