Abstract: Provided is a non-aqueous, emulsifiable composition which, in its overall concept, comprises a substantially homogenous mixture of an unblocked polyisocyanate crosslinking agent and a surface active isocyanate reactive material. Also provided is a substantially homogeneous, curable, oil-in-water emulsion produced by, as well as a method of producing such by, the steps of admixing the components of the non-aqueous emulsifiable composition as described above and, thereafter, contacting such emulsifiable composition and an aqueous medium in proportions and under conditions so as to result in a substantially homogeneous, oil-in-water emulsion. Such curable emulsions find particular use in a variety of coatings applications.

Abstract: A hydroxy group-containing aryl triazine ultraviolet absorber represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein the R moiety of the OR group is a linear or branched aliphatic alkyl group containing 3 carbon atoms substituted by one or more alkoxy groups of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, said moiety being further substituted by one or more hydroxy groups, andwherein R.sup.19, R.sup.20, R.sup.21, R.sup.22, R.sup.23, R.sup.24 and R.sup.25 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, sulfonic, halo, carboxy, haloalkyl and acrylamino.
