Abstract:
Aqueous coating compositions as well as methods of using thereof are described. The coating compositions can be a two-part aqueous coating composition. The first coating component can comprise one or more polymers and the second coating component can comprise a catalyst such as phosphoric acid. The first coating component and the second coating component can be provided as separate aqueous compositions. The first coating component and a second coating component that can be co-applied (e.g., simultaneously or sequentially) to a surface form a rapid set coating.
Abstract:
Filtration system comprising at least one membrane, wherein at least one component or at least one part of a component of the filtration system has been obtained by a process comprising the following steps: A) treatment of a said component or part of a component with at least one organoborane-amine complex, B) treatment of a said component or part of a component with a composition comprising at least one radically polymerizable compound, C) optional treatment with a deblocking agent.
Abstract:
Described herein are methods of making a composition, the method comprising polymerizing monomers comprising a hydrophobic monomer in the presence of a solid grade oligomer, thereby forming a (co)polymer derived from the hydrophobic monomer, wherein the (co)polymer is derived from 5% by weight to 100% by weight of the hydrophobic monomer based on the total monomer weight. The hydrophobic monomer has a solubility in water of 0.2 g/100 g or less as measured at 20° C. The hydrophobic monomer comprises a substituted or unsubstituted C10-C22 alkyl (meth)acrylate, a substituted or unsubstituted C8-C20 alkenyl (meth)acrylate, a substituted or unsubstituted C5-C12 cycloalkyl (meth)acrylate, or a combination thereof. In some examples, the hydrophobic monomer can comprise lauryl (meth)acrylate, stearyl (meth)acrylate, heptadecyl (meth)acrylate, linoleyl (meth)acrylate, behenyl acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, isodecyl (meth)acrylate), nonyl (meth)acrylate, tridecyl (meth)acrylate, pentadecyl (meth)acrylate, 3-methylbut-2-enyl methacrylate, 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienyl (meth)acrylate, or a combination thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aqueous dispersion comprising a water-insoluble pesticide and polymer particles, wherein the polymer particles comprise a copolymerizable surfactant in polymerized form; to a method of preparing the aqueous dispersion; a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi and/or undesired plant growth and/or undesired insect or mite attack and/or for regulating the growth of plants; and seed containing said aqueous dispersion.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aqueous suspoemulsion comprising a first pesticide, which is dissolved in a water-immiscible solvent, a second pesticide, which is suspended in continuous aqueous phase, and a polymer in form of polymer particles, where the polymer comprises methyl (meth)acrylate and C2-C12 alkyl (meth)acrylate in polymerized form. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of said suspoemulsion by contacting water, the first pesticide, the second pesticide, the water-immiscible solvent and the polymer particles. Further subject matter are a method of controlling phytopathogenic fungi and/or undesired plant growth and/or undesired insect or mite attack and/or for regulating the growth of plants, wherein the suspoemulsion is allowed to act on the respective pests, their environment or the crop plants to be protected from the respective pest, on the soil and/or on undesired plants and/or on the crop plants and/or on their environment; and seed containing said suspoemulsion.
