Patents by Inventor James Watson Neely

James Watson Neely has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7244784
    Abstract: New aqueous PNP dispersions are disclosed. A method of preparing an aqueous PNP dispersion from solvent-based PNPs having a diameter in the range of from 1 to 50 nanometers is disclosed. An associative thickener composition based on PNPs having an average of at least two phobes extending from the surface of said PNPs is also disclosed. The aqueous PNP dispersions are useful in aqueous-based industrial and consumer products, such as latex paint.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 2, 2003
    Date of Patent: July 17, 2007
    Assignee: Rohm and Haas Company
    Inventors: David Richard Amick, Robert Howard Gore, Dennis Paul Lorah, James Watson Neely
  • Patent number: 6939922
    Abstract: Provided are improved coatings, polymeric dispersions, and polymeric composites, which include crosslinked polymeric nanoparticles (hereafter “PNPs”). Also provided are methods for forming improved coatings, polymeric dispersions, and polymeric composites, which include PNPs. The PNPs have polymerized units of at least one multi-ethylenically-unsaturated monomer have a mean diameter of from 1 to 50 nanometers. PNPs having polymerized units of at least one multi-ethylenically-unsaturated monomer and at least one surface-active monomer are also provided.

  • Patent number: 6337366
    Abstract: A method of improving the viscosity stability of an aqueous composition by the addition to the aqueous composition of a mixture of at least one multiphobe and at least one monophobe is disclosed. The method is particularly useful for stabilizing the viscosity of an aqueous composition containing at least one associative thickener, when surfactants or additives containing surfactants, such as for example colorants, particularly at high levels, are added to the aqueous composition.
