Abstract:
Polyurethanes are made by reacting, in one or more reaction steps, a) at least one organic polyisocyanate, b-1) one or more polyols having a hydroxyl equivalent weight of greater than 250 g/mol and a nominal hydroxyl functionality of 2 to 4 and b-2) at least one alkoxylated Mannich base to produce a polyurethane polymer having a density of at least 750 kg/m3 and a hard segment content of 20 to 80% by weight.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards hybrid foam formulations that include: an isocyanate-reactive composition, and a high-functionality crosslinker; an azo type radical initiator; and an isocyanate.
Abstract:
An asymmetric hollow fiber (CMS) carbon molecular sieve is made by providing a dope solution comprised of a polvimide and a solvent, at a temperature greater than 250° C. that is less than the storage modulus at a temperature of 250° C., but no more than ten times less as measured using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis from 250° C. to a temperature where the polyimide carbonizes. The polvimide is shaped into a hollow polvimide fiber, the solvent removed and the polyimide hollow fiber is heated to pyroiyze the polvimide and form the asymmetric hollow carbon molecular sieve. The asymmetric hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve has a wall that is defined by an inner surface and outer surface of said fiber and the wall has an inner porous support region extending from the inner surface to an outer raicroporous separation region that extends from the inner porous support region to the outer surface. Surprisingly, when the polyimide has the particular storage modulus characteristics, the method allows for the hollow fiber CMS to be made without any pre-treatmenis or additives to inhibit stractural collapse of the inner microporous region.
Abstract:
A solvent consisting essentially of: (A) a first component consisting of N,N-diethylacetamide (DEAC); (B) a second component consisting of 3-methoxy-N, N-dimethyl propionamide (M3DMPA); and (C) an optional third component consisting of one or more glycol ethers or glycol ether acetates; or a solvent consisting essentially of: (1) a first component consisting of one or more acyclic amides of Formula (I): and (2) an optional second component consisting of one or more of DEAC, M3DMPA, N,N-dimethylpropionamide, one or more glycol ethers or glycol ether acetates, and one or more cyclic amides of Formulae (II-IV).
Abstract:
A wireless-communications-tower component being at least partially formed from a polymer composite. The polymer composite comprises a thermoplastic polymer and a filler, where the thermoplastic polymer is non-foamed. The polymer composite has a thermal conductivity of at least 0.5 watt per meter Kelvin (“W/m?K”) measured at 25 C. Such wireless-communications-tower components include radio frequency (“RF”) cavity filters, heat sinks, enclosures, and combinations thereof.
Abstract:
A water-insoluble copolymer including an epoxide containing structural unit represented by Formula (I), wherein: the epoxide containing group is positioned meta, ortho or para on the ring relative to the bond linkage with the polymer backbone; L is an optional linking group; and R1, R2 and R3 are independently selected from: hydrogen, or a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbyl group.
Abstract:
The invention relates to functionalized interpolymers derived from base olefin interpolymers, which are prepared by polymerizing one or more monomers or mixtures of monomers, such as ethylene and one or more comonomers, to form an interpolymer products having unique physical properties. The functionalized olefin interpolymers contain two or more differing regions or segments (blocks), resulting in unique processing and physical properties.
