  • Laminated structures comprising films of silane crosslinked acrylate interpolymers having water barrier properties
    Patent number: 4062451
    Abstract: Polymeric compositions having desirable film-forming characteristics and water-barrier properties at substantially neutral pH's and yet solubilizable and thus disposable at substantially non-neutral pH's comprise a silane crosslinked interpolymer of an alkyl acrylate and a monomer interpolymerizable therewith such as, in the preferred alkaline labile embodiment, acrylic acid. The silane crosslinking monomer is preferably 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl methacrylate or 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl acrylate. The resultant pH-sensitive polymeric compositions in film form, are laminated to other dispersible materials to produce a variety of products which are completely disposable at selected non-neutral pH's.

  • Non-woven fabrics bonded with pH sensitive film-forming silane crosslinked acrylate interpolymers
    Patent number: 4035540
    Abstract: A pH-sensitive polymeric composition is used as a binder for other materials, such as webs of non-woven water-dispersible fibers, to produce products which are completely disposable at selected non-neutral pH's. The polymeric composition, which has film-forming characteristics and water-barrier properties at substantially neutral pH's and yet is solubilizable and thus disposable at substantially non-neutral pH's, comprises a silane crosslinked interpolymer of an alkyl acrylate and a monomer interpolymerizable therewith such as, in the preferred alkaline labile embodiment, acrylic acid. The silane crosslinking monomer is preferably 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl methacrylate or 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl acrylate.

  • Film-forming silane crosslinked acrylate interpolymers having water-barrier properties
    Patent number: 3951893
    Abstract: Polymeric compositions having desirable film-forming characteristics and water-barrier properties at substantially neutral pH's and yet solubilizable and thus disposable at substantially non-neutral pH's comprise a silane crosslinked interpolymer of an alkyl acrylate and a monomer interpolymerizable therewith such as, in the preferred alkaline labile embodiment, acrylic acid. The silane crosslinking monomer is preferably 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl methacrylate or 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyl acrylate. The resultant pH-sensitive polymeric composition may be used, for example, as a binder for other materials, such as webs of non-woven water-dispersible fibers, or may be used in film form either by itself or preferably laminated to other dispersible materials to produce a variety of products which are completely disposable at selected non-neutral pH's.
