  • Aqueous Polymer Compositions Exhibiting Increased Open Time With Reduced Levels Of Volatile Organic Compounds
    Publication number: 20090292058
    Abstract: In addition to acting as effective plasticizers, certain acid, carboxylate and hydroxyl-functional liquid polyesters that are liquid at 25° C. can be used as at least partial replacements for the more volatile organic compounds conventionally used as coalescents and/or property enhancers in aqueous film-forming compositions. The resultant compositions exhibit reduced VOC values relative to prior art compositions exhibiting comparable levels of application and coating properties.

  • Novel High Viscosity Liquid Benzoate Ester Compositions And Polymer Compositions Containing Said Ester Compositions
    Publication number: 20090036581
    Abstract: Ester compositions based on blends of the mono- and dibenzoates of 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol and containing a minimum of 87 weight percent of the dibenzoate are novel and exhibit viscosities that are unexpectedly high relative to the benzoates of other mono- and polyfunctional alcohols. These viscosities are not exhibited at lower concentrations of the dibenzoate.
