The present disclosure relates generally to coating medical devices. In particular, the present disclosure provides materials and methods for coating a portion of a balloon catheter with a pharmaceutical agent using electrodeposition techniques. Although angioplasty and stenting can be effective methods for treating vascular occlusions, restenosis remains a pervasiveness problem. Therefore, coating portions of a balloon catheter with a pharmaceutical agent that inhibits restenosis can reduce the likelihood of restenosis.

Disclosed are aqueous resinous dispersions that are electrodepositable and exhibit good anti-settling properties, as well as to their use to produce smooth, low gloss coatings. The aqueous resinous dispersions include an active hydrogen-containing, cationic salt group-containing polymer; a curing agent; and oxidized polyolefin particles.

An electrocoating composition and a coating formed from the composition are described herein. The electrocoating composition includes at least an epoxy resin component, an isocyanate-functional component and a silica-based additive. The coating shows about 40 to 70% reduction in edge corrosion relative to a conventional coating.
