  • Patent number: 8303705
    Abstract: This invention relates to cyanoacrylate compositions that include, in addition to the cyanoacrylate component, a compound embraced by structure A: where D is independently a member selected from O or S, and A is independently a member selected from hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic alkyl groups having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms, alkenyl groups having from 2 to about 20 carbon atoms, alkynyl groups having from 2 to about 20 carbon atoms, and aryl groups having from 6 to about 20 carbon atoms, with or without interruption or substitution by a member selected from halogen, silicon, hydroxy, ester, and sulfate, provided that at least one A is not H and that at least one A has at least one carboxyl group attached thereto.

  • Patent number: 6583289
    Abstract: The present invention provides a new class of materials effective as curatives for anaerobic adhesive compositions. The addition of these materials into anaerobic adhesives as a replacement for conventional curatives, such as APH, surprisingly provides at least comparable cure speeds and physical properties for the reaction products formed therefrom.

  • Patent number: 6552140
    Abstract: An air-activatable polymerisable composition useful, in the field of adhesives, sealants, surface coatings, moulding resins and composite matrices, comprises: a) at least one free-radically polymerisable monomer, b) an activator system for effective polymerisation of the free-radically polymerisable monomer, said activator system comprising at least one auto-oxidisable compound which is a beta diketone, c) a soluble ionic salt, particularly a transition metal salt, d) and a weak acid or a latent weak acid, with the proviso that the composition does not contain a peroxide, or a peroxide precursor which produces peroxide in the absence of air, or any ingredient which is a significant source of radicals in the absence of air.

  • Patent number: 6423172
    Abstract: The present invention provides a variety of interrelated methods of coating non-random and ordered arrays of particles, as well as films containing such arrays. The present invention also relates to the coated non-random and ordered arrays of particles and films prepared therefrom. The coated non-random and ordered arrays are obtained by the use of ferrofluid compositions which may be curable. The arrays and films may contain electrically-conductive particles useful in electronic applications for effecting contact between conductors.
