Abstract: The invention relates to a one-component formulation for detackifying, precipitating and coagulating anti-chipping coatings and underseal based on waxes, wax-like plastics and plastics dispersions and also synthic resin paints in wet paint mist separators of paint-spraying installations, using an additive which envelops the paint particles, which formulation comprises, as the additive, an aqueous polyurethane suspension which produces a paint sludge floating on the surface of the water.The invention also relates to the use of the above one-component formulation for detackifying, precipitating and coagulating synthetic resin paints and anti-chipping coatings and underseal based on waxes, wax-like plastics and plastics dispersions and also synthetic resin paints in wet separators of paint-spraying installations, a floating paint sludge being obtained.

Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive having non-ghosting characteristic comprising a latex of polymers having pendent oxazoline groups, coreactive groups and a tackifier. The latex comprises discrete polymer particles having both pendent oxazoline and coreactive groups or a blend of discrete polymer particles one portion of which has pendent oxazoline groups and the other portion of which has pendent coreactive groups. The oxazoline group is preferably 2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline and the coreactive group is a carboxyl, sulfonic acid, anhydride, phenolic, hydroxyl, amide or amine group.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an adhesive composition which contains specific amounts of (A) an aqueous emulsion, (B) a filler and (C) a resin solution of a resinous tackifier dissolved in a solvent and/or plasticizer. The adhesive composition has a fast setting time in adhesion strength and excellent water-proofness and hence produces superb adhesion force even when applied to a fresh mortar base which has been aged insufficiently.

Abstract: Printed materials such as tickets, lottery forms, cards and contest forms, bearing a hidden message which is revealable by scratching off a covering opaque layer, are prepared by printing the message on the substrate, lithographing a protective layer such as a clear varnish or a pigmented varnish-ink over the hidden message, and then lithographing a hiding coat over the applied protective layer. The protective layer formulation and the hiding coat layer are both based upon compatible, preferably the same, film forming resin systems, and are deposited from a common solvent. The protective layer may provide a clear, colorless transparent film through which the message may be viewed, or a colored see-through layer, so that it constitutes one color layer also for the printing of other areas of the substrate.

Abstract: A two-part adhesive which comprises(i) as the main ingredient an emulsion consisting essentially of (a) an aqueous emulsion of a polymer or copolymer obtained from an essential monomer of an adduct of a tertiary amino group-containing acrylic or methacrylic acid ester and an epihalohydrin, (b) a tackifier resin selected from the group consisting of a petroleum hydrocarbon resin, a phenolic resin, a terpene resin, a rosin resin, a coumarone resin, and a coumarone-indene resin, and (c) an epoxy compound containing two or more epoxy groups in the molecule; and(ii) a curing agent selected from a primary or secondary amino group-containing compound. The adhesive is particularly useful for preparing automobile interior decorations, such as inside trims (e.g. doors, pillars), instrument panels, formed ceiling, and console box.

Abstract: There is disclosed the use of esters especially methyl esters of rosin acids as total or partial replacements for oil in rubber formulations. Vulcanizate properties, low temperature performance, and processibility are comparable when using either the rosin ester or an aromatic oil, however, the rosin ester extended rubber demonstrates improved abrasion resistance and flex resistance.

Abstract: There is disclosed the use of decarboxylated rosins as total or partial replacements for oil in rubber formulations. Vulcanizate properties, low temperature performance, and processibility are comparable when using either the decarboxylated rosins or an aromatic extending oil, however, the decarboxylated rosin extended rubber demonstrates improved abrasion resistance.
