  • Chlorinated ethylene-based polymers and compositions and articles prepared therefrom
    Patent number: 8163846
    Abstract: The invention provides a chlorinated ethylene-based polymer, process for preparing the same, and compositions and articles prepared from the same. The chlorinated ethylene-based polymer has a low residual crystallinity, for example, less than 8 percent, a relatively high crystallization temperature, Tc, for example greater than, or equal to, 25° C., and a medium weight average molecular weight, Mw, for example, less than, or equal to, 325,000 g/mole.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 27, 2007
    Date of Patent: April 24, 2012
    Assignee: Dow Global Technologies LLC
    Inventors: Gregory E. Johnson, Maarten Aarts, Mark T. Berard

  • HALOGEN-FREE, FLAME-RETARDANT WIRE-AND-CABLE COMPOSITION AND RELATED ARTICLES
    Publication number: 20090131568
    Abstract: This invention relates to a flame-retardant composition useful for preparing a coated automotive wire with high scrape abrasion resistance and flexibility. The present invention is a halogen-free, flame-retardant composition made from or containing an ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer, a halogen-free inorganic flame retardant, a coupling agent for coupling the inorganic flame retardant to the copolymer, and a processing aid.
