Abstract: Novel 2-vinyl- and 2-ethylcyclopropane carboxylates useful as pesticides, herbicides and chemical intermediates are provided. The products of this invention contain two gem carboxylate ##STR1## groups, which can be the same or different. The carboxylate groups will contain an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, heteroalkyl or heterocyclic moiety.
Abstract: Improved supported thallium(III) reagents are provided which significantly improve reaction rates and product selectivity of oxythallation reactions. The present reagents have a thallium(III) salt of an acid on the surface and within montmorillonite clay minerals.

Abstract: Polyamides and polyesters having greatly improved resistance to static electricity buildup are obtained by the incorporation of about 0.1 to 20 weight percent poly(alkylene ether) esters of polybasic acid. The antistatic properties of these polymers is significantly improved when poly(ethylene oxide) esters of dimer and trimer acids are employed.
Abstract: A process is provided for the continuous or semi-continuous production of hetero-macrocyclic compounds including lactones and cyclic esters. The process involves the catalyzed depolymerization of a linear polyester at an elevated temperature and under reduced pressure in the presence of a specified amount of monocarboxylate moieties and while providing top-to-bottom mixing throughout essentially the total volume of the reaction mass.
Abstract: Copolyesters are provided which are derived from mixed dibasic acids and a branched-chain diol. These copolyesters possess a unique balance of physical and chemical characteristics which permits their use in small amounts in blood separation tubes to provide an effective barrier between the light and heavy phases of the blood after centrifuging.
Abstract: Soaps and ester-soaps of high molecular weight .alpha.-alkyl branched aliphatic monocarboxylic acids obtained from high molecular weight .alpha.-olefins are useful lubricants for structural resins. The high molecular weight acids useful for the preparation of the soaps and ester-soaps are obtained by the free radical addition of a short-chain monocarboxylic acid and .alpha.-olefins containing 22 or more carbon atoms. The soaps and ester-soaps of this invention provide excellent internal-external lubrication for PVC homopolymers and copolymers.
Abstract: Improved rolling oil compositions are obtained by blending a petroleum base oil with a polymeric fatty acid, a fatty alcohol and lower alkyl ester of a fatty acid. These formulations are extremely effective for use in the cold rolling of aluminum and aluminum alloys.
Abstract: This invention relates to a method for protecting aluminum and aluminum alloy products against water staining. The method involves applying a continuous film of a protective composition to the surface of the aluminum product. The protective compositions useful for the invention are blends or reaction products of a polybasic acid and a partial ester of a polyol.
Abstract: Copolyamides derived from mixed acids (a polymeric fatty acid and short-chain dibasic acid) and mixed amines (a polyoxyalkylene diamine and a short-chain diamine) are provided. These thermoplastic resin compositions are excellent reinforcing adhesives for flexible substrates and are particularly useful as box-toe construction resins.

Abstract: Polyester plasticizers having improved low temperature properties are obtained by terminating the polyester with mixed chain-terminating agents. Mixtures of monobasic acids and monofunctional alcohols are employed for this purpose. The polyesters of this invention find particular utility as plasticizers for PVC homopolymers and copolymers.

Abstract: Mixed ester products obtained by treatment of a triglyceride under transesterification conditions with a polyoxyalkylene glycol and a high molecular weight dicarboxylic acid, such as polymer acids, are useful metal working fluids. The modified triglycerides exhibit enhanced thermal stability and can be used either in neat form or in solution, particularly with 40 SUS to 300 SUS mineral oils.
Abstract: Amino-amides obtained by the reaction of polymeric fatty acids with poly(oxyethylene) diamines are readily compatible with water in all proportions and form clear, aqueous solutions which have excellent lubricating properties.
Abstract: Soaps and ester-soaps of high molecular weight branched- and straight-chain aliphatic monocarboxylic acids obtained from .alpha.-olefins containing 22 or more carbon atoms are useful lubricants for structural resins. High molecular weight acids useful for the preparation of the soaps and ester-soaps are obtained by the free radical addition of a short chain monocarboxylic acid to C.sub.22+ olefin or by ozonization of the C.sub.22+ olefin. The products of this invention provide excellent internal-external lubrication for PVC homopolymers and copolymers.

The modified triglycerides exhibit enhanced thermal stability and can be used either in neat form or in solution and are readily compatible with water to provide stable aqueous emulsions and dispersions having superior lubrication properties.
Abstract: Improved quaternary ammonium compositions are provided wherein quaternized ammonium derivatives of lanolin acids are combined with specific branched-chain diols. These compositions exhibit improved water solubility and have excellent compatibility with anionic emulsifiers and surfactants which make them extremely useful for the preparation of clear cosmetic formulations.
