Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of monomers bearing associative groups in order to manufacture a supramolecular polycondensate, to certain of these monomers, to a process for manufacturing a supramolecular polycondensate, to the polycondensate obtained, and also to an article or a composition incorporating same.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the field of thermosetting or thermoset polymers mainly used as materials, coatings or adhesives. The invention more specifically relates to the use of specific molecules having associative groups including a nitrogen heterocycle as a hardener or co-hardener of thermosetting polymers.

Abstract: A subject matter of the present invention is a composition comprising: (i) from 0.1 to 49 parts by weight of at least one thermoplastic condensation polymer; and (ii) from 51 to 99.9 parts by weight of at least one supramolecular polymer capable of being obtained by the reaction of at least one at least trifunctional compound (A) carrying first and second functional groups with: at least one compound (B) carrying, on the one hand, at least one reactive group capable of reacting with the first functional groups of (A) and, on the other hand, at least one associative group; and at least one at least bifunctional compound (C), the functional groups of which are capable of reacting with the second functional groups of the compound (A) in order to form ester, thioester or amide bridges.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use, as neutralizing and/or co-dispersion agent in a paint and/or as agent for developing the coloring power of pigment(s) in a white paint base that we wish to color, of at least one hydroxylated secondary or tertiary amine. The invention also relates to pigment concentrates and paints containing at least one hydroxylated secondary or tertiary amine.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of neutralizing paints, that includes adding at least one associative neutralizing agent to a formulation such as a pigment concentrate, a white paint base or paint. The associative neutralizing agent includes at least one neutralizing group N and at least one nitrogenous associative group A bonded together by at least one “spacer” group Sp. The invention also relates to pigment concentrates and to paints containing at least one such associative neutralizing agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved process for preparing foundry shapes by the cold box process, a process for making cores and moulds and a process for casting metals, carrying out as curing catalyst system a blend comprising at least two tertiary amines.
