Abstract: A clear or colorless coating that is free of yellow discoloration, and a method for the production thereof, utilizing a pyrazole compound as a blocking agent for the blocked polyisocyanate employed in the coating composition.

Abstract: The present invention provides a resin which is a mixture of a) the product of a diol and one or more diepoxides and b) an A-B-A block copolymer wherein A represents blocks of an epoxy/diol copolymer which is the reaction product of a diol and a diepoxide, and B represents blocks of an epoxy-capped, carboxyl-terminated polybutadiene or polybutadiene/acrylonitrile copolymer.Amine resins, produced by reaction of this resin with an amine are useful as the principal resin in electrocoating formulations which produce deposited films having excellent corrosion resistance and improved impact and chip resistance.

Abstract: This invention relates to a storage stable, heat reactive, adhesive dispersion composition comprising a solid epoxy resin containing more than one epoxy group and a solid, sterically unhindered, tertiary amine catalyst in a liquid vehicle which is a non-solvent for the solids but in which said solids are at least partially soluble in the melt. Heating said dispersion to a temperature at or above which the solids melt results in a thermoset product usable as an adhesive, sealant or coating.

Abstract: There is provided a process for cationically polymerizing piperylene batchwise or continuously by the addition of piperylene either alone or in admixture with a minor amount of at least another hydrocarbon monomer, incrementally, to a catalyst system consisting essentially of a major amount of an aluminum halide and a minor amount of an inorganic phosphorus acid in an inert solvent while controlling the temperature of reaction in the range of 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C., drowning the polymerization mixture in water, separating the organic phase therefrom, then removing the solvent and recovering a solid polymer in good color and yield, free from an intractable gel, rendering the same useful as a tackifying resin.
