  • Publication number: 20230114977
    Abstract: Disclosed are silane functionalized rosins having multiple functionalities. Such silane functionalized rosins are curable and thus capable of providing unexpected properties for various uses and end products. Also disclosed are synthetic routes to prepare silane functionalized rosins, which are formulated with hydroxyl functional polymers to provide curable adhesive compositions. The adhesives may be used for woodworking, automotive, textile, appliances, electronics, bookbinding, and packaging. Suitable substrates can be metal, polymer film, plastics, wood, glass, ceramic, paper, and concrete.

  • Patent number: 11236217
    Abstract: Modified thermoplastic hydrocarbon thermoplastic resins are provided, as well as methods of their manufacture and uses thereof in rubber compositions. The modified thermoplastic resins are modified by decreasing the relative quantity of the dimer, trimer, tetramer, and pentamer oligomers as compared to the corresponding unmodified thermoplastic resin polymers, resulting in a product that exhibits a greater shift in the glass transition temperature of the elastomer(s) used in tire formulations. This translates to better viscoelastic predictors of tire tread performance, such as wet grip and rolling resistance. The modified thermoplastic resins impart remarkable properties on various rubber compositions, such as tires, belts, hoses, brakes, and the like. Automobile tires incorporating the modified thermoplastic resins are shown to possess excellent results in balancing the properties of rolling resistance, tire wear, snow performance, and wet braking performance.
