Publication number: 20030109666Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel thermosetting resin compositions which do not require solvent to provide a system having suitable viscosity for convenient handling. Invention compositions have the benefit of undergoing rapid cure. The resulting thermosets are stable to elevated temperatures, are highly flexible, have low moisture uptake and are consequently useful in a variety of applictions, e.g., in adhesive applications since they display good adhesion to both the substrate and the device attached thereto.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2002Publication date: June 12, 2003Applicant: Loctite CorporationInventors: Stephen M.

Patent number: 6562881Abstract: An alkoxylate adduct of a polyol. The polyol is an amorphous diol having a melting point above about 100° C. The alkoxylate is propylene oxide, butylene oxide, a mixture of propylene oxide and butylene oxide or a mixture of one or both of propylene oxide and butylene oxide with up to 50 mole % of ethylene oxide. The first polyol has an average of from about 1 to about 5 units of alkoxylate per mole of said amorphous diol. The adduct is useful in preparing urethane (meth)acrylate capped resins and compositions thereof. Resins prepared from such adducts have better manufacturing and solubility properties while retaining similar physical properties to resins prepared from the unadducted diol. The adduct may be for instance a propoxylate of hydrogenated bisphenol A having an average of from 1.5 to 3.5 moles of PO per mole of hydrogenated bisphenol A.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2001Date of Patent: May 13, 2003Assignee: Henkel Loctite CorporationInventors: Anthony Jacobine, David Glaser

Publication number: 20030065069Abstract: Cyanoacrylate composition, having a cure indicator within the composition, is disclosed herein. The cyanoacrylate composition is “self-indicating” with respect to its ability to allow the end user to visually inspect the composition to determine whether, and the extent to which, cure has occurred. The composition includes a cyanoacrylate component, and a dye dissolved in the cyanoacrylate component. The cyanoacrylate composition has an initial color, oftentimes colorless or substantially so to the naked eye, and when cured, the cured cyanoacrylate composition has a different or second color. Observation of the second or different color is indicative that cure has occurred and the extent of the color change can be used to determine the degree of cure that has occurred.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 18, 2002Publication date: April 3, 2003Applicant: LOCTITE CORPORATIONInventor: Stan Wojciak

Patent number: 6521731Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided free-radical polymerizable compositions comprising polycyclic olefins, wherein the polycyclic olefins contain little, if any, cyclopentenyl unsaturation. As a result, these olefins are sufficiently reactive with the propagating free-radicals during cure to provide a highly crosslinked thermoset resin. Moreover, invention compositions comprise high molecular weight polycyclic olefins having low volatility. Accordingly, the observed undesirable weight loss upon cure of prior art thermosetting compositions is considerably reduced. Further provided by the present invention are compositions comprising functionalized polycyclic olefin monomers. These functionalized olefin monomers provide additional benefits such as increased adhesion to a variety of surfaces and greater control over glass transition temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2001Date of Patent: February 18, 2003Assignee: Henkel Loctite CorporationInventors: Stephen M.

Patent number: 6516853Abstract: The present invention provides an improved method and apparatus for manufacturing elastic hair fasteners that eliminate the need for a metal clamp in the fastener assembly. The apparatus of the present invention that employs the inventive process is an incremental, automatic system that utilizes intricate mechanisms that are pneumatically actuated and controlled electrically. The machine feeds textile feedstock from a bulk supply along a feed track to a predefined staging position. Once the feedstock has reached this position, it is cut into an extension having a predetermined length and a pair of opposed free ends. The extension is rolled into a half circle, and one free end is positioned in a precise location. In this location, adhesive is applied to the free end, and the other half of the extension is thereafter rolled into a half circle, completing the loop. At this point, the two loop ends are positioned adjacent one another so as to be adhesively joined.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2001Date of Patent: February 11, 2003Assignee: Loctite CorporationInventors: Karl Gabrielson, James Serenson, Salvatore J.

Publication number: 20030019576Abstract: A method of removing an electronic component from a substrate to which it is electrically interconnected through softening of a cured resin composition is disclosed. The method involves applying infrared radiation directly to the electronic component such that radiant energy transfers through the electronic component to the resin composition, to cause the resin composition to soften. The radiant energy may be transferred directly through the electronic component, such as when the electronic component is at least partially transparent to infrared radiation. Also, the radiant energy may be transferred indirectly, with the electronic component at least partially absorbing the infrared radiation, causing an increase in temperature of the electronic component, which in turn causes an increase in temperature of the resin composition. After the resin composition is softened, it is removed from the substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2002Publication date: January 30, 2003Applicant: LOCTITE CORPORATIONInventors: Afranio Torres-Filho, Lawrence N. Crane

Patent number: 6511707Abstract: A controllable device for applying a flowable material such as anti-seize composition to a workpiece utilizes a plurality of elongated nozzles insertably accommodated through a fixture plate to deposit such material onto the workpiece in a predetermined pattern. The fixture plate is provided with a corresponding number of apertures which accommodate different sizes and numbers of nozzles so that material may be applied to a large variety of workpieces without significant maintenance and modification to the device. The fixture plate is essential to define a predetermined clearance between an outlet through which the flowable material escapes from a nozzle and a surface onto which such material is applied and further cleans the nozzles in between application cycles to prevent overrun on to a workpiece surface.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2000Date of Patent: January 28, 2003Assignee: Loctite CorporationInventors: David Francis MacDonald, Michael Rollins McKinley, Christopher Lee Musante, Salvatore John Shifrin
