  • Patent number: 5580933
    Abstract: Grafting chlorinated polyolefins with unsaturated monomers (acrylic, styrene, vinyl) in the presence of AIBN used as a free radical-producing trigger yields resins that can be used as solutions, dilutable in water as required, in order to produce films that are hard, transparent, glossy, and adhesive and which are prized, in particular, in the manufacture of compositions used for pigmented or unpigmented coatings such as paints, inks, and adhesive primary coatings.
