Abstract: Carbon dioxide and VOC sorbents that include a porous support impregnated with an amine compound are provided. The sorbents include a gas-adsorbing material coated onto the porous support. The gas-adsorbing material includes a polyamine which is produced using a process that is free of formaldehyde as a reaction product and/or a reactant.

Abstract: Disclosed in certain embodiments are carbon dioxide and VOC sorbents that include a porous support impregnated with an amine compound.

Abstract: Disclosed are electret materials with outstanding thermal and charge stability. The electret materials comprise a melt blend of a thermoplastic polymer and one or more compounds selected from the aromatic trisamides. The aromatic trisamides are for example of the formula The melt blends are subjected to an electret treatment, for example a corona treatment.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a process for stabilizing polyolefin compositions against the deleterious effects of melt processing, heat aging and exposure to combustion products of natural gas, which process comprises incorporating or applying to a polyolefin an effective stabilizing amount of a tris-(mono-alkyl)phenyl phosphite ester of the formula I, or a mixture of phosphite esters of formula I, where each R is the same or different and is straight or branched chain alkyl of from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and where said phosphite ester or phosphite ester mixture is in the liquid state at 25° C. and 1 atm of pressure. Also disclosed is a stabilized composition comprising polyolefin and a present phosphite ester or phosphite ester mixture as well as certain mixtures of tris-(mono-alkyl)phenyl phosphite. The present liquid phosphite ester stabilizers are especially compatible with low density polyethylene.

Abstract: This invention pertains to a novel process for preparing sterically hindered N-substituted alkyloxyamines from alkenes by the transition-metal-catalyzed reaction of a intermediate alkylborane with a sterically hindered nitroxyl radical.

Abstract: Sterically hindered N-substituted aryloxyamines are prepared by the transition-metal-catalyzed decomposition of diazonium salts in the presence of a sterically hindered nitroxyl radical. These compounds are useful as thermal and light stabilizers for a variety of organic substrates.
