The invention provides an aqueous resin dispersion which can form a coating film excellent in adhesion to a polypropylene base material, and water resistance, and has excellent particle stability. Specifically, it provides an aqueous resin dispersion in which an olefin polymer (A), and a polymer (C) containing a constituent unit derived from a radically polymerizable monomer (B) represented by the following general formula (1) are dispersed in an aqueous medium. (In the general formula (1), R is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and X is a straight chain or branched alkylene group having 3 to 5 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 1 to 20.)

To solve the problems described herein, this invention provides a resin emulsion for primers capable of suitably controlling sagging when a base coating is applied and capable of obtaining a smooth appearance in aqueous paint systems for plastics. The invention provides an aqueous dispersion comprising an acid-modified polyolefin resin (A), a nitrogen-containing non-ionic emulsifier (B), and water, wherein the acid-modified polyolefin resin (A) is a propylene-?-olefin copolymer having a butene content of 2 to 35 mass % in a polyolefin component, and wherein a coating film after baking at 80? C. has a pure water contact angle of 40? to 90?.

Disclosed is a coating material comprising 100 parts by mass of an acid-modified polypropylene (A) and at least 450 parts by mass of organic solvents (B), wherein the acid-modified polypropylene has a melting point of 90? C. or lower and the organic solvents (B) comprises 80-99 mass % aromatic hydrocarbon solvent (B1) and 20-1 mass % one or more solvents (B2) selected from the group consisting of ester-based solvents, ketone-based solvents, and alcohol-based solvents, the sum of the proportion of the ingredient (B1) and the proportion of the ingredient (B2) being 100 mass %. The coating material may further contain a compound (C) having, in the molecule, two or more functional groups capable of forming a chemical bond with a carboxyl group, in an amount of 0.1-20 parts by mass. The compound (C) having, in the molecule, two or more functional groups capable of forming a chemical bond with a carboxyl group may be one having no hydrolyzable group. Also disclosed are: a coating film formed from the coating material; a layered product comprising the coating film and a substrate film; and a flexible flat cable including the layered product.

Beverage containers and methods of coating are provided. The beverage containers include a metal substrate that is at least partially coated with a coating prepared from a composition that includes a binder system, a cross linker, and a catalyst.
