    Abstract: The invention relates to a high shear stable aqueous fluoropolymer coating composition, preferably using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), such as KYNAR® PVDF, suitable for high performance coating applications. The composition is based on a high shear stable fluoropolymer emulsion having small particle size, blended with an acrylic polymer additive. The use of this composition allows high bake PVDF water-base coatings which can be applied on variety of substrates such as metal or ceramic surfaces, and in the impregnation of textiles, glass, carbon or aramid fibers, etc. The dry coating formed from the coating composition of the invention exhibits improved gloss, crack resistance, chemical resistance, hot dirt pick up resistance and other improved properties.

    Abstract: A breaker composition for use in a fracturing fluid comprises water, at least one peroxide (e.g., tert-butyl hydroperoxide), and optionally at least one alcohol (e.g., propylene glycol and/or a butyl alcohol). The peroxide(s) and optional alcohol(s) are present in amounts effective to reduce the viscosity of a fracturing fluid at a temperature of 90-300 F. (the “breaking temperature”), and to prevent rehealing of the fracturing fluid, i.e., to maintain the reduced viscosity for a period of time after the temperature is reduced from the breaking temperature to a temperature below the breaking temperature (e.g., after the temperature is reduced from the breaking temperature to room temperature).

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for measuring a thickness of a coating on an object are provided. Light is directed toward the object at a predetermined location on the object such that a portion of the light interacts with the object. An image having at least two wavelength channels (e.g., color channels) is captured that is produced by the portion of the light interacting with the object. A relative shift is determined between each of the at least two wavelength channels, based on a histogram of each wavelength channel of the at least two wavelength channels. At least one of the thickness or an acceptability of the coating on the object is determined based on the determined relative shift.

    Abstract: A water-borne, urethane and acrylic modified alkyd dispersion, wherein the dispersion is substantially surfactant free and has less than 1 weight % volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is described. Additionally, a method for preparing a water-borne, substantially surfactant free, urethane and acrylic modified alkyd dispersion, with less than 1 weight % VOC, is described. In the method, an acrylic modified alkyd polymer is reacted with a basic compound in water to form an acrylic modified alkyd dispersion having a first viscosity and then a hydrophobic seed is added thereto to form a urethane and acrylic modified alkyd dispersion having a second viscosity, which is substantially less than the first viscosity.

    Abstract: Novel fluorosilicon nitrile compounds, and methods of preparing them, are described. The fluorosilicon nitrile compounds are characterized by having a total of four substituents attached to a silicon atom, wherein one or two of the substituents are fluorine atoms, one or two of the substituents are cyanoalkyl groups, which are the same as or different from each other, and the remainder of the substituents, if any, are alkyl groups, which are the same as or different from each other.
