  • Publication number: 20240002694
    Abstract: A film forming formulation is provided that includes reaction products of phosphoric acid with a strained ring alkoxy silane. The phosphoric acid and the strained ring alkoxy silane are present in a molecular ratio of from 0.9-3.3:1. The film formulation also includes an aqueous solvent. A mold release coating composition is also provided that includes the film forming formulation, a reactive release agent, a base, and an aqueous solvent.

  • Publication number: 20200010696
    Abstract: A corrosion inhibiting coating is applied to a target substrate that includes dual- or poly-terminus siloxane having pendant and/or terminal amine or thiol moieties reacted with a strained ring alkoxysilane. The siloxanes adhered to susceptible surface with a tertiary amine or divalent mercaptan chain linker extending therebetween. The resulting coating functions as a corrosion inhibitor, and in some embodiments as a primer for subsequent painting. The resulting coating is generally invisible to the unaided human eye. A process of forming the corrosion inhibiting coating includes forming a water or solvent based emulsion solution by combining a solvent and/or water with suitable surfactants, an amine functional silicone fluid, and a strained ring containing alkoxysilane reactive with a nitrogen or sulfur containing curative chain linker.

  • Publication number: 20190002732
    Abstract: A mold release composition is provided contains a minimum of three reactive moieties per molecule to provide for both mold adhesion and crosslink density. The composition is soluble in a VOC-free organic solvent or water, alone or with resort to an emulsifier. The composition can be used as a semi-permanent mold release in some embodiments.

  • Publication number: 20110136985
    Abstract: A process for molding an article is provided that includes applying a permanent release coating to a surface of a mold cavity. The permanent release coating is over layered with a top coat that upon filling the mold cavity with a polymer or a polymer precursor under conditions to form the article, the top coat is transferred to the resultant article to form a top coat skin without appreciably removing the permanent release coating from the surface of the mold cavity. Articles having curved surfaces and high aspect ratios are particularly well suited for forming a top coat skin thereon through the process. An unsaturated top coat material is noted to react with the polymer or polymer precursor during molding to form a top coat skin that is covalently bonded to the remainder of the article. The process detailed herein is particularly well suited for forming covalently bonded coatings on elastomeric articles.
