  • Patent number: 12037488
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a liquid molding compound and preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductor packaging. The liquid molding compound includes: the following components in mass fraction, a filler 83%-88%, an epoxy resin 6%-9%, a curing agent 6%-9%, a colorant 0.1%-0.2%, an accelerator 0.1%-0.3%, and a paraffin oil 0.3%-0.6%; by adding paraffin oil that has a small surface activity, paraffin oil does not participate in the reaction between epoxy resin and curing agent, is easily compatible with epoxy resin, and easy to precipitate under heating conditions. The precipitated paraffin oil forms a spacer layer between the colloid surface and the thermal release tape. The paraffin oil of the spacer layer has almost no adhesion to the acrylic adhesive on the thermal release tape, so the thermal release tape can be easily removed at a certain temperature to achieve the effect of no residual adhesive.

  • Patent number: 11945967
    Abstract: A method for forming a benzophenone-containing emulsion is provided. The method includes a step of forming a pre-emulsion by combining a monomer composition with a benzophenone or a benzophenone derivative in water, the monomer composition including one or more monomers selected from the group consisting of (meth)acrylic acid monomers and (meth)acrylic monomers, vinyl acetate, aromatic monomers, vinyl neodecanoate, and combinations thereof. The pre-emulsion is polymerized by combining the pre-emulsion with a radical initiator in a reactor to form a reaction mixture that polymerizes to form an emulsion polymer. This procedure implements novel and easily polymerizable benzophenone (meth)acrylates) into the polymer backbone preventing them from leaching out of finished coatings. Advantageously, the benzophenone-containing emulsions can be used to form paint coatings with dirt pick-up resistance while maintaining the excellent flexibility of paint finishes to limit cracking of the final film.

  • Patent number: 11920092
    Abstract: The present invention is related to the use of ethylene alkanoate-alkyl acrylate bipolymers with a high randomness monomers distribution, which are synthesized by semicontinuous emulsion polymerization process, characterized because it is carried out using slow addition rate of the pre-emulsion feeding ({dot over (q)}?0.009 kgL·L?1·min?1), stabilized this last one by alkyl glycol ether type surfactants, at temperatures higher than 75° C. and with solids contents above 25 wt %, which avoids the formation of large sequences (blocks) of a same monomer. This structural characteristic gives the ethylene alkanoate-alkyl acrylate bipolymers a high efficiency as chemical agents for removal of complex water/crude oil emulsions of crude oil blends.
