Daniel Blickberndt has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6841619
    Abstract: The present invention provides an olefin-based block copolymer that has an olefin block that is substantially saturated and at least one (poly)ester or (poly)ether block. The olefin-based block copolymer of the invention can be prepared by reacting a liquid hydroxyl-functional, saturated or substantially saturated olefin polymer with a chain-extension reagent that is reactive with hydroxyl groups and will polymerize in a head-to-tail arrangement of monomer units. The olefin-based block copolymer of the invention can be used to prepare an adhesion promoter that provides excellent adhesion of subsequent coating layers to olefinic substrates like TPO and superior properties as compared to previously used adhesion promoters containing chlorinated polyolefins.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2001
    Date of Patent: January 11, 2005
    Assignee: BASF Corporation
