Patent number: 6642337Abstract: The problem addressed by the invention was to find an anionic polymerization inhibitor for cyanoacrylate adhesives containing one or more cyanoacrylates, stabilizers against anionic and radical polymerization and auxiliaries typically used in such adhesive systems which, besides a reliable inhibiting effect, would counteract any increase in the setting time after storage. This problem was solved by using 2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxathiolanes as inhibitors.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2000Date of Patent: November 4, 2003Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf AktienInventors: Hanns-Roland Misiak, Dagmar Behn

Patent number: 6540931Abstract: When iron group, especially high nickel, metal alloys that contain substantial amounts of copper are pickled, a displacement coating of copper that is called a “copper kiss” often forms on the pickled surface from the dissolved copper ions in the pickling solution before the pickling solution can be rinsed away. Traditionally this has been removed by treatment with aqueous ammonia, an annoying and potentially hazardous reagent that in many instances requires expensive pollution abatement devices. In this invention, copper kiss is equally effectively removed by treatment with a mixture of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide, optionally also containing hydrofluoric acid.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2000Date of Patent: April 1, 2003Assignee: Henkel CorporationInventors: Lawrence E.

Patent number: 6521584Abstract: The invention relates to liquid multiphase, essentially CFC-free detergents with at least two continuous phases. The detergents have at least one aqueous phase (I) and a non-aqueous liquid phase (II) that is immiscible with phase (I), and can be temporarily transformed into an emulsion by shaking.

Patent number: 6515164Abstract: A low-monomer PU prepolymer containing free NCO groups which is obtained from polyhydric alcohols and diisocyanates differing in their reactivity and which is distinguished by the ratio of the NCO groups of the partly slower-reacting diisocyanate to the NCO groups of the faster-reacting diisocyanate. It is greater than 6:1. Nevertheless the prepolymer according to the invention cures more quickly than a known prepolymer predominantly containing fast-reacting NCO groups. In a preferred embodiment, TDI is used as the partly slower-reacting diisocyanate while MDI is used as the faster-reacting diisocyanate. The prepolymer is produced in two stages. The prepolymer according to the invention is suitable for bonding plastic articles, metals and paper, especially films. The accelerated absence of migration is particularly noticeable in this regard.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 1999Date of Patent: February 4, 2003Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf AktienInventors: Gerd Bolte, Guenter Henke, Markus Kruedenscheidt, Astrid Omoruyi
