  • Publication number: 20210388213
    Abstract: A process for producing an aqueous coating composition comprises providing an aqueous polymer dispersion having a pH <7 and adding to the dispersion 1 to 30 ppm of 5-chloro-2-methyl-3(2H)-isothiazolone (CIT) and 10 to 1000 ppm of 2,2-dibro-mo-3-nitrilopropionamide (DBNPA), all by weight of the total weight of the dispersion. At least one adjuvant is also added to the dispersion to produce a coating composition. When the coating composition is to be put into service, the DBNPA is decomposed by raising the pH of the coating composition and the CIT is decomposed either by raising the pH of the coating composition or by adding a CIT-decomposing compound to the coating composition.

  • Patent number: 11098147
    Abstract: An aqueous polymer dispersion is produced by multistage emulsion polymerization, in which a monomer composition I comprising 19 to 29 wt % hard monomers and 64 to 74 wt % soft monomers is polymerized to produce a first polymer phase and then a monomer composition II comprising 65 to 95 wt % hard monomers and 5 to 35 wt % soft monomers is polymerized to produce a second polymer phase. Monomer composition I also comprises from 1 to 5 wt % of at least one monomer selected from ethylenically unsaturated sulfonic acids, phosphonic acids, phosphoric acids, carboxylic acids, carboxylic amides, carboxylic anhydrides and mixtures thereof and 1 to 7.5 wt % of ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing keto groups. The weight ratio of monomer composition I to monomer composition II ranges from 50:50 to 65:35 and the polymer dispersion also contains a water-soluble cross-linking component selected from polyfunctional carboxylic hydrazides and/or polyfunctional amines.

  • Patent number: 9175185
    Abstract: What are described are coating compositions comprising pigments and/or fillers and multistage polyvinyl ester dispersions as binders. These binders are produced by a selected multistage process in which a polyvinyl ester dispersion is obtained in a first stage, monomers in dissolved or pure form or in the form of an emulsion are added to the reaction mixture in a second stage and then the polymerization is started again. The polyvinyl ester dispersions comprise polymerized silanes and/or epoxides or the polyvinyl ester dispersions have only a small content of protective colloids, if any. The coating compositions formulated with the multistage polyvinyl ester dispersions obtained in this way are notable for a very high weathering resistance.

  • Patent number: 8697665
    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleotide sequences coding for human porphobilinogen deaminase that are optimised for higher expression in mammalian cells. The invention further relates to DNA constructs comprising such optimised synthetic coding sequences for use in gene therapy of conditions caused by a deficiency in porphobilinogen deaminase, such as acute intermittent porphyria. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a nucleic acid or a nucleic acid construct comprising a nucleotide sequence coding for a human porphobilinogen deaminase, wherein at least 320 of the codons coding for the human porphobilinogen deaminase are identical to the codons in SEQ ID NO: 1 or wherein at least 305 of the codons coding for the human porphobilinogen deaminase are identical to the codons in SEQ ID NO: 3.

  • Publication number: 20120027745
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an alanine glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGXT) I340M therapeutic for use as a medicament or in a method of treatment, for example in the treatment of an AGXT-responsive condition. The AGXT I340M therapeutic is an AGXT I340M protein comprising an amino acid sequence, which, when optimally aligned with SEQ ID NO: 2, comprises a methionine at a position corresponding to position 340 in SEQ ID NO: 2, a nucleic acid molecule encoding such an AGXT I340M protein, or a virion of a viral gene therapy vector comprising such a nucleic acid molecule. The AGXT I340M therapeutic has a higher specific activity as compared to other AGXT alleles and may therefore be advantageously used in the treatment of primary hyperoxaluria type I.
