  • Laminates of glass or metal and poly(alkylene dicarboxylates) and syntheses thereof
    Patent number: 6011133
    Abstract: Poly(alkylene dicarboxylate) polymers and copolymers having tetraalkyl- or trialkylammonium ion end groups and methods of synthesis, thereof. The methylene-containing copolymers, in general, adhere to glass and metals, including aluminum, iron, and copper. Poly(methylene-co-ethylene terephthalate) is a clear film useful in the protection of metals or glass from corrosion or scratching. Glass may be bound to glass or to metal using the polymers of the present invention or metal to metal seals may be made.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 16, 1998
    Date of Patent: January 4, 2000
    Assignee: Baylor University
    Inventors: A. G. Pinkus, Rajan Hariharan

  • Bis (tetraalkylammonium) oxalate
    Patent number: 5426218
    Abstract: A poly(methylene oxalate) polymer [poly(oxy(1,2-dioxo-1,2-ethanediyl)oxymethylene)], a bis(tetrabutylammonium)oxalate salt, methods of synthesis thereof and methods of use. Poly(methylene oxalate) is insoluble in all common organic solvents, does not melt and is resistant to fire. Applications are as a light-weight material for use at high temperatures, e.g. as a structural material in aircraft and space vehicles, as a binder for brake systems, and as an insulator for microelectronic components.
