Abstract:
A curable aqueous binder composition comprising one or more amine reactant selected from the group consisting of: a protein, a peptide, an amino acid, an ammonium salt of a polycarboxylic acid, an ammonium salt of a (poly)hydroxy-(poly)carboxylic acid; one or more carbohydrate; and one or more emulsion polymer; and the use thereof as thermosetting binders. Also described are composite materials comprising the curable binder composition, and methods of application.
Abstract:
A water-dispersed coating composition comprising an amino resin, and a dispersion of latex polymer particles comprising from 0.1 to 2 weight percent of a multi-ethylenically unsaturated monomer and from 0.1 to 2 weight percent of (meth)acrylamide.
Abstract:
The present invention provides composite materials that contain formaldehyde-free aqueous binder compositions comprising defatted soy flour of no greater than 43 micron mesh particle size and polymer particles of at least one emulsion (co)polymer. Preferably, the defatted soy flour is present as an aqueous dispersion, or is in denatured form. Also provided are methods of making and using composite materials containing the formaldehyde-free binder compositions.
Abstract:
The present invention provides composite materials derived from formaldehyde-free aqueous binder compositions comprising defatted soy flour of no greater than 43 micron mesh particle size, polymer particles of at least one emulsion (co)polymer, and one or more reducing sugar. Also provided are methods of making and using composite materials containing the formaldehyde-free binder compositions.
Abstract:
A stable aqueous soy flour slurry comprising defatted soy flour, water, and a water soluble polymer dispersing agent having a molecular weight in the range of from 1,000 to 20,000, wherein the viscosity of the slurry is in the range from 200 to 2,000 cps as measured by a DV-III Ultra LV Viscometer viscometer at 6 rpm using spindle #31 at 25° C.; and a method for providing such a slurry.
Abstract:
A coating composition including a polyaniline particle and a binder is provided. The polyaniline particle contains a core polymer particle with strong acid groups and an attached polyaniline polymer, and has a particle diameter in a select range. Coatings prepared from the coating composition may be employed to provide corrosion resistance to metal substrates. A process for preparing the polyaniline particle and an article including a coating prepared from the coating composition are also provided.
Abstract:
Polymer compositions which are useful in floor polish compositions as wax replacements are disclosed. The compositions provide improved repair properties in floor polishes and provide a non-slippery floor polish.
