  • Patent number: 5240979
    Abstract: A surface coating composition and method for applying the same to the inorganic substrates. The composition comprises a moisture-curable aqueous urethane dispersion, a cross-linking agent and an anionic surfactant, wherein the anionic surfactant has a phosphate group substituent. The aqueous urethane dispersion comprises discrete linear aliphatic urethane chains and the several chains are linked together upon curing.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 14, 1992
    Date of Patent: August 31, 1993
    Assignee: Union Carbide Chemicals & Plastics Technology Corporation

  • Patent number: 4535113
    Abstract: Olefin polymer compositions containing silicone additives which can be extruded through relatively narrow die gaps at commercial extrusion rates to provide film material characterized by improved mechanical and optical properties. The silicone additives have the formula: ##STR1## wherein each R, which can be the same or different, are alkyl radicals, R.sup.1 is a monovalent organic radical containing at least one ethyleneoxide group, vicinal epoxy group or amino group and x and y, which can be the same or different, each have a value of at least one.

    Inventors: Paul F. D'Angelo, Richard B. Metzler
  • Patent number: 4201808
    Abstract: Release-coated material is produced by applying to a substrate, e.g. paper, a coating of a radiation curable composition comprising (a) an organopolysiloxane containing an average of at least one acryloxy and/or methacryloxy group per molecule, (b) a low molecular weight polyacrylyl crosslinking agent and, optionally, (c) a photosensitizer; and curing the composition on the substrate by exposing it to ionizing radiation or actinic non-ionizing radiation.
