Abstract: Low molecular weight, non-ionic copolymers of acrylamide and a monomer selected from the group consisting of styrene, alkyl (C.sub.4 -C.sub.24) substituted acrylamides and ethylene provide improved mechanical and heat stability to colloidal aqueous rosin dispersions.
Abstract: Polyquaternary polymeric flocculants, containing a substantially reduced total residual amount of epihalohydrin and 1,3-dihalo-2-propanol and less than about 1000 ppm of dialkylamine, are produced by reacting a polyquaternary polymer prepared from epihalohydrin, dialkylamine, and optionally a polyfunctional amine with a compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are alkyl (C.sub.1 -C.sub.3), and R.sub.5 is hydrogen or hydroxyl.

Abstract: Processes for reacting aryl vinyl compounds, nitriles, and halogens to provide imidoyl halides; processes for preparing amidine hydrohalides from the imidoyl compounds; processes for producing novel imidazolines from the amidine hydrohalides; processes for preparing novel amidoamines from the imidazolines; processes for preparing novel diamines from the amidoamines, together with novel nitrogen-containing products so produced, such products being useful for the production of various imidazothiazoles including tetramisole.
Abstract: There are provided polysubstituted butanoic acids, esters and derivatives thereof, methods for preparing the same and herbicidal compositions employing said polysubstituted butanoic acids, esters and derivatives.
Abstract: Processes for reacting arylvinyl oxides and alkoxyethylamines to provide novel N-substituted alkoxyethylamines; processes for reacting the novel N-substituted amines with nitriles to provide novel amidoamines; processes for preparing novel diamines from the amidoamines, together with the novel nitrogen-containing products so produced, such products being useful for the preparation of various imidazothiazoles including tetramisole.
Abstract: There are provided certain substituted phenylalkoxy-phenylurea compounds, methods for the preparation thereof, and methods for the selective control of dicotyledonous and certain monocotyledonous plants in the presence of agronomic crops.
