  • Water curable, azide sulfonyl silane modified ethylene polymers
    Patent number: 4551504
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to water curable polymers of an azide sulfonyl silane and a substantially linear, low pressure ethylene polymer which are resistant to water and electrical treeing and can be used as coverings, such as insulation, about wires and cables.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 18, 1984
    Date of Patent: November 5, 1985
    Assignee: Union Carbide Corporation
    Inventor: Austin E. Barnabeo
  • Reactive organo titanate catalysts
    Patent number: 4524201
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to preformed, reactive catalysts, which are the reaction products of a mixture containing an organo titanate, a polyol and a monohydric alcohol. These catalysts can be admixed with alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers to provide compositions which can be extruded about electrical wires and cables and cured, at improved cure rates, to crosslinked products characterized by improved physical properties.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 2, 1983
    Date of Patent: June 18, 1985
    Assignee: Union Carbide Corporation
    Inventors: Austin E. Barnabeo, Michael J. Keogh
  • Water curable, azide sulfonyl silane modified, alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers
    Patent number: 4514545
    Abstract: The disclosure of this application is directed to water-curable, azide sulfonyl silane modified, alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers which are particularly useful as coverings about wires and cables providing insulation or jacketing thereon having improved elongation properties.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 18, 1984
    Date of Patent: April 30, 1985
    Assignee: Union Carbide Corporation
    Inventor: Austin E. Barnabeo
  • Curable compositions, based on alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers, containing preformed, reactive organo titanate catalysts
    Patent number: 4415710
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a preformed, reactive catalyst, which is the reaction product of a mixture containing an organo titanate, a polyol and a monohydric alcohol. These catalysts can be admixed with alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers to provide compositions which can be extruded about electrical wires and cables and cured, at improved cure rates, to crosslinked products characterized by improved physical properties.

  • Polysiloxanes and the use thereof in the production of silane modified alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers
    Patent number: 4408011
    Abstract: Polysiloxanes prepared by reacting a diester and a monomeric silane and the use of the polysiloxanes to produce silane modified, water-curable copolymers by reacting the polysiloxanes with alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers in the presence of an organo titanate catalyst. The copolymers so produced can be extruded about electrical conductors and water-cured providing insulation or jacketing thereon.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 13, 1982
    Date of Patent: October 4, 1983
    Assignee: Union Carbide Corporation
    Inventor: Austin E. Barnabeo
  • Crosslinkable compositions based on alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymers containing a polyol, an organo titanate and a molecular sieve
    Patent number: 4374958
    Abstract: The disclosure of this application is directed to a composition based on an alkylene-alkyl acrylate copolymer, a polyhydric alcohol and an organio titanate, the cure rate of which can be retarded by the addition thereto of a molecular sieve. The composition disclosed can be extruded about wire and cables providing protective coatings thereon.
