Abstract: A novel methacrylate-based composition is disclosed. The composition is preferably used as an adhesive. The composition comprises an acrylate-based or methacrylate-based ester monomer, a catalyst, a chlorinated or chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer resin and a graft co-polymer resin. The chlorinated polyethylene polymer resin used includes organic sulfonyl chloride. The composition preferably further includes an acrylate-based or methacrylate-based acid monomer, and a catalyst activator. A preferred chlorosulfonated polyethylene polymer resin contains about 43 weight percent chlorine, about 1.1 weight percent sulfur, and about 34 millimoles sulfonyl chloride moiety per 100 grams thereof. Preferred graft co-polymer resins are ABS, MBS, MABS, ASA, all-acrylic, SA EPDM and MAS. More-preferred graft co-polymer resins are MABS, ASA, all-acrylic and MBS. Most-preferred graft co-polymer resins are MABS and ASA. A preferred methacrylate-based acid monomer is methacrylic acid.
Abstract: Organophilic clays, having enhanced dispersibility in organic systems are made by reacting a smectite type clay with a quaternary ammonium compound and a betaine type compound. These organophilic clays are useful for alteriing the rheological properties of organic systems.

Abstract: This invention provides a process for preparing a viscoelastic aqueous solution which contains divinylsulfone-crosslinked polygalactomannan gum that is formed in situ.An invention thixotropic aqueous medium is characterized by excellent heat/shear stability and high tolerance to the presence of inorganic salts.A unique property of an invention thixotropic aqueous medium is a time-dependent gradual restoration of high viscosity after cessation of high shear deformation.
Abstract: Heat curable coating compositions particularly suitable as coatings for metal can ends are made from aqueous dispersions of epoxy resins, acrylic resins which are copolymers of polymerizable acids and other monomers, and alkylated phenol novolac resins.
Abstract: Blends of ortho substituted dicyanate esters and unsubstituted dicyanate esters when partially reacted to form co-prepolymers are appreciably lower in viscosity at process temperatures than the homo-prepolymers of a particular dicyante. When cured, the blends exhibit excellent heat and moisture resistance properties. The cured compositions are useful in structural composites, filmed structural adhesives and printed wiring boards.
Abstract: Water reducible, water-remoistenable adhesive compositions are made from a blend of (a) an aqueous emulsion of a polymer of vinyl acetate, (b) an organic solvent solution of a copolymer of vinyl acetate and vinyl pyrrolidone having dextrin dispersed therein, and (c) an aqueous emulsion of an ester gum tackifier.
Abstract: Thermally curable coating compositions having particularly good adhesion to metal substrates are made from a blend of a polyacrylate and phosphoric acid.

Abstract: Aqueous solutions of polygalactomannans are cross-linked with the reaction product of titanium tetrachloride and a water-soluble alcohol or diol further reacted with ammonia or a water-soluble amine. Such crosslinked products are useful in fracturing solutions for secondary oil recovery or in gel explosives.
Abstract: Radiation curable copolymers useful in coating compositions are prepared by reacting part of the glycidyl groups of a glycidyl acrylate copolymer with acrylic or methacrylic acid followed by esterifying the remaining glycidyl groups with phosphoric acid.
Abstract: The viscosity of thickened aqueous solutions of water-soluble polymers is reduced by the addition of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of hypochlorous acid and tertiary amines. The combination of the salt and the tertiary amine is much more efficient in speed of reduction in viscosity and in the completeness of the degradation of the polymer than the use of the metal salt alone. The process of this invention is particularly useful in fracturing of oil wells.
