  • Amido-organoborate initiator systems
    Patent number: 7816562
    Abstract: The invention is amido-borate compounds containing one or more anionic amido-borate moieties comprising an organoborate anion wherein the boron atom is bonded to a nitrogen atom of ammonia or an organic compound containing one or more nitrogen atoms, such as a hydrocarbyl amine, a hydrocarbyl polyamine, or an aromatic heterocycle containing one or more nitrogen atoms, and a cationic counter ion.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 6, 2006
    Date of Patent: October 19, 2010
    Assignee: Dow Global Technologies Inc.
    Inventors: Shaoguang Feng, Gary L. Jialanella, Peter Nickias, Toni Ristoski
  • Amido-organoborate initiator systems
    Patent number: 7737241
    Abstract: The invention is a system for initiating free radical polymerization comprising: a) in one part, one or more amido-borate compounds containing one or more anionic amido-borate moieties comprising an organoborate wherein the boron atom is bonded to a nitrogen atom of ammonia or an organic compound containing one or more nitrogen atoms, such as a hydrocarbyl amine, a hydrocarbyl polyamine, or an aromatic heterocycle containing one or more nitrogen atoms and optionally containing one or more heteroatoms or heteroatom containing functional moieties, and one or more cationic counter ions and b) in a second part, a liberating compound which reacts with the nitrogen atom(s) bound to the boron atom(s) upon contact with the amido-borate to form an organoborane radical.
