Abstract: This invention relates to cross-linkable film-forming compositions which contain a polymer with pendant isocyano groups and a trialkylborane cross-linking agent and to the use of the compositions in ambient temperature-cure finishes.

Abstract: A reinforced acrylic fiber and the method for making the same wherein a diamine selected from the group consisting of ethylene diamine, piperazine, and hexamethylene diamine is reacted with a diisocyanate selected from the group consisting of: ##STR1## in the presence of a spinning dope made up of dimethylacetamide containing 10 to 30 weight percent of acrylic polymer dissolved therein. This reaction forms a polyurea which is present in discrete particles in the spinning dope. The spinning dope containing the polyurea is extruded to form fibers which have good hot-wet properties.

Abstract: Polymers of anionically polymerized monomers such as mono-olefins, conjugated dienes, vinyl substituted aromatics, vinyl substituted pyridine, vinyl substituted quinolines, various aldehydes, various epoxides, various oxetanes, various oxygen-containing compounds, and the like are produced and end capped with a polyisocyanate or polyisothiocyanate having the formula R--N.dbd.C.dbd.X).sub.n wherein R is a hydrocarbon, n is 2 or 3, and X is oxygen or sulfur. Such end capped polymers, of course, contain one reacted or connected isocyanate or isothiocyanate group and at least one free isocyanate or isothiocyanate end group, which free end group(s) reacts with an amide to give an imide end group. The imide terminated polymer is then hydrolyzed to form a stable amine terminated polymer. The reaction of the amide compound with the isocyanate(s) or isothiocyanate(s), followed by hydrolysis, results in the replacement of the free isocyanate or isothiocyanate end group(s) with an amine group(s).
