Abstract:
A method for coloring powders is provided that includes mixing a base powder and non-incorporated pigments. A colored powder composition having a base powder particle and at least a partial shell of non-incorporated pigments about the base powder particle is also provided. Articles having a coating of the colored powder composition are also provided.
Abstract:
A thermoplastic polymer advanceable by solid state polymerization is blended with at least one dissimilar thermoplastic polymer. The blend is solid state polymerized to provide a modified polymer alloy blend having at least one physical or chemical property different from that of the blend before solid state polymerization. The modified polymer alloy blend may be coextruded with a layer of thermoplastic extrusion polymer having a melt viscosity similar to that of the modified polymer alloy.
Abstract:
Coating compositions that include one or more epoxy resin compositions, one or more metal-containing compound and one or more curing agents are described. The compositions can be applied to steel substrates, including steel substrates such as steel pipe to resist attack by sour gas. When applied to a substrate and cured, these coating compositions demonstrate reduced permeability to hydrogen sulfide.
Abstract:
A stain composition comprising at least one anti-ticking agent, at least one colorant, and at least one surfactant configured to at least partially suspend the hydrous aluminum silicate in a carrier liquid.
Abstract:
White-pigmented and unpigmented base paints and stains are custom-tinted using an automated colorant dispenser having a minimum fluid dispensing quantity less than 0.01 fluid ounce (
Abstract:
Coating compositions that include a thermoplastic dispersion and an epoxy-functional stabilizer having polyhydric phenols that exhibit estrogenic activity less than bisphenol S.
Abstract:
A multi-coat coating system having an undercoat composition and an overcoat composition, wherein the undercoat, overcoat or both the undercoat and overcoat contain a polymer having segments of a specified formula and are substantially free of polyhydric phenols having estrogenic activity greater than or equal to that of bisphenol S. The coating system is suitable for use on a food-contact surface of food or beverage containers.
Abstract:
A thermally responsive composition includes a dye and a developer that is free of polyhydric phenols having estrogenic agonist activity greater than or equal to that of bisphenol S. The thermally responsive composition can be used to make BPA-free thermally responsive record materials.
Abstract:
A polymer useful in coating compositions is described. The polymer is preferably an unsaturated polyurethane polymer, which preferably has an iodine value of at least 10. The polymer may be combined with one or more liquid carriers to form a liquid coating composition useful in coating a variety of substrates, including planar metal substrates.
Abstract:
A polymer is provided that preferably includes at least one unsaturated cycloaliphatic group. In one embodiment, the polymer is combined with an optional crosslinker and an optional carrier to form a coating composition suitable for use in coating articles such as packaging articles. In one embodiment, the polymer has at least one unsaturated cycloaliphatic group that is at least bicyclic.
