Patent number: 6939922Abstract: Provided are improved coatings, polymeric dispersions, and polymeric composites, which include crosslinked polymeric nanoparticles (hereafter “PNPs”). Also provided are methods for forming improved coatings, polymeric dispersions, and polymeric composites, which include PNPs. The PNPs have polymerized units of at least one multi-ethylenically-unsaturated monomer have a mean diameter of from 1 to 50 nanometers. PNPs having polymerized units of at least one multi-ethylenically-unsaturated monomer and at least one surface-active monomer are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2002Date of Patent: September 6, 2005Assignee: ROHM and HAAS CompanyInventors: Ronald Scott Beckley, Robert Mitchell Blankenship, Albert Benner Brown, James Tinney Brown, Shang-Jaw Chiou, Anton Georges El A'mma, Susan Jane Fitzwater, Robert Howard Gore, Eric Jon Langenmayr, Dennis Paul Lorah, Warren Harvey Machleder, James Watson Neely, George Harvey Redlich, Curtis Schwartz, Frederick James Schindler, Robert Victor Slone, David William Whitman, Mark Robert Winkle

Patent number: 6645562Abstract: A method of preparing a curable coating and a method of curing the curable coating are disclosed. The curable composition from which the curable coating is prepared may be applied to the surface of a substrate in neat form or in aqueous medium to produce the coating. Curing of the curable coating may be accomplished by chemical generation of free radicals, by electrochemical generation of free radicals, by electron beam, by photochemical generation of free radicals, or by other electromagnetic irradiation.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2002Date of Patent: November 11, 2003Inventors: Gary David Greenblatt, Ward Thomas Brown, Michael Damian Bowe, Richard Foster Merritt, Ronald Scott Beckley, Barry Clifford Lange, Robert Wilczynski, David William Whitman, Martha Harbaugh Wolfersberger

Patent number: 6590025Abstract: Disclosed are modified latexes having improved drying speed, comprising a polymer having one or more pendant side chains, such side chain comprising the product of the reaction between a mono- or poly-functional group capable of reacting with an acid or hydroxyl unit, and such units present on the precursor polymer. Such modified latexes are storage-stable one-pack compositions useful alone or in combination in coating applications, or as adhesives, sizing agents, composites, impregnants, castings, caulks, and non-woven binders. Also disclosed is a method for providing a crosslinked protective coating on a substrate, comprising the steps of: applying a coating of the composition of the present invention to the substrate; and allowing the composition to cure at ambient temperature or greater, or applying radiation to the composition to effect curing.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 1997Date of Patent: July 8, 2003Assignee: Rohm and Haas CompanyInventors: Virginia Ann Carlson, Ronald Scott Beckley

Publication number: 20020137857Abstract: The invention relates to a curable composition and a process of preparing the curable composition. The process comprises (a) forming an oligomer from oligomerization of a mixture of a monomer A having a functional group and a monomer B at a temperature in the range of from 150° C. to 650° C., a pressure in the range of from 3 MPa to 35 MPa and the pressure is high enough to maintain the reaction mixture in a fluid state and a residence time in the range of from 0.1 second to 4 minutes; and (b) reacting a modifier having at least one reactive moiety with the oligomer through a reaction between the reactive moiety of the modifier and the functional group of the monomer A in the oligomer, and the modifier further comprises a curable group.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 1999Publication date: September 26, 2002Inventors: BARRY CLIFFORD LANGE, MICHAEL DAMIAN BOWE, RICHARD FOSTER MERRITT, ROBERT WILCZYNSKI, WARD THOMAS BROWN, RONALD SCOTT BECKLEY

Patent number: 6451951Abstract: The present invention relates to an oligomer with a semi-telechelic nitrogen-functionality and at least one ethylenic unsaturation pendant to the backbone of the oligomer. In addition, a process is provided to prepare the semi-telechelic nitrogen-functional oligomer. The semi-telechelic nitrogen-functional oligomer is useful as a dispersant for pigments in radiation curable formulations.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2001Date of Patent: September 17, 2002Assignee: Rohm and Haas CompanyInventors: Ronald Scott Beckley, Barry Clifford Lange, David William Whitman, Jo Ann Arceneaux, Michael Christopher Kramer, Peter Thomas Weissman
