Abstract: The present invention is an article of manufacture comprising a substrate having a binder composition applied thereon.

Abstract: Stable aqueous coemulsions of oxidized polyethylene with amino functional silicone fluids which includes at least one constituent selected from the group consisting of; ethoxylated aliphatic amines, ethoxylated nonylphenols, ethoxylated primary alcohols, ethoxylated secondary alcohols or other nonionic emulsifiers are taught, as well as processes for making the same. The coemulsions may also comprise further constituents, including but not limited to fatty acids, ammonium hydroxide, salts and water. The coemulsions find use in conjunction with textile processing and paper processing.

Abstract: The present invention is an article of manufacture comprising a substrate having a binder composition applied thereon. The binder applied to the substrate comprising a polymeric backbone comprising recurring monomeric units derived from monomers selected from the group consisting of one or more .alpha.-olefins and one or more unsaturated carboxylic acids, said backbone having grafted thereto, by a divalent amide linkage, one or more polymeric grafts comprising at least one recurring monomeric unit derived from monomers selected from the group consisting of:--NHC(O)RC(O)NHR.sub.1 and --NH--R--C(O)--or a combination thereof, wherein R is an alkylene group of at least about 2 carbon atoms, and R.sub.1 is R or aryl. The present invention also includes a process for preparing the article of manufacture.
