Abstract: Large acrylic star polymers containing multifunctional monomers in the core are made by group transfer polymerization techniques, preferably by arm-first, core-first, or arm-core-arm approaches.
Abstract: Particulate polymethyl methacrylate polymerized in the presence of alumina trihydrate filler provides a superior blasting media for cleaning surfaces, such as for stripping paint from sensitive substrates like aluminum aircraft skin.
Abstract: Silylated oxyanion catalysts, such as trimethyl silyl 3-chlorobenzoate, provide increased livingness of group transfer polymerization, thereby permitting higher molecular weights and polymerization efficiencies.
Abstract: The ungelled reaction product of an acrylic prepolymer, a diol and a diisocyanate, reacted in the presence of a small amount of a monoalcohol to prevent gelling, is an acrylourethane polymer which may be acid modified and is useful in high solids coating compositions.

Abstract: A process for coating polyvinyl fluoride layers on one or both sides of a textile material in the form of a coalesced gel which is subsequently cured by heating.
Abstract: A blend of major amounts of a first silicon resin having relatively low proportions of silanol, phenyl and methyl groups with minor amounts of a second silicone resin having higher such proportions, preferably with aluminum flake, gives good adhesion to steel, aluminum and glass substrates and good non-stick performance for cooking foods. It can be used as a single-layer coating.
Abstract: An apparatus, process and distributor for providing thin, uniform coating of thixotropic materials on substrates, especially on cylinders. The distributor equally subdivides the coating composition from entry ports to a plurality of exit ports.
Abstract: Large acrylic star polymers, having a low polydispersity of polymer molecular weight and of arm molecular weight and containing single- and multi-functional monomers in the core.
Abstract: Large acrylic star polymers, having a low polydispersity of polymer molecular weight and of arm molecular weight and containing multifunctional monomers in the core.
Abstract: The viscosity of thixotropic dispersions of polyvinyl flouride in latent solvents is controlled by adding volatile alcohols or acids to decrease viscosity, stirring the dispersion to eliminate gas bubbles, and then adding volatile amines to increase viscosity on curing the amine and the alcohol or acid evaporate together to keep viscosity in desirable ranges.
Abstract: Substrates are coated by heating the substrates to temperatures of 120.degree.-260.degree. C. and dipping them into a bath of polyvinyl fluoride dispersed in latent solvent at temperatures below 100.degree. C.
Abstract: A process for curing a coating of plastisol or organosol on a hollow massive object by maintaining sufficient concentration of latent solvent in and near the coating to permit coalescence of the coating at temperatures above the boiling point of the latent solvent. Internal heating of the object is used.
Abstract: An epoxyester linear block oligomer made with n-1 moles fatty acid units terminated with carboxylic acid groups and n moles of epoxy oligomer, when filled with carbon black, is a particularly effective electrically conductive primer for use over organic-based composites to be electrostatically painted.

Abstract: The duration of "livingness" in group transfer polymerization with oxyanion catalysts is enhanced by the presence of agents such as acetonitrile or silylated acetonitrile, resulting in higher molecular weight and/or lower polydispersity in the resulting polymers.

Abstract: A process for cathodic electrodeposition of small particle, below 20 .mu.m, resin powders coated with precipitated or adsorbed metal oxide or hydroxide at a pH above the isoelectric point giving a zeta potential of at least as negative as minus 35 millivolts. The preparation of the bath is also part of the invention.
Abstract: Coating compositions of poly(arylene sulfide) and polytetrafluoroethylene have enhanced adhesion to substrates when they include barium or calcium sulfate, especially for coil coating use on cookware.
