Abstract: This invention is directed to a polyurethane product produced by a one step process, in the absence of a polymerization catalyst, with reactants, and additives, if any, being initially intermingled in the ambient room temperature range and reacted with intermingling in the absence of externally added heat. The reactants are (1) aliphatic, aromatic, or cycloaliphatic having at least two isocyanate groups and (2) diol/polyol compounds having at least two sterically unhindered hydroxyl groups. The product is a liquid, homogeneous adhesive material characterized by a natural absence of polymerization catalyst residue and capable of being cured because of the presence of unreacted isocyanate groups, the isocyanate reactant being charged in excess of the stoichiometric requirement of the diol/polyol reactant.

Abstract: Compositions having internal mold-release properties comprise a molding polymer and an oxidation stable polyoxyalkylene lubricant compound used alone or in combination with other polyoxyalkylene compounds.

Abstract: Disclosed is a coating composition rapidly curable at room temperature in presence of a vaporous tertiary amine catalyst and possessing a flexibility sufficient for a zero-T bend on metal and a mar resistance of at least about 2,000 grams as borne by the edge of a nickel passed on said film. The coating composition is a phenolic-terminated-polyester and multi-isocyanate curing agent (at least about 10% aromatic isocyanate content) dispersed in a fugitive organic solvent, and a mar-resisting aid of an organic compound physically incompatible in said coating composition and having an effective chain length of at least about 12 carbon atoms. Application of the coating composition preferably is on a flexible substrate such as a thermoplastic substrate.

Abstract: A vinylidene chloride copolymer composition manufactured by the addition of a grease copolymer, such as low molecular weight ethylene-vinyl-acetate copolymer, in place of or in combination with conventional plasticizer blend additions.

Abstract: An alkali metal hydroxide, sulfur, a polyfunctional amine and an oxidated silicon compound are mixed, then heated to just above the melting temperature of sulfur while agitating for 10 to 30 minutes, thereby producing an alkali metal amine polysulfide silicate reaction product; then it is added to an aqueous solution containing an emulsifying or dispersing agent and is reacted with a polysubstituted organic compound, thereby producing a poly(amine polysulfide silicate) resinous product which may be used to cure epoxy resins.

Abstract: A method of coating an automotive part with a room temperature vulcanizable silicone rubber composition comprising applying to the automotive part a thin layer of a composition comprising a silanol end-stopped polysiloxane polymer, an alkyl silicate as the cross-linking agent and as the catalyst a metal salt of a carboxylic acid. The automotive part can be a tail pipe resonator or a muffler. Such composition, which is a two-component or two package room-temperature vulcanizable silicone rubber composition can also be used to coat the underside of a car to protect it from corrosion.

Abstract: A storable flowable polypropylene ether urethane composition having relatively long shelf life at room temperature, readily curing at elevated temperatures to a solid composition and providing a more economic and lower viscosity flowable storable composition useful as gel coats and adhesives.
