Abstract

An aqueous protective coating composition particularly useful for can coatings based on a polymeric binder comprises water dispersed diepoxide crosslinked microgel particles. The microgel polymer is produced by disposing in water a carboxyl functional, addition polymer modified, maleated glyceride oil copolymer and crosslinking aqueous disposed carboxyl copolymer with a low molecular weight diepoxide to form stable aqueous disposed microgel particles. The maleated glyceride oil can be modified by in-situ polymerizing ethylenic monomers with the maleated glyceride oil in the absence of water or in water to form either a water dispersed copolymer or an aqueous emulsion copolymer. The water disposed copolymer is subsequently heat reacted with diepoxide mixed with the copolymer to form aqueous dispersed microgel polymer particles.
