Abstract: 1-Hydroxy-2-Bromo-3-Allyloxypropane (allyl glycidyl ether bromohydrin) and 1-hydroxy-2-bromo-3-allyloxypropane phophoric acid ester (allyl glycidyl ether bromophosphate), which are useful as polymerizable flame-retardants, are described. 1-Hydroxy-2-bromo-3-allyloxypropane was prepared by the reaction of equimolar amounts of allyl glycidyl ether and hydrobromic acid, in acetic acid, preferably at a temperature in the range of 25.degree.-50.degree. C. and the thus obtained allyl glycidyl ether bromohydrin was phosphated by reaction with a substantially equimolar amount of polyphosphoric acid, preferably at a temperature in the range of about 40.degree.-50.degree. C., to produce the 1-hydroxy-2-bromo-3-allyloxypropane phosphoric acid ester.

Abstract: Air-curing copolymer latices are described. The preferred copolymer latices are prepared by emulsion copolymerization, in the presence of a free radical polymerization catalyst such as inorganic or organic peroxide polymerization catalysts, with a blend (in % by weight based on the total weight of all monomers used) of (a) about 1% to about 20% of dicyclopentadienyl acrylate or dicyclopentadienyl methacrylate, (b) about 99% to about 20% of an alkyl acrylate or methacrylate, including mixtures of such monomers, and preferably a lower alkyl acrylate or methacrylate in which the alkyl groups contain from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, (c) 0% to about 5% of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and (d) 0% to about 85% of other monoethylenically unsaturated copolymerizable monomers.

Abstract: Novel emulsifiable prepolymers for polyurethanes comprising an isocyanate prepolymer a minor proportion of the terminal isocyanate groups of which have been reacted with a quaternized tertiary amino alcohol, storage stable polyurethane latices produced therefrom and methods of making them are described. In a preferred embodiment a conventional isocyanate terminated prepolymer is first produced by the reaction of a polyol, preferably a diol of polyether or polyester origin, with a stoichiometric excess of a polyisocyanate, preferably a diisocyanate such as toluene diisocyanate; this prepolymer is then reacted, under anhydrous conditions, with a small amount, usually from about 1% to 5%, preferably about 1% to about 2%, by weight of a quaternized tertiary amino alcohol. Alternatively, a small amount of the quaternized tertiary amino alcohol may be included in the mixture of polyol and excess isocyanate used for making the prepolymer.

Abstract: Mixed complex organic salts of aluminum sulfate are prepared. The mixed complex salts are soluble in aqueous solutions and have surface active properties. The organic portion of the mixed salts is derived from a member selected from the group of a neutralized salt of an aliphatic alcohol sulfate; an alkylaryl sulfate; an alkyl, aryl, or alkylaryl sulfonate; a dialkyl or alkyloxyalkylene sulfosuccinate; an N-acyl-N-alkyl taurate; a sulfoalkyl ester of a fatty acid; and a sulfated ethylene oxide-propylene oxide block copolymer. Ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, or butylene oxide, or polymers thereof, can be introduced into the organic portion of the mixed salt to obtain a mixed complex aluminum salt which is completely soluble upon any degree of dilution. Non-ethoxylated salts, non-propoxylated and non-butoxylated salts become insoluble upon dilution at specific dilution points depending on the cation of the neutralized salt used to form the mixed complex salt.

Abstract: Novel copolymerizable esters of cinnamic acid or an .omega.-alkenoic acid of from 4 to 18 carbon atoms, such as undecylenic acid, with certain hydroxyalkane sulfonic acids, such as isethionic acid, are described together with processes of making them and copolymers thereof. These novel copolymerizable esters may be made by reaction of the .omega.-alkenoic or cinnamic acid with the hydroxyalkane sulfonic acid or a sultone, such as propane sultone. These novel ester are useful as copolymerizable surfactants in the emulsion polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers; particularly for the production of self-stabilizing latices of polymeric materials possessing excellent mechanical stability and from which can be deposited films having improved adhesion, pigment wetting and bonding properties and greatly improved resistance to water.
