Patent number: 8268926Abstract: Particle-toughened polymer compositions include a base polymer formulation and a plurality of toughening particles. In certain embodiments, the base polymer formulation includes bismaleimides or other polymer resins capable of high temperature service. A first plurality of toughening particles may include core shell rubbers. A second plurality of toughening particles may be selected from a variety of polymer compositions, including polyimides, polyether ketone (PEK), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyether ketone ketone (PEKK), polyether imide, polyether sulfones, and polyphenylene oxide. It is found that increasing concentration of the core shell rubbers may improve the toughness of the composition while preserving thermal properties of the composition, such as glass transition temperature.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2010Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: Cytec Technology Corp.Inventors: Mark Richard Bonneau, Jack Douglas Boyd, Gordon T. Emmerson, Scott D. Lucas, Stephen J. Howard, Spencer Donald Jacobs

Publication number: 20120184689Abstract: The present invention relates to a stationary phase composition. The composition comprises a support material, on which at least a divinylbenzene group and an acrylic group, and optionally a styrene group, are provided. Preferably, the acrylic group has an alkyl moiety of at least 4 carbon atoms. The composition can serve as a monolithic column for chromatographic separation. The composition exhibits an altered ?-? interaction with aromatic compounds, whereby the peak symmetry of aromatic compounds is improved during separation, the separation time is shortened and the occurrence of peak-overlapping and peak-tailing is prevented.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2011Publication date: July 19, 2012Inventors: Hsi-Ya Huang, Yi-Jie Cheng, Chao-Hsiang Hsu, Wan-Ling Liu, Yi-Fen Hsu, Cheng-Lan Lin, Sze-Tsen Lee
