Abstract: An anaerobically curable composition comprising: a liquid anaerobically curable component; a solid anaerobically curable component; a solid thermoplastic polyurethane resin having a molecular weight in the range of from 40,000 g/mol to 100,000 g/mol and a melting point in the range of from 40° C. to 80° C.; and a curing component for curing the anaerobically curable components. Advantageously, the compositions of the invention are substantially solid and may be used as threadlockers.

Abstract: An anaerobically curable composition comprising (i) a curing system for curing an anaerobically curable component, comprising a combination of a metallocene such as n-butyl ferrocene and acetyl phenyl hydrazine, (ii) the anaerobically curable component comprising: a) a solid resin component and b) a solid anaerobically curable monomer; and wherein the composition is in solid form and has a melting point in the range from 30° C. to 100° C. The metallocene may be present in the amount from about 0.05% to about 2.5% by weight based on the total weight of the composition and the acetyl phenyl hydrazine is present in the amount from about 0.05% to about 1.75% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. Compositions show greater bond strengths.

Abstract: The present invention relates to anaerobically curable compositions made from renewable materials. In particular, an alpha-methylene-lactone is used with a (meth)acrylate component and a cure system to form an anaerobically curable composition.
