  • Patent number: 5760108
    Abstract: Self-dispersing curable epoxy resin ester dispersions prepared by a process comprising reacting a self-dispersing curable epoxy resin based on a polyoxyalkyleneamine with a fatty acid selected from the group consisting of drying oil and semi-drying oil fatty acids, are provided. The self-dispersing curable epoxy resin is based on a polyoxyalkyleneamine. Thus, a polyoxyalkyleneamine was present as a chemical precursor of the epoxy resin or a starting material therefor. The self-dispersing curable epoxy resin ester of the invention is in the form of an aqueous dispersion. When dried, films of the self-dispersing curable epoxy resin ester dispersion are useful as a coating composition.

  • Patent number: 5755486
    Abstract: A reinforced structural member has a w-shaped reinforcement member that carries a thermally expandable resin-based material. The w-shaped reinforcement member is placed in the channel of a hollow structural member over a transverse pin which fits through the slot of the reinforcement member. The structural member is heated to expand the resin-based material which locks the reinforcement member in place, thereby significantly strengthening the structural member.
