Abstract: A thermosetting resin composition, containing (A) a thermosetting resin; (B) a curing agent for the thermosetting resin; (C) a polysilane copolymer; and (D) an inorganic filler; wherein the polyailane copolymer (C) is added in amount of about 0.1 to 10% by weight based on the total amount of the resin composition.
Abstract: Methyl- and phenyl-containing fluorosilicone terpolymeric fluids over the range of 30 cps to 200,000 cps are effective as additives for various uses. Over the range of 16,000 to 200,000 cps, the fluids are effective as additives in promoting a finger transferable self-bleed of lubricant in fluorosilicone-containing heat-curable rubber compositions, even after a post-bake of the composition. Over the viscosity range of 30 cps to 1000 cps, the fluids are useful in personal care and cosmetic products as water and oil repellency additives. Methods of ring opening polymerization are used to produce the terpolymeric fluids from cyclic reactants.
Abstract: A resin composition prepared by simultaneously melting and kneading (A) a polyphenylene ether resin, (B) a polyarylene sulfide resin and (C) a functional compound having a bond or a functional group selected from the group consisting of non-aromatic carbon-carbon multiple bond, oxirane group and derived-carboxyl group and subsequently mixing thereinto (D) a polar compound having, in on molecule, at least two polar groups selected from the group consisting of derived-carboxyl group, derived-hydroxyl group, derived-amino group, derived-mercapto group, derived-sulfonic acid group, oxazoline group, cyanamide group, isocyanate group and oxirane group, provided that at least one of the polar groups is different from at least one of the functional groups which the functional compound (C) has.

Abstract: This invention provides a heat-sealable, peelable composition comprising ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, polyethylene based wax and polypropylene. The composition can further comprise a dye or an ink. The composition can be heat-sealed onto a surface of a polymeric bag to provide a peelable seal.A closure arrangement for a polymeric bag with first and second opposing films comprises first and second opposing base strips, a first peelable strip of a first color, and a second peelable strip of a second color. An outer surface of the first base strip is attached to an inner surface of the first film. An outer surface of the second base strip is attached to an inner surface of the second film. The first peelable strip is attached to the inner surface of the first base strip, and the second peelable strip is attached to the inner surface of the second base strip. The first and second peelable strips are disposed between the first and second base strips.
