  • Metathesis polymerization adhesives and coatings
    Patent number: 6872792
    Abstract: An adhesive or coating composition prepared by mixing together at least one metathesizable highly-reactive cycloolefin (e.g., a norbornadiene) and a metathesis catalyst. The use of highly-reactive cycloolefins can provide exceptional adherence to a low-surface-tension substrate. Another embodiment is a two-part adhesive or coating system wherein the first part includes at least one first metathesizable material, and the second part includes at least one liquid metathesis oligomer or polymer and a metathesis catalyst.

  • Internally blocked organoborate initiators and adhesives therefrom
    Patent number: 6841635
    Abstract: Disclosed are internally blocked borates useful for polymerizable compositions, and polymerizable adhesives made therewith. The internally blocked borates have general structures: wherein X represents —CHR6—, oxygen or sulfur; n is an integer; R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are independently selected, for example, from unsubstituted and substituted C1-C10 alkyl, alkylene groups, or aryl groups, including other embodiments further defined, and M is a counter ion with positive charge m.

  • Internally coordinated organoboranes
    Publication number: 20040242817
    Abstract: Disclosed are internally coordinated organoboranes as 5, 6, or 7-membered rings formed from an unsaturated amine, amidine, or guanidine and dialkylhydroborane under hydroboration conditions, as well as two-part adhesive or coating kits containing radical polymerizable material and the internally coordinated organoborane.
