  • Patent number: 5536445
    Abstract: A surfactant comprising a carboxylic acid ester or amide carrying a terminal strong acid group selected from carboxymethyl, sulphate, sulphonate, phosphate and phosphonate, suitable for stabilising dispersions of solids in organic liquids and oil/water emulsions, processes for the preparation of the surfactant and dispersions and emulsions containing the surfactant. A preferred species of the surfactant is a poly(hydroxyalkanecarboxylic acid) having the strong acid group attached, either directly or through a linking group, to a terminal hydroxy or carboxylic acid group.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 14, 1993
    Date of Patent: July 16, 1996
    Assignee: Zeneca Limted
    Inventors: Frederick Campbell, John D. Schofield, Alan S. Baker

  • Patent number: 4861380
    Abstract: A composition comprising a finely-divided non-magnetic solid and a dispersant comprising a poly(C.sub.2-4 -alkyleneimine) carrying at least two mono- or poly-(carbonyl-C.sub.1-7 -alkyleneoxy) groups, a dispersion of the composition in an organic medium and a dispersant comprising a poly(C.sub.2-4 -alkyleneimine) carrying at least two carbonyl- C.sub.1-7 -alkyleneoxy groups.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 27, 1988
    Date of Patent: August 29, 1989
    Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries PLC
    Inventors: Frederick Campbell, John M. Geary, John D. Schofield
  • Patent number: 4645611
    Abstract: A dispersion of finely divided particles of a magnetic material in an organic liquid containing a dispersant comprising an amine carrying a poly(carbonylalkyleneoxy) chain (PCAO chain) in which the alkylene groups contain up to 8 carbon atoms, or an acid-salt thereof. The dispersion is useful for the preparation of magnetic recording media such as video, audio and computer recording tapes and discs. Certain of the dispersants are novel, especially a polyethyleneimine carrying at least two PCAO chains.
