  • Publication number: 20040198875
    Abstract: Organic polymeric substrates, for example polyolefins such as polypropylene, can be made flame retardant by the incorporation of a synergistic mixture of (i.) a sterically hindered amine of the nitroxyl, hydroxylamine, alkoxyamine or hydroxyalkoxyamine class, and (ii.) a fluorinated polyolefin. Advantageously, a further flame retardant may be added, without the need of adding an antimony synergist. The compositions of the invention combine good flame retardant properties with light stability and good mechanical properties.

  • Patent number: 6794433
    Abstract: Compounds and compositions comprising specific metal salts of hexahydrophthalic acid (HHPA) in order to provide highly desirable properties within thermoplastic articles are provided. The inventive HHPA derivatives are useful as nucleating and/or clarifying agents for such thermoplastics, are practical and easy to handle. Such compounds provide excellent crystallization temperatures, stiffness, and acid scavenger compatibility within target polyolefins. Also, such compounds exhibit very low hygroscopicity and therefore excellent shelf stability as powdered or granular formulations. Thermoplastic additive compositions and methods of producing polymers with such compounds are also contemplated within this invention.

  • Patent number: 6653377
    Abstract: An economical and reliable system for the contained transfer of particulates by means of a series of transfer containers facilitates the particulate transfer without either exposure of the operating personnel and the environment to the particulate, or environmental contamination of the particulate itself. The system employs a multiple o-ring canister assembly which can be attached to either the discharging port or charging port of a piece of processing equipment. The canister has a series of circumferential o-ring grooves which allows the attachment of a series of individual transfer containers. In a charging mode, once the particulate is charged to the processing equipment, a first transfer container is collapsed and a second transfer container is placed in the next o-ring groove, thereby containing the remaining contaminated section of the first transfer container. The first transfer container is removed through a bag-out sleeve which is an integral part of the second transfer container.

  • Patent number: 6583250
    Abstract: The bondability of a polyolefin, particularly to cyanoacrylate adhesives, is improved by incorporating in the polyolefin a polymerization initiator capable of initiating the polymerization of the monomers constituting the cyanoacrylate adhesive. The polymerization initiator may, for example, be a sterically hindered nitrogen base and may be mixed with the polyolefin at a temperature above the polyolefin's glass transition temperature using, for example, co-extrusion or co-injection methods.

  • Publication number: 20030092806
    Abstract: The free radical initiated addition polymerisation of ethylenically unsaturated, particularly acrylic monomers in which the dispersed phase is stabilised by a surfactant including at least one anionic surfactant compound of the formula (I): R1—(OA)n—X where R1 is C16 to C22 hydrocarbyl including at least two double bonds; OA is oxyalkylene group; n is from 2 to 60; and X includes at least one acidic H atom, and is particularly a phosphate ester group, or a salt thereof, is described. The use of the surfactants of the formula (I) enable efficient emulsification and thus polymerisation at temperatures above those at which non-ionic unsaturated surfactants are effective. The polymer latex products give polymer films having good water resistance properties.
