Silyl esters, their use in binder systems and paint compositions and a process of production thereof
Publication number: 20100249298Abstract: The use of an organosilyl ester as an alkaline hydrolysis or erodability booster for the binder system of a paint formulation is described. The booster is used in paint formulations which require hydrolysis of one or more of the components of o the paint in use. The organosilylesters of the invention may also independently be film forming. The organosilyl ester may be the ester of a carboxylic, sulphonic or phosphoric acid. The binder systems of the invention can be used in paint compositions, such as self-polishing antifouling paints.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2010Publication date: September 30, 2010Inventors: Michel Gillard, Marcel Vos -
Patent number: 7767010Abstract: The present invention provides compositions for application to a material, such as building materials, prior to an exposure of the material to fire, or prior to, during or after exposure of the material to conditions favorable to the growth of microbes. When compositions within the present invention are properly applied to a material, they have the effect of reducing the amount of burning that occurs to the material, and/or reducing the amount or density of smoke and associated toxic gases produced by the material, when the material is exposed to fire, and inhibiting the growth of microbes on the material when the material is exposed to conditions favorable to the growth of microbes. The invention also provides methods for reducing the burning of a material that is exposed to fire, and for inhibiting the growth of microbes on a material exposed to conditions favorable to the growth of microbes.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2004Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: SMT, Inc.Inventors: Jon Lee Curzon, Thomas William Smoot

Publication number: 20100018436Abstract: Disclosed is a process for making an animal blood adhesive and the resulting adhesive composition. The adhesive is made by adding to fresh, whole animal blood, without dewatering the blood, an anticoagulant and a preservative. Lime is then added to the anticoagulated, preserved blood, and the pH is adjusted to between about 9 and about 11. A curing agent (such as potassium silicate, sodium silicate and aluminum dihydrogen phosphate) and ammonia are then added to the mixture to yield the animal blood adhesive. The adhesive can be made from any animal blood, such as bovine, porcine, or avian blood. The resulting adhesive is useful for adhering wood-based products, such as plywood and particle board.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2009Publication date: January 28, 2010Inventors: Sundaram Gunasekaran, Hailin Lin
