  • Alkyd resin emulsion
    Patent number: 6780910
    Abstract: An aqueous emulsion of an alkyd resin which contains as an emulsifier at least one branched primary alcohol alkoxylate of the formula (I): [CH3.(CH2)n][CH3.(CH2)m].CH.[(CH2)p.O.(AO)q.H], where n and m are each independently from 1 to 13; and p is 1 or 2; such that n+m+p is from 5 to 15; AO is an alkylene oxide residue having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and q is from 5 to 50. The alkyd emulsion is particularly suitable for use as a waterborne paint or surface coating composition.

  • Emulsions
    Patent number: 6613817
    Abstract: An aqueous emulsion of a resin which includes as an emulsifier at least one compound of the formula (I): R1—CO—NR2R3 wherein R1 is a polyunsaturated hydrocarbyl group; R2 is a polyhydroxy hydrocarbyl radical; and R3 is hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl, particularly alkyl, group, a hydroxy or hydrocarbyloxy substituted hydrocarbyl, particularly hydroxy or alkoxy substituted alkyl, or is a group defined for R2. The resin is preferably an alkyd resin, and the emulsions are particularly useful for incorporating into paints.

  • Dispersion of pigments
    Patent number: 6582505
    Abstract: Aqueous pigment dispersions include branched alcohol alkoxylates of formula (I) as set forth in the specification and claims. The total dispersant used may include at least 40% by weight of the branched alcohol alkoxylate. The pigment dispersion is effective for a wide variety of pigments, including, inorganic pigments, organic pigments and carbon black. The pigment dispersions are useful, for example, in paints and other surface coatings.
