Abstract: A low viscosity copolymer polyahl dispersion is prepared by polymerizing polymer particles in a polyahl medium, to a first solids concentration and thereafter diluting the dispersion to a second lower solids concentration. The resulting diluted dispersion has a lower viscosity than if the dispersion were prepared directly at the lower solids level. The invention has particular advantage when used with "all acrylonitrile" dispersions. The copolymer polyahl dispersions are useful in the manufacture of urethane and isocyanurate foams.

Abstract: Filament reinforced phenolic resin products are provided which comprise a plurality of filaments and a cured, normally liquid phenolic resin interspersed around the filaments. The filaments can be in the form of continuous fibers, roving, woven roving, cloth and mat. The products are useful in structural applications. Also disclosed are novel glycol-modified resole phenolic resins and oligomeric polyol-modified resole phenolic resins.
Abstract: A new class of polymer/polyols based on the condensation polymerization of an oxalate ester and a diamine directly in a polyether polyol. The resultant polyoxamate/polyols have viscosities ranging from 1,500 to 15,000 cps. These polyoxamate/polyols are useful in the preparation of urethane elastomers and high resilience foams.
Abstract: A polyol gel is made from 15-62 wt. % (based on the sum of polyurethane matrix plus dispersing agent) of a high molecular weight covalently cross-linked polyurethane matrix; 85-38 wt. % (based on the sum of polyurethane matrix plus dispersing agent) of a liquid dispersing agent which is firmly bonded to the matrix; and optionally, active ingredients, fillers, additives, catalysts, and mixtures thereof. The liquid dispersing agent is a polyhydroxyl compound having a molecular weight of between 1,000 and 12,000 and an OH number between 20 and 112. This dispersing agent should have virtually no hydroxyl compounds having a molecular weight below 800 present. These gel compositions may be used to make mold impressions and highly stable active-ingredient releasing compositions.
Abstract: A stable copolymer dispersion is prepared by addition copolymerization of (1) an adduct of an active hydrogen compound, e.g., a polyether polyol, and an active ethylenically unsaturated isocyanate, e. g., 2-isocyanatoethyl methacrylate with (2) ethylenically unsaturated monomers(s), e.g., styrene or mixture thereof with acrylonitrile, while (1) and (2) are dispersed or dissolved in an excess of an active hydrogen polyfunctional compound. The resulting dispersion has a controlled particle size and a viscosity such that it is suitably employed in the production of polyurethane foams.

Abstract: A polymer-modified polyol is formed by polymerizing an olamine, particularly an alkanolamine, with an organic polyisocyanate in the presence of a polyol. The alkanolamine reacts polyfunctionally with the polyisocyanate to produce polyaddition products.The polyaddition products may constitute a stable dispersion in the polyol and the resulting polymer-modified polyol is particularly useful as a polyol starting material for reaction with a polyisocyanate in the manufacture of polyurethane foam.
Abstract: A sizing composition and method of preparing sized glass fiber strand is provided to produce sized glass fiber strand that has reduced tackiness. The sizing composition has a low molecular weight liquid polymer selected from the group consisting of styrene-butadiene copolymer, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer or hydroxy or carboxy derivatives of said copolymers, epoxy resins, polyester resins, or polyurethane resins that are free radically curable; and a free radical precurser selected from the group consisting of peroxides, hydroperoxides in an amount in the range of about 0.2 to 5 parts per hundred parts of liquid polymer in said sizing composition; or the said liquid polymer that can be treated with radiation to produce an equivalent amount of free radicals.
Abstract: Polytetrafluoroethylene dispersions obtained from dispersion polymerization which have high solids content and small polytetrafluoroethylene particles are obtained by employing a combination of disuccinic acid peroxide and an inorganic persulfate, and a combination of an anionic and a hydrocarbon dispersing agent, precharged to the polymerization mixture, and by adding a combination of disuccinic acid peroxide and an anionic dispersing agent during the course of the polymerization.
Abstract: Novel polymer/polyisocyanate compositions made by polymerizing at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer in situ in a blend of a first organic polyisocyanate and a stabilizer. The stabilizer comprises a polyoxyalkylene polyol having a number average molecular weight of at least 4000; an isocyanato terminated prepolymer formed by reacting the polyoxyalkylene polyol and a second organic polyisocyanate with the proviso that the isocyanato terminated prepolymer and the first organic polyisocyanate provide greater than 25 equivalents of isocyanato groups per equivalent of hydroxyl groups; a polymer/polyol formed using the polyoxyalkylene polyol; a polymer/prepolymer formed using the polyoxyalkylene polyol with the proviso indicated for the prepolymer above; or a modified polyol containing an ester group formed using the polyoxyalkylene polyol.

C. higher than the glass transition temperature of the polymer to be formed, in the presence of a compound which is soluble in the aqueous medium and contains in the molecule a polymeric component of molecular weight at least 1000 which is solvatable by the aqueous medium and an unsaturated grouping which can copolymerize with the monomers, the conditions being such that there is at no time present a separate monomer phase. The dispersions are useful as a basis of improved coating compositions.
