  • Patent number: 9394244
    Abstract: Disclosed are functional polyallophanate oligomers comprising ethylenically unsaturated groups and polymer stabilizer groups selected from hindered amine light stabilizers, ultraviolet light absorbers, antioxidants and dihydrocarbylhydroxylamines. The ethylenically unsaturated groups and the polymer stabilizer groups are bound to the polyallophanate oligomers through allophanate and/or carbamate groups. The polyallophanate oligomers are useful in curable coatings, inks and varnishes. The present polyallophanate oligomers are derived from a) organic polyisocyanates, b) compounds containing at least one isocyanate reactive group and at least one ethylenically unsaturated group and c) polymer stabilizers containing at least one isocyanate reactive group.

  • Patent number: 6777459
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel photoinitiator system comprising one or more acylphosphine oxide photoinitiators and one or more lightfast red, blue or violet organic pigments. Low yellow color formation results upon curing ethylenically unsaturated compounds with the new photoinitiator system. Particular applications include clear and white coatings, screen inks, gel coats, powder coatings, composites, adhesives and lenses.

  • Patent number: 5705116
    Abstract: Polymer precursor formulations suitable for stereolithography may be prepared from compositions containing vinyl ether functionalized compounds and epoxy functionalized compounds plus an effective mount of a cationic photoinitiator and an ultraviolet light-absorbing compound to provide a predetermined depth of cure. Preferably, the ultraviolet light-absorbing compound is anthracene or its derivatives. Anthracenes having pendant alkoxy groups are preferred for use with light wavelengths greater than 360 nm, particularly 9,10-dimethoxy-2-ethyl anthracene.
