Publication number: 20220017779Abstract: The composition includes a polysiloxane having at least one of a phosphate or phosphonate group and an amino-functional compound having at least one silane group. The method includes treating the metal surface with a composition including a polysiloxane functionalized with at least one of a phosphate or phosphonate group. The method can include first treating the metal surface with a primer composition including an amino-functional compound having at least one silane group or including an amino-functional compound having at least one silane group in the composition with the polysiloxane. Certain polysiloxanes functionalized with at least one of a phosphate or phosphonate group are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2019Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Frans A. Audenaert, Wayne W. Fan, Inge Nuyts, Semra Colak Atan, Federica Sgolastra, George W. Griesgraber

Patent number: 8669319Abstract: A polymer is provided comprising a first pendant group selected from at least one of a perfluorinated ether group or a perfluoroalkanesulfonamido group, a second pendant group comprising an ammonium group, wherein the second pendant group is free of silicon, and a third pendant group comprising an ammonium group and a reactive silicon-containing group. A composition comprising the polymer is provided. The polymer and composition are useful for protecting a substrate, for example, to render the substrate oil repellent, water repellent, or both, or to provide stain repellency to the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2012Date of Patent: March 11, 2014Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Rudolf J.
