  • Patent number: 6013752
    Abstract: Halogenated resin compositions are prepared without using halogen acids by combining at least one silicone intermediate, with an optional silane, an organic halogen-containing ingredient having functional groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amine, and carboxyl groups, and a resin selected from the group consisting of hydroxy- and epoxy-functional resins. One or more amine curing agent and/or catalyst selected from the group consisting of organometallic compounds, acids, bases, and mixtures thereof can optionally be added to facilitate ambient temperature curing of the resulting composition. The combined ingredients undergo hydrolysis reactions to form a halogenated organooxysilane that condenses to form a cross-linked halogenated polysiloxane composition. The resin also reacts with the condensing halogenated organooxysilane to introduce itself into the cross-linked halogenated polysiloxane and, thereby form the halogenated polysiloxane resin composition.

  • Patent number: 5804616
    Abstract: Epoxy-polysiloxane polymer compositions of this invention are prepared by combining a resin component with a hardener component. The resin component comprises a non-aromatic epoxy resin ingredient and a polysiloxane ingredient. The hardener component comprises an amine and optionally an organotin catalyst. The composition can also include aggregates, pigments, and other additives depending on the particular end use. The composition is prepared using a sufficient amount of water to promote hydrolysis of the polysiloxane and the polycondensation of the silanols produced by such hydrolysis. In its cured form, the epoxy-polysiloxane composition exists as a uniformly dispersed arrangement of linear epoxy chain fragments that are cross-linked with a continuous polysiloxane polymer chain, thereby forming a non-interpenetrating polymer network chemical structure that has substantial advantages over conventional epoxy systems.

  • Patent number: 5760155
    Abstract: A polysiloxane polyurethane composition is prepared by combining in the presence of water and in a predetermined proportion an organic di- or polyisocyanate, a polyol, an hydroxyl-containing silicon material having the hydroxyl groups attached directly to a silicon atom, an organotin catalyst, an amine catalyst, a methoxy-functional silicone intermediate, and a carbinol. If desired, various different fillers, pigments, solvents, and additives for enhancing pigment wetting and flow control and the like can also be used to prepare the coating. The chemical ingredients are combined together to undergo chemical reaction to form silanol-functionalized urethane prepolymers that cure at ambient temperatures in the presence of moisture to form a polysiloxane polyurethane composition having enhanced properties of chemical and weather resistance, high tensile and tear strength, and high elongation.

  • Patent number: 5618860
    Abstract: A sprayable, trowelable epoxy polysiloxane based coating and flooring composition exhibiting excellent weatherability in sunlight and superior chemical, corrosion and impact resistance after curing is made up of: (a) a resin component which includes a non-aromatic epoxy resin having at least two 1,2-epoxy groups per molecule; a polysiloxane and an organooxysilane; (b) an difunctional aminosilane hardener component; (c) an organotin catalyst; and (d) an aggregate or pigment component. Organic solvents and flow modifying agents may be added to facilitate spray application. The resin component, hardener component, aggregate component and desired catalysts are combined in the presence of a sufficient amount of water to promote the hydrolysis of polysiloxane and/or organooxysilane and the polycondensation of the silanols produced by such hydrolysis. The aminosilane and epoxide resin react to form a cured linear epoxy polymer.
