Patent number: 6663930Abstract: Gel formation is prevented in the reaction between a sulfonyl-chloride-containing resin and a polyamine by first forming an adduct between the resin with an aminophenol. The prevention of gel formation enables sulfonyl-chloride containing resin to be used in admixture with acrylates and epoxy resin to form a polyamine-curable adhesive composition having excellent adhesive properties and chemical resistance.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 1999Date of Patent: December 16, 2003Assignee: Forty Ten L.L.C.Inventor: Shah A. Haque

Patent number: 6660386Abstract: A primer for flame sprayed polyolefin comprises an epoxy resin, preferably of low molecular weight and/or low viscosity; and an amine hardener, part of which becomes highly reactive on exposure to open flame, providing near instant cure of the composition under flame spray conditions. The invention is unique that it provides strong adhesion to steel, even where the surface preparation is less than ideal, as well as to concrete and other substrates. The primer eliminates the need to preheat the substrate. The primer has strong adhesion to the topcoat polyolefinic material, especially to a functionalized topcoat. The composition withstands open flame and does not char under polyolefin flame spray conditions, nor does it run or sag, and it is not prone to failure as it cools after the application of the polyolefin.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2001Date of Patent: December 9, 2003Assignee: Polymer Ventures, L.L.C.Inventor: Shah A. Haque

Patent number: 6545101Abstract: Polyisobutylene (PIB) functionalized with terminal reactive unsaturation is disclosed. Carbocationically polymerized monohalogen-terminated PIB is dehydrohalogenated in a hydrocarbon solvent using an alkoxide of the formula RO-M wherein R is alkyl of at least 5 carbon atoms and M is alkali metal. The PIB obtained has terminal unsaturation which is 100% in the reactive ‘exo’ form which can be converted to succinic anhydride groups (PIB-SA) by the ene reaction with maleic anhydride. The PIB-SA is reactive with amine functional dendrimers to obtain a star-branched polymer having a dendrimer core and PIB branches joined by succinimide linkages. Blends of the star-branched polymer with polypropylene have improved energy absorption properties and controllable moisture/oxygen permeabilities useful in films.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2001Date of Patent: April 8, 2003Assignee: ExxonMobil Chemical Patents Inc.Inventors: Pawan Kumar Agarwal, Hsien-Chang Wang, Yu Feng Wang, Jean M. J. Frechet, Shah A. Haque
