Patents by Inventor Kenneth Bourlier

Kenneth Bourlier 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: 5889137
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the formation of phenol alkylation polymers which release negligible phenol and formaldehyde emissions. The phenol aralkylation polymers of the present invention are derived from a phenolic monomer, at least one styrene derivative and an aryl diolefin. In addition to the phenolic monomer, styrene derivative and aryl diolefin, other reactants may be introduced to produce a product with particular properties.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 10, 1997
    Date of Patent: March 30, 1999
    Assignee: Georgia-Pacific Resins, Inc.
    Inventors: David A. Hutchings, Jeffrey L. Mills, Kenneth Bourlier
  • Patent number: 5837798
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the formation of phenol alkylation polymers which release negligible phenol and formaldehyde emissions. The phenol aralkylation polymers of the present invention are derived from a phenolic monomer having at least three free reactive aromatic ring positions, at least one styrene derivative and an aryl diolefin. In addition to the phenolic monomer, styrene derivative and aryl diolefin, other reactants may be introduced to produce a product with particular properties.

  • Patent number: 5770750
    Abstract: Phenolic aralkylation polymers modified by esterification with fatty acids, transesterification with glyceride oils, or other modifications to reactive hydroxyl moieties to improve the characteristics and properties of coating systems in which the modified materials are incorporated. At least a portion of the hydroxyl moieties of the polyol is esterified or otherwise modified. The hydroxyl moieties include those that have been "chain-extended," if desired.
