Patent number: 4336363Abstract: Heat curable compositions are provided comprising cationically polymerizable organic materials such as epoxy resins, vinyl ethers or phenol formaldehyde resins and thermal curing agents, based on the use of certain aryl sulfonium salts with an organic oxidant, such as an organic peroxide, azonitriles, etc. The heat curable compositions can be used as injection molding compounds or as a coating composition.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 1980Date of Patent: June 22, 1982Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventor: James V. Crivello

Patent number: 4331582Abstract: A catalyst for forming ambient temperature stable diamino-diphenyl sulfone-epoxy composition comprises the half-salt of a strong aromatic sulfonic acid such as toluene sulfonic acid and an imidazole, preferably an alkylated imidazole such as 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole. The composition fully cures at moderate temperature to form a humidity resistant resin having a high heat distortion temperature and can be impregnated onto reinforcing fibers such as graphite to form composites.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 1980Date of Patent: May 25, 1982Assignee: HitcoInventor: Eduard P. Babayan

Patent number: 4326047Abstract: Polyether hydroxyl-containing compounds are prepared by reacting a monoepoxy-containing compound such as propylene oxide with a compound containing one or more OH and/or SH groups such as a low molecular weight adduct of glycerine and propylene oxide in the presence of a solid calcium naphthenate catalyst. The solid form of the catalyst is more efficient than the liquid form.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 1980Date of Patent: April 20, 1982Assignee: The Dow Chemical CompanyInventor: Ronald L. Yates

Patent number: 4323660Abstract: Thermosetting compositions comprising: (A) a sulfonic acid ester comprising the reaction product of an epoxy functional polymer bearing hydroxyl functionality, and a sulfonic acid having the formula ##STR1## wherein R is selected from linear or branched alkyl groups and aryl groups; and (B) an amine aldehyde crosslinking agent.During cure of the composition, component (A) breaks down to form not only a reactive sulfonic acid catalyst, but also the hydroxy functional film forming material which crosslinks with the amine aldehyde crosslinking agent.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1980Date of Patent: April 6, 1982Assignee: Ford Motor CompanyInventor: Mohinder S. Chattha

Patent number: 4319974Abstract: UV curable mixtures of C.sub.(8-28) .alpha.-olefin oxides and certain onium salt photoinitiators, for example, certain diaryliodonium salts, or triarylsulfonium salts, and optionally polyfunctional epoxy resin, have been found useful in paper release coating applications.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 1980Date of Patent: March 16, 1982Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventor: James V. Crivello

Patent number: 4316006Abstract: Phosphorus containing polymers are prepared by copolymerizing a cyclic phosphite and an epoxide in the presence of an acid catalyst. The resulting polymer can be incorporated within a thermoplastic or thermosettable resin to increase the flame resistivity thereof.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 1980Date of Patent: February 16, 1982Assignee: The Dow Chemical CompanyInventor: Gerald K.
