Abstract: Stable aqueous acrylic resin dispersions are made from a dispersion in water of the reaction product of a carboxylic acid containing acrylic resin and a diglycidyl ether of a polyoxyalkylene glycol.
Abstract: Dual action sunscreen compositions capable of both moisturizing the skin and protecting it from sunburn are made from a cationic guar, a cationic acrylic polymer and an ultraviolet absorbing sunscreening agent.
Abstract: Curable compositions are made from blends of polycyanate ester of polyhydric phenols and amorphous, aromatic thermoplastic resins which are initially soluble in the polycyanate ester but which phase separate during curing of the polycyanate ester.
Abstract: Quaternary ammonium containing monomers, represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is H or methyl, R.sub.2 is an alkyl group containing 6 to 22 carbon atoms, D is an alkylene group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or a hydroxylalkylene group containing 2 to 4 carbon atoms and X is an anion, are polymerized to form polymers useful in hair care preparations.
Abstract: Modified acrylic copolymer compositions are made by polymerizing acrylic monomers in admixture with a citric ester. Such compositions are useful as pigment grinding vehicles and as vehicles for thermosetting coatings.

Abstract: Stable emulsion are made from hydrocarbon liquids, water and a water-soluble polysaccharide, plus a fatty acid alkanol amide surfactant. These emulsions are readily dispersed in water to form viscous solutions useful in the clarification of waste waters, in paper making operations and in oil service operations.
Abstract: Heat curable coating compositions particularly suitable as coatings for metal can ends are made from aqueous dispersions of epoxy resins, acrylic resins which are copolymers of polymerizable acids and other monomers, phenoxy resins, alkylated phenol novolac resins and resol resins.
Abstract: In an aqueous process for derivatizing polygalactomannan gums, the derivatized product prior to washing is reacted with a water soluble aluminum salt. The resulting products hydrate readily under alkaline pH conditions.
Abstract: The viscosity of aqueous fluids thickened with a tertiary amino polygalactomannan is reduced by the addition of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt of hypochlorous acid, or a chlorinated isocyanurate.

Abstract: Stable prepolymer solutions are made from partially cyclotrimerized 4,4'-thiodi(phenylcyanate) dissolved in cyclopentanone. The prepolymer solutions are used to make flame retardant and thermally stable laminates.
Abstract: Flame retardant thermoset compositions having excellent water absorption resistance, caustic resistance, and low dielectric constants are made from blends of the dicyanate ester of 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) bisphenol and a different polycyanate ester of a polyhydric phenol.
Abstract: A process for the reduction of free epichlorohydrin in epoxy compounds which involves the treatment of an epoxy compound with an alkali metal sulfite, preferably sodium sulfite.
