Abstract: This invention provides novel carbon black composition comprising of at least 5 one first carbon black, filler1, with iodine number in the range of about 25 to 160 mg/g, nitrogen surface area (NSA) in the range of 20 m2/g to 150 m2/g, with at least one second carbon black, filler 2, preferably, with iodine number in the range of 160 mg/g to 300 mg/g, nitrogen surface area (NSA) in the range of 160 m2/g to 300 m2/g oil absorption number (OAN) in the range of 50 10 ml/100 g to 120 ml/100 g, having synergistically enhanced distribution of width of aggregate size ?D50 and elastomer compounds of natural rubber or synthetic rubbers or their predefined mixtures comprising said novel carbon black composition with improved properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, cut growth etc. along with improvement of the aesthetic 15 and colour properties of the elastomer compounds, such as, L* value etc.

Abstract: Moldable sheet materials include a first layer including a first polyester, a second layer including a second polyester, and, optionally, a third layer including a third polyester. The first polyester, the second polyester, and the third polyester are the same as or different from each other of the first polyester, the second polyester, and the third polyester. The sheet materials exclude one or more of adhesives, ethylene vinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylidene chloride, polyamides, polyolefins, polystyrenes, and the like. Molded packages made from the sheet materials exhibit desirable oxygen and water vapor barrier properties while also being suitable for recycling in a polyethylene terephthalate recycle stream.

Abstract: Acrylic polyols comprising hydroxy functional acrylic copolymers/resin involving an acrylic backbone having modified castor oil sourced hydroxyl functionalities and synthesized by co-reacting modified hydroxy functional Castor Oil with variety of acrylic monomers, styrene or its derivatives and optionally hydroxyalkyl acrylates/methacrylates and ethylenic monomer through solution polymerization in presence of an initiator. The hydroxyl functionality is solely or partially imparted through renewable Castor Oil wherein the resins were synthesized at upto 100% solids and at hydroxyl values ranging from 25-150 (mg KOH/gm). The synthesized resins when cured with suitable polyisocyanates or amino resin cross-linkers provided tough, glossy and chemical & weather resistant coatings.
