Patent number: 4710525Abstract: Polymer particles dispersible to form a latex and latices of such polymer particles, said particles being adaptable to the fixing or bonding thereto of a biologically active substance and having a core-shell construction wherein the polymer material of the core determines the stability of the form of the latex particles and their redispersibility, and the material of the shell(1) is so hydrophilic that it would be completely or largely water soluble if it were not anchored to the core material and/or crosslinked,(2) contains functional groups which are suitable for the covalent fixation or bonding of biological active substances, and(3) in an anhydrous condition has a T.sub..lambda.max from 20.degree.-250.degree. C., depending on its composition, and methods for bonding a biologically active substance to such particles, for example to prepare a diagnostic reagent.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 1986Date of Patent: December 1, 1987Assignee: Rohm GmbHInventors: Dieter Kraemer, Werner Siol, Gerhard Markert, Norbert Suetterlin, Cornelia Feil

Patent number: 4690980Abstract: A liquid, ungelled composition of matter composed of a graft copolymer prepared by the free radical initiated polymerization in an organic medium of a vinyl monomer component which contains at least 0.5 weight percent of an epoxy group containing vinyl monomer in the presence of an acid group containing polymer having an acid value greater than 10 mg KOH/g. One means of graft formation is the condensation reaction between the acid groups of the acid group containing polymer and the epoxy groups of the vinyl monomer component.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1986Date of Patent: September 1, 1987Assignee: PPG Industries, Inc.Inventors: Debra L. Singer, William J. Birkmeyer, Rostyslaw Dowbenko, Charles M. Kania

Patent number: 4638035Abstract: Disclosed are novel catalyst systems and method for curing a peroxide-curable ethylenically unsaturated (e.g. acrylic or vinyl) composition wherein the catalyst system is a combination of the peroxide curing agent and a Cu.sup.+1 activator or a combination of a peroxide curing agent and an activator system comprising a furfuryl alcohol and an acid catalyst. Also disclosed is a new catalyst system for curing ring compounds (e.g. epoxides) which comprises a combination of ferrocene and a diazonium salt of a Lewis acid. Preferred curable compositions are adhesives and especially acrylic adhesives and epoxy adhesives.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1984Date of Patent: January 20, 1987Assignee: Three Bond Co., Ltd.Inventor: Vincent D.

Patent number: 4611028Abstract: Copolymers adapted for use as stabilizers in dispersions and stable dispersions, including crosslinked dispersions containing microgel particles, prepared therefrom. Stabilizer bears pendent ethylenic unsaturation capable of reacting with monomers employed in random copolymerization used to make the dispersion polymer. Stabilizer comprises a random copolymer segment of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, some of which are characterized in that homopolymers thereof would be substantially insoluble in the organic liquid used to form the stable dispersion and some of which are characterized in that homopolymers thereof would be substantially soluble in the organic liquid used to form the stable dispersion.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1984Date of Patent: September 9, 1986Assignee: Ford Motor CompanyInventors: Stephen C. Peng, John D. Nordstrom
