  • Patent number: 4548996
    Abstract: Crystallizable hot melt adhesive compositions comprising block copolyesteramides and alkali metal carboxylates. The block copolyesteramides comprise hard or crystalline polyester blocks and soft or amorphous polyamide blocks in the weight ratio of 2:3 to 4:1. The alkali metal carboxylates provide a concentration of alkali metal cation in the range of 0.1 to 6 meq per 100 parts by weight of copolyesteramide. The hot melt adhesive compositions are useful for bonding plastic parts to form plastic structures which are relatively free of bond line distortion.

  • Patent number: 4354007
    Abstract: Polymers are rendered more oxidatively stable by reaction with an antioxidant or stabilizer, generally a vinyl-group- or thiol group-containing antioxidant, in the presence of a free radical which may be produced by a redox system or ultra-violet light. The resulting polymers can be used as such or can be used as additives in other polymers to stabilize the latter.

  • Patent number: 4277525
    Abstract: Liquid compositions suitable for providing silica-based coating films on to various substrate surfaces are prepared by the reaction of an alkoxy-containing silane, a lower carboxylic acid and an alcohol in the presence of a reaction accelerator which is an organic acid different from the above mentioned lower carboxylic acid. The reaction proceeds very smoothly even in the absence of any halogen-containing compounds, and the resultant liquid coating compositions are free from the problem of corrosion due to the presence of a halogen-containing ingredient.
