Patent number: 5599855Abstract: A new epoxy hardener composition is the product of the reaction of (A) a poly(alkylene oxide) monoamine or diamine with a molecular weight (Mn) of about 500 to 6000 and (B) a di- or polyepoxide, in a ratio of epoxide to active amine hydrogens of about 1.1:1 to 6:1 to yield an intermediate (C), which in a second step is reacted with (D) a di- or polyamine, in a ratio of active amine hydrogens to epoxide of greater than about 25 to 1, preferably greater than about 30 to 1. The compositions of the invention are excellent emulsifiers of liquid epoxy resins in aqueous medium without the addition of added surfactants or acidic compounds, and can be used to prepare water resistant water-borne coatings and related products from both liquid and solid epoxy resins, that possess long pot lives and contain relatively small amounts of volatile organic compounds.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1995Date of Patent: February 4, 1997Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventor: Frederick H. Walker

Patent number: 5596030Abstract: A new epoxy hardener composition is the product of the reaction of (A) a poly(alkylene oxide) monoamine or diamine with a molecular weight (Mn) of about 500 to 3000 and (B) a di- or polycarboxylic acid, in a ratio of moles of carboxylic acid to equivalents of amine of about 1:1 to 6:1 to yield an intermediate (C), which in a second step is reacted with (D) a di- or polyamine. The compositions of the invention are excellent emulsifiers of liquid epoxy resins in aqueous media without the addition of added surfactants or acidic compounds, and can be used to prepare water resistant water-borne coatings and related products from both liquid and solid epoxy resins, that possess long pot lives and contain relatively small amounts of volatile organic compounds.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 1995Date of Patent: January 21, 1997Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventor: Frederick H.

Patent number: 5527839Abstract: A new epoxy hardener composition is the product of the reaction of (A) a poly(alkylene oxide) monoalcohol with a molecular weight (Mn) of about 500 to 3000 and (B) a polyepoxide, in a molar ratio of polyepoxide to poly(alkylene oxide) monoalcohol of about 1.3:1 to 6:1 to yield an intermediate (C), which in a second step is reacted with (D) a polyamine. The compositions of the invention are excellent emulsifiers of liquid epoxy resins in aqueous media without the addition of added surfactants or acidic compounds, and can be used to prepare water resistant water-borne coatings and related products from both liquid and solid epoxy resins, that possess long pot lives and contain relatively small amounts of volatile organic compounds.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 1994Date of Patent: June 18, 1996Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventor: Frederick H.

Patent number: 5491192Abstract: A non-aqueous dispersion for modifying alkyd-containing coating formulations and a method for manufacturing the non-aqueous dispersion are provided. The non-aqueous dispersion contains from about 10 to about 60 parts by weight of a low molecular weight solution polymer, having a selected glass transition temperature greater than about -10.degree. C., and from about 90 to about 40 parts by weight of a polymer which is insoluble in the non-aqueous medium, and where the soluble polymer is attached to or adsorbed onto the insoluble polymer particles. The non-aqueous dispersion is preferably prepared by dispersion polymerization to form the insoluble polymer in a non-aqueous medium in the presence of the soluble polymer.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 1991Date of Patent: February 13, 1996Assignee: Rohm and Haas CompanyInventors: Frederick H. Walker, Chao-Jen Chung, Andrew Mercurio

Patent number: 5155201Abstract: A polyurethane polyol is provided, which is the reaction product of a particular isocyanate component and a particular diol component in a specified ratio, which polyol component is selected from substantially monomeric diols wherein the hydroxyl groups are separated by 3 carbon atoms or less. Such polyurethane polyols possess a desirable spectrum of molecular weight properties, making them especially suitable for use in formulating high solids, high performance coatings.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 1990Date of Patent: October 13, 1992Assignee: Akzo N.V.Inventors: John L. Gardon, Scott W. Loper, Peter W. Uhlianuk, Frederick H. Walker

Patent number: 5130405Abstract: A high solids coating composition suitable for use, for example, as a high performance automotive coating is provided, which comprises (1) a particular polyurethane polyol which is the reaction product of an symmetric 1,3-diol component and an isocyanate component, and (2) an hydroxyl group-reactive crosslinking agent. When formulated as a one-pack coating preferably with an aminoplast crosslinking agent, these coating compositions possess a number of desirable properties including excellent acid etch resistance.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 1991Date of Patent: July 14, 1992Assignee: Akzo N.V.Inventors: Frederick H. Walker, John L. Gardon
