Patent number: 6849678Abstract: The current process for producing powder coatings can be replaced with a process utilizing supercritical fluids including polymer polymerization, compatibilized blending of powder coating ingredients, and particle size control and classification of the powder coating. Traditionally, powder coating resins are polymerized in solvent based system. Next, the resin is blended with additives in a twin screw extruder at high temperatures. The material is then ground and separated by particle size to form the finished powder coating. This invention replaces the previous process by performing all operations in a supercritical fluid, preferably, carbon dioxide. Polymerization is conducted at any pressure above critical pressure and temperature above critical temperature up to 190°C. Solubility of the polymer in the supercritical fluid allows for control and narrow distribution of the molecular weight and a polydispersity of about 2 or less.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2002Date of Patent: February 1, 2005Assignee: The University of AkronInventors: Sunggyu Lee, H.

Publication number: 20040224153Abstract: A composition or particle mixture (20) for equalizing radial and lateral forces at the tire/road footprint of a pneumatic tire (11) due to tire/wheel assembly imbalance, non-uniformity of the tire, temporary disturbances in the road surface, or other vibrational effects of the unsprung mass of a vehicle whereby the particle mixture (20) is inserted into the interior of the tire (11). The composition is a dry solid particle mixture (20) wherein the particles are freely flowable and non-tacky at elevated tire temperatures, the particle mixture (20) is essentially devoid of liquid material, and the particle mixture (20) comprises two or more sets of particles wherein each set consists essentially of particles of a predetermined size or size range. The particle mixture (20) exhibits a multimodal particle size distribution.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2002Publication date: November 11, 2004Inventor: Robert D. Fogal, Sr.

Patent number: 6812267Abstract: A process for making pigmented PVDF-based powder coatings by coagulation and powder based coatings made by the process. The process involves blending a PVDF latex and a water reducible acrylic polymer and pigment dispersion, adding coagulant to precipitate solid PVDF and pigment associated by ionic interaction with acrylic polymer binder, separating solids and drying the precipitate. Also, methods for coating substrates with the powder coating and coated substrates.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2003Date of Patent: November 2, 2004Assignee: Solvay Solexis, Inc.Inventors: Shiow-Ching Lin, Michelle Kelly, Bradley Kent

Patent number: 6797387Abstract: A crosslinking agent is provided, prepared by reacting (A) an aminoplast resin; (B) a reactive urethane group-containing adduct of a polyfunctional polymer and monoisocyanate, and (C) at least one other compound having active hydrogen groups reactive with aminoplast resin (A). Compound (C) is selected from: (i) compounds having the structure (I): wherein X is aromatic; R1, R2, and R3 each independently represents H, (cyclo)alkyl having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, or an active hydrogen-containing group, (ii) compounds having the structure (II) or (III): where R′ and R″ each independently represents an aromatic group or an alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; and (iii) compounds different from (i) and (ii), having a melting point of at least 80° C. Further provided are methods for preparing the crosslinking agent, curable compositions containing the crosslinking agent, and coated substrates.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2001Date of Patent: September 28, 2004Assignee: PPG Industries Ohio Inc.Inventors: Ronald R. Ambrose, Anthony M. Chasser, Shengkui Hu, Jackie L. Smith

Patent number: 6797749Abstract: The invention provides a powder coating composition in which powder particles are an agglomerate of individual particulate components fused or bonded together into composite particles. Maximizing the amount of larger-sized uncolored component(s) gives cost advantages, and the invention allows a rapid and flexible manufacture of a range of colored powder coating compositions.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2001Date of Patent: September 28, 2004Assignee: International Coatings LimitedInventor: Andrew George Cordiner
