Abstract: A polymeric composition includes a resin including an ethylene-based polymer and a copolymer of ethylene and an alpha olefin comonomer. The resin has a High Mw Comonomer Content of 3.2 wt % or greater based on a total weight of the resin over the weight average molecular weight range of 105 g/mol to 105.5 g/mol as measured by Ethylene GPC. The polymeric composition has a Relevant Comonomer Content of 0.6 wt % or greater. The polymeric composition also includes at least one of (i) a polydimethylsiloxane having a weight average molecular weight of 550,000 g/mol to 650,000 g/mol as measured according to Component GPC and (ii) a polymeric ultraviolet light stabilizer comprising a hindered amine moiety and having a weight average molecular weight from 5,000 g/mol to 20,000 g/mol as measured according to Component GPC.

Abstract: The present invention provides a dry mix composition of a low-viscosity cellulose ether (50 to 750 mPa·s at 1 wt. % solids, at 20 C, and a 514 s-1 shear rate, using a strain-controlled rotational rheometer (for example, ARES-G2™, TA Instruments), a graded aggregate, and a hydraulic cement, or a granular wet cement composition of the cement, graded aggregate and an admixture therefor including the cellulose ether. The wet granular hydraulic cement composition behaves like asphalt compositions and has zero or near zero slump, a high lubricity and from 5 wt. % to less than 13 wt. % of water, or, preferably from greater than 5 to 10.5 wt. %, based on the total weight of the granular wet cement composition. The low-viscosity cellulose ether enables lubricity without impairing compaction and without causing air entrainment.

Abstract: A continuous process for producing a polyurea concentrate or powder. The process includes combing at least one amine and an isocayante in the presence of a liquid diluent or a base oil in a rotor stator mixer. The concentrate comprises a polyurea in a base oil wherein the concentration of from about 20 weight percent to about 50, or 40 or 35 or 30 weight percent of polyurea based on total weight of grease thickener. The powder has particle size of 2 to 400 microns. This concentrate or powder can then be formulated by grease manufacturers to the desired final properties without the need for handling of the isocyanate and amine raw materials.
