  • Low misting laminating adhesives
    Patent number: 8933188
    Abstract: The tendency of a two component laminating adhesive based on polyurethane chemistry to form a mist of fine droplets when applied at a high line speed may be reduced by including both a high functionality polyol and a lower functionality polymeric polyol in Component B which is combined and reacted with an isocyanate-functionalized polyurethane prepolymer in Component A.

  • Laminating adhesives based on triglyceride-derived polyols
    Patent number: 8382937
    Abstract: Natural oils, fats and other fatty acid triglycerides are transesterified with polyalcohols such as trimethylolpropane or glycerol to yield polyhydroxyl-functionalized reaction products which are useful materials in the formulation of two component laminating adhesives.

  • Vibration damping resins and vibration damping composites
    Patent number: 5356715
    Abstract: Viscoelastic resins useful for forming vibration damping composites, i.e., metal layers adhered by the resins, contain only the elements hydrogen, oxygen and carbon and provide vibration damping over a wide temperature range. The resins are generally linear, high molecular weight polymers having blocks of epoxy and either polyester or polyether.
