Abstract: Coating compositions comprising an unsaturated oil modified resin and an unsaturated melamine condensate. The unsaturated melamine condensate is a condensate of a methylolmelamine, an acrylamide, an ethylenically unsaturated fatty acid amide and optionally a C.sub.1 to C.sub.10 alcohol, wherein the methylolmelamine has at least about 5 methylol groups per melamine ring, wherein substantially all the methylol groups are condensed with the acrylamide, the unsaturated fatty acid amide or the alcohol, wherein the number of the acrylamide moieties of the condensate is in the range of about 1 to about 4 per melamine ring and the number of unsaturated fatty acid amide moieties is in the range of about 0.5 to about 2 per melamine ring, wherein the ratio of the acrylamide moieties to unsaturated fatty acid amide moieties is in the range of about 1:1 to about 3:1.

The unsaturated condensates are used in high solids unsaturated coating systems containing unsaturated oil-modified resins.

Abstract: An unsaturated condensate of an alkoxymethylmelamine, an allylic alcohol and an acrylamide wherein the alkoxymethyl group contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, wherein the ratio of allylic moieties to acrylamide moieties is in the range of about 3:1 to about 1:3, wherein there is at least about 0.75 allylic moieties and no more than about 3 acrylamide moieties per melamine ring and wherein the total of allylic moieties and acrylamide moieties is in the range of about 2 to about 4 per melamine ring. The unsaturated condensates are used in high solids unsaturated coating systems containing unsaturated oil-modified resins.

Abstract: Air drying compositions comprising an unsaturated oil modified resin and an unsaturated condensate of an alkoxy-methylmelamine, an allylic alcohol and an acrylamide. The unsaturated melamine condensate contains allylic and acrylamide moieties in the ratio of about 3:1 to about 1:3, at least about 0.75 allylic moieties and no more than about 3 acrylamide moieties per melamine ring and a total of allylic and acrylamide moieties in the range of about 2 to about 4 per melamine ring.

Abstract: Dienes are separated from organic mixtures comprising diene and alkene having one double bond by contacting the mixture against one side of a membrane which is a halogenated polymer of ethylene and withdrawing at the other side a vaporous mixture having increased diene concentration. Exemplary of the organic mixtures is a mixture of butadiene and butene. Exemplary of the membranes are polyvinylchloride and tetrafluoroethylene/ethylene copolymer.
