Description
- This invention relates to a carboxylic acid anhydride end-capped polyester and its use in thermosetting powder coating applications. The invention also relates to the use of said compositions for the preparation of powdered paints and varnishes which provides low gloss coatings, providing an outstanding flow, excellent mechanical properties, good solvent resistance and weathering.
