For the purpose of this inventlon, the thermally-actlvated catalyqt is an alkali metal organo~ulfonate. The alkali Metal may be sodium (preferred), potassium or lithium, while the organo group may contain 1 to 22, preferably 8 to 18 carbon atoms. The organo group may be straight or branched-chain aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic ln nature; preferably the organo group is slkyl or W O 92/00359 PCTtUS91/03225 ~ 208~92 alkaryl gro~lr contnillln~ 8 to 18 carbon atoms.

For printing lnk purroses, the composieion desirably includes a 2Q diluent to control viscoslty and to assist in transferability of the ink to the substrate. rreferably, the diluent is one which is non-volatile At the desired curing temperature and is reactive with the components of the coating composition. Volatile, non-reactive diluents are undesirable from an environmental and safety point of view And nl~qo since t:hey leave buhbles or cracks in the coating as they evaporate or they may be trapped between the outer surface of the ink coating and the overprint varnish W)liC)l is typically added after the suhstrate has been imprinted. The diluent i9 typlCAlly used in an amount of 2 to 25 wt. ~, preferably 2 to 20 wt. ~, based 3Q on the welght of ehe coating composition. Examples of suitable reactive diluents include ethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, butylene glycol, tridecyl alcohol, octyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, octadecyl alcohol, octylene glycol, hexyl carbitol, and the ll~e.

The coating compositions are applied to the de~ired substrate by ~praying, alr knlfe, curtain coating, roller coating, dipplng, W O 92/00359 PCr/US9I/0322~
