Patents by Inventor Jeremy Cheek

Jeremy Cheek 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: 10927272
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides latex compositions manufactured using a combination of reactive surfactants. The compositions are useful as road marking materials.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 6, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 23, 2021
    Inventors: Jiali Cai, Haibo Li, Kevin Newell, Jeremy Cheek, Robert W. Greer
  • Patent number: 10717800
    Abstract: The latex polymer compositions of the present invention exhibit latent crosslinking properties. Latent crosslinking in the polymers takes advantage of the fast interaction between the anionic latex charge and the cationic charge associated with polyfunctional amine crosslinkers. Once the latex is coated onto a substrate, the volatile base evaporates and the groups react to form a crosslinked coating with improved wash-off properties.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10450475
    Abstract: Disclosed are aqueous coating compositions containing an anionically stabilized polymer, one or more polyfunctional amines acting as crosslinking agents, and a volatile base. Coating compositions can further include one or more additional copolymers, which may or may not be anionically stabilized, and/or additional additives, including pigments, defoamers, pigment dispersing agents, thickeners, surfactants, and combinations thereof. By incorporating one or more polyfunctional amines, such as those comprising recurring units derived from the reaction of one tri-glycidyl moiety and a single di-, or tri-functional amino monomer, or a combination of mono/bi, mono/tri, mono/tetra, bi/bi, bi/tri, bi/tetra, tri/tri, tri/tetra, and tetra/tetra functional amino monomers with a bi- or tri-glycidyl moiety, water wash-off resistance of the coating compositions which comprise paint formulations, can be increased.
