  • Coating and coating composition
    Patent number: 6939922
    Abstract: 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: Grant
    Filed: March 15, 2002
    Date of Patent: September 6, 2005
    Assignee: ROHM and HAAS Company
    Inventors: 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

  • Continuous process for preparing polymers
    Patent number: 6380326
    Abstract: A continuous process for preparing polymers, preferably emulsion polymers, with minimal fouling of the reactor is provided. The process is effected in a reactor which does not contain a gas phase, optionally by reducing the gas content of the reaction mixture.
