Publication number: 20150087771Abstract: A process is disclosed for preparing a resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer by reacting a linear organosiloxane and an organosiloxane resin to form a resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer. The resulting resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer is then crosslinked to increase the average molecular weight of the resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer. The resin-linear organosiloxanes block copolymers prepared by the disclosed process may provide solid, optically clear compositions which may be considered as “reprocessable.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2013Publication date: March 26, 2015Applicant: Dow Corning CorporationInventors: John Bernard Horstman, Steven Swier

Publication number: 20150086792Abstract: The invention relates to an process for coating a glass substrate with an environmentally friendly aqueous, fluoropolymer coating composition. The process involves applying a polyurethane primer to the glass substrate, and partially, but not completely crosslinking this primer coating. An aqueous hydroxyl-functional fluoropolymer coating is then applied to the partially crosslinked primer coating, and the coating allowed to fully cure. The invention also relates to the intertwined multilayer primer/fluoropolymer coating on the glass substrate. The final coating has excellent wet adhesion to glass, good weathering, durability, chalking resistance, chemical resistance, and dirt pickup resistance.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 2, 2013Publication date: March 26, 2015Inventors: Min Zheng, Mei Wen, Scott R. Gaboury, Kurt A. Wood, Ronald H. Partridge

Patent number: 8986828Abstract: A multilayer film (10) is provided with a hard coat layer (12) and a film base (11) formed from a polymer compound. A heat shrinkage factor of the film base (11) (170° C., 10 minutes) is in a range from 0.05% to 3.0%. The hard coat layer (12) is formed by applying a coating liquid (33) containing a compound represented by a general formula (1), tetraalkoxysilane, acid water with pH in a range from 2 to 6, and a water-soluble hardening agent. An amount of the acid water is in a range from 60 to 2000 pts. wt. relative to a total amount 100 pts. wt. of the compound represented by the general formula (1) and tetraalkoxysilane. In the general formula (1), “R1” is an organic group having 1 to 15 carbons and containing no amino group. “R2” is a methyl group or ethyl group, “R3” is an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbons, and “n” is zero or 1. (1) R1R2nSi(OR3)3-n.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2010Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Naoya Imamura, Yasuo Enatsu, Mitsunori Hachisuka
