Abstract: Amino resins, e.g., urea-formaldehyde and melamine-formaldehyde thermosetting resins, are cured with a latent catalyst which is a thermally-decomposable adduct of an aromatic sulfonic acid (e.g., p-toluene sulfonic acid) and a bicyclic oxazolidines (e.g., 1-aza-3,7-dioxa-5-ethylbicyclo (3.3.0) octane. The coating compositions can contain other conventional co-reactants, such as polyols, polyacids, alkyd resins, polyester resins, epoxies, acrylics and the like. Coatings containing the amino resin, co-reactant, and latent catalyst have an acceptable viscosity stability, cure rapidly at temperatures lower than some other latent catalysts, and produce films with no wrinkles.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a polymeric isocyanate modified epoxy blocked sulfonic acid ester as a catalyst for the crosslinking of polymers having hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amide functional groups with a crosslinking agent and resin compositions containing the same. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a polymeric isocyanate modified epoxy blocked sulfonic acid ester with a molecular weight of about 1000 preferably prepared from a sulfonic acid, an epoxy resin and a mono- or di-isocyanate and resin compositions containing the polymeric isocyanate modified epoxy blocked sulfonic acid ester catalyst. The catalyst when used in the crosslinking or curing of hydroxyl, carboxyl or amide containing polymers with an acid catalyzed amino-formaldehyde crosslinking agent, such as hexamethoxymethylmelamine ("HMMA"), produced polymeric film coatings which have superior hardness, impact resistance, adhesion, improved blister resistance, salt spray characteristics and flexibility.

C., e.g., 200.degree. C., for 20 hours.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel processes for the production of enhanced yields of polyalkylaromatic polysulfonic acids. More particularly, the invention pertains to processes for sulfonating polyalkylaromatic compounds employing sulfuric acid treatment and recovering the polyalkylaromatic polysulfonic acid produced thereby after formation of a three phase system by the addition of controlled amounts of water, causing the polysulfonic acid to accumulate in the bottom layer, with which it is readily separated.

Abstract: An object and bulk material holding container having a floor attached to corner units for supporting upright walls. The corner units have enclosed pockets for receiving lower ends of the posts joined to the walls. Cooperating notch and tabs on the posts and corner units function in conjunction with the lower ends of the posts to hold the walls in generally upright positions. Foldable gates extend adjacent posts. The gates can be folded down onto the top of the floor along with the walls to place the container in a collapsed storable condition. In one form the floor has laterally movable extensions that are locked in selected positions to change the width of the floor.

Abstract: Improved solvent-extractants for the selective recovery of metal values from acidic aqueous media comprise solutions of 5-alkylbenzotriazoles in water-immiscible organic solvents. Extraction efficiency is enhanced by addition to the solvent-extractant of alkyl aromatic sulfonic acids, alkyl phosphoric acids or carboxylic acids. Especially important applications for the improved solvent-extractants are in the recovery of copper (II) from cobalt (II), copper (II) from nickel (II), copper (II) from iron (III), copper (II) from zinc (II), nickel (II) from cobalt (II), nickel (II) from zinc (II), nickel (II) from iron (III), iron (III) from magnesium (II), and cobalt (II) from zinc (II).

Abstract: Amino resins, e.g., urea-formaldehyde and melamine-formaldehyde thermosetting resin systems, are cured with thermally-decomposable adducts of aromatic sulfonic acids and oxa-azacyclopentanes.
