Abstract: Oligomers of polyarylene polyethethers (PAPE) having a mol wt Mn in the range from 1000 to about 10,000 are converted to difunctionalized oligomers so as, in the first instance, to provide a reactive double bond (for example, a vinylbenzyl group) at each end of the PAPE; and, in the second instance, to provide a triple bond (benzylethynyl group) at each end of the PAPE. The PAPE most preferably has a repeating unit which is the residuum of two dihydric phenols or thiophenols ("DHP") linked through a C=O, --S--S--, or --SO.sub.2 -group, or a Si or C atom, and or ether O, or thioether S atoms. The preferred repeating unit is formed by reaction of a DHP such as bisphenol A (BPA) with a halogenated DHP such as dichlorophenyl sulfone (DCPS) so as to provide an alternating configuration. The repeating unit may also include a linking residue of a reactive solvent which residue provides chain extension in the backbone.
Abstract: Anhydrous adhesives and sealants based on mercapto terminated polymers and/or oligomers and manganese (IV) oxide as the hardener are thermosetting if they contain only alkaline or neutral fillers and additives. The mixtures can be used for application with heating.

Abstract: Oligomers of polyarylene polyethers (PAPE) having a mol wt Mn in the range from 1000 to about 10,000 are converted to difunctionalized oligomers so as, in the first instance, to provide a reactive double bond (for example, a vinylbenzyl group) at each end of the PAPE; and, in the second instance, to provide a triple bond (benzylethynyl group) at each end of the PAPE. The PAPE most preferably has a repeating unit which is the residuum of two dihydric phenols or thiophenols ("DHP") linked through a C.dbd.O, --S--S--, or --SO.sub.2 -group, or a Si or C atom, and or ether O, or thioether S atoms. The preferred repeating unit is formed by reaction of a DHP such as bisphenol A (BPA) with a halogenated DHP such as dichlorophenyl sulfone (DCPS) so as to provide an alternating configuration.

Abstract: A polysulfide sealing composition is described which contains, in addition to the hardening agents and optional fillers, softeners and other conventional additives, a mixture of a solid polysulfide rubber with terminal SH groups and a liquid polysulfide polymer with terminal SH groups, wherein the weight ratio of the respective solid and liquid polysulfide is 100:5 to 15. The composition may be used for the manufacture of insulating glass units.
Abstract: This invention relates to a heat curing process and to heat activated compositions comprising(1) an ethylenically unsaturated compound containing at least two carbon-to-carbon double bonds and(2) a thiuram.
Abstract: The use of polysulfide rubbers cured with zinc oxide and tetramethylthiuram disulfide and other sulfur containing cure accelerators for polyisoprene rubbers in hot applied processes and articles formed thereby are disclosed. The compositions are useful as hot applied sealants and in the extrusion of hoses and similar rubber articles.
Abstract: Compositions which are stable in the absence of oxygen are formed by mixing the following substantially in the absence of oxygen(A) 100 parts by weight of at least one mercapto-functional organic compound which contains an average of at least two mercapto groups per molecule;(B) 0 to 200 parts by weight of at least one filler;(C) a catalytic amount, preferably from 0.1 to 6 parts by weight, of an iron carbonyl compound selected from the group consisting of Fe(CO).sub.5, Fe.sub.2 (CO).sub.9, Fe.sub.3 (CO).sub.12, dicyclopentadienyldiiron tetracarbonyl, butadieneiron tricarbonyl and cyclohexadieneiron tricarbonyl; and(D) 0.1 to 6 parts by weight of an acid, such as 2-ethylhexanoic acid, which meets a particular set of criteria.The compositions polymerize or cure to form higher molecular weight products at room temperature upon exposure to oxygen. These compositions are especially useful as coatings because they possess a rapid rate of surface cure.
