Carbamate compounds and coating compositions comprising same.

The present invention relates to a coating composition containing hydroxyalkyl carbamate groups comprising from about 5 to 50 parts of an interlocking agent from 0 to 94 parts of a polymer having reactive sites and which at elevated temperatures react with the interleaver and 0 to 10 parts of an acid catalyst, characterized in that it also includes 1 to 50 parts of hydroxyalkyl carbamate of the formula: R-NCH ("O) -O-CH ('R1 (CH (' R3N ('R2CHOH where R is an organic portion of 1 to 20 carbon atoms, which may contain one or more constituents selected from the class that it consists of heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, and each of R1, R2 and R3 independently HO CH ·: or a condensation product of carbamate; carbamate, interleaver, and polymer are relatively stable to each other in the composition, while at room temperature and reactive at elevated temperature, ranges are set in parts by weight based on the total weight of the solid resin of the resin components .
