Abstract: A method of forming an aqueous emulsion laminating adhesive having an extended pot life is disclosed in which monoethylenically unsaturated monomers are polymerized to form a copolymer having a glass transition temperature in the range of about -10.degree. C. to about -50.degree. C. The polymerization is carried out in aqueous emulsion in the presence of emulsified epoxy resin in an amount of from about 2% to about 60%, based on the weight of the monomers which are copolymerized. An aqueous emulsion of amine-functional resin is then mixed into aqueous emulsion containing copolymer and epoxy resin formed by the aqueous emulsion copolymerization to provide a weight ratio of amino hydrogen atoms to oxirane groups of from about 0.1 to about 1.0.

Abstract: Compounds with a plurality of oxirane functional groups can be cured to a fixture in less than one minute with a catalyst composition of a trityl or tropylium salt of a non-nucleophillic anion and a suitable solvent. Typical catalyst salts include trityl tetrafluoroborate, trityl hexachloroantimonate and tropylium hexafluorophosphate. The catalyst composition may conveniently be extended with liquid polymeric vehicles and acidic fillers.

Abstract: A profound improvement in the properties and capabilities of elastomeric polyurethane joint sealing compositions is achieved by incorporating a fibrillated polyolefin of high surface area which is rendered compatible by combining it with effective stabilizing cofillers, such as titanium dioxide, calcium carbonate, carbon black, fibrous talc, serpentine, kaolin, or various other metal silicate fillers. Such cofillers are capable of improving compatibility and stabilizing the sealant mixture so that unacceptable sweat out or exudation of liquid is prevented and so that the outer surface of the applied sealant has an acceptable surface quality after curing.
