摘要:
The present invention yields a coagent-mediated, grafted copolymer prepared from a free radical-mediated reaction of a mixture containing or made from (a) a first free-radical reactive organic polymer, (b) a second free-radical reactive organic polymer, and (c) a coagent selected from the group consisting of allyl, vinyl, and acrylate coagents, wherein the first and second organic polymers are chemically dissimilar polymers as determined by at least one physical property yet the organic polymers have similar reactivity in radical-mediated additions to the coagent.
摘要:
The present invention is a free-radical carbon-FRTS-carbon crosslinkable polymeric composition. The resulting carbon-FRTS-carbon crosslinked polymer is prepared from at least one polymer which upon forming free radicals preferentially degrades or carbon-carbon crosslinks. The present invention permits suppression of the preferential reaction while permitting the polymer to be carbon-FRTS-carbon crosslinked through a free-radical trapping species. Suppressing the undesirable degradation or carbon-carbon crosslinking reaction and permitting the desirable carbon-FRTS-carbon crosslinking reaction yield a uniquely crosslinked polymer.

Polyolefin compositions that expand freely to form stable foams are disclosed. The compositions include at least one heat-activated expanding agent and typically include at least one heat-expanded crosslinker. The compositions are effective as sealers and noise/vibration insulation in automotive applications.
摘要:
The present invention is a rheology-modifiable polymeric composition or a free-radical crosslinkable polymeric composition, wherein the resulting rheologymodifying bond or crosslinking bond is a thermally-reversible bond. The resulting polymer is prepared from at least one polymer which upon forming free radicals preferentially degrades or carbon-carbon crosslinks. The present invention permits suppression of the preferential reaction while permitting the polymer to be coupled or crosslinked through a thermally-reversible bond. Suppressing the undesirable degradation or carbon-carbon crosslinking reaction and permitting the desirable reaction yield a rheology-modified polymer or a free-radical thermally-reversibly crosslinked polymer.

摘要:
An open-cell polystyrene foam is provided which is formed from a blend of polystyrene and an ethylene-styrene interpolymer. The ethylene-styrene interpolymer functions as a cell opening agent, and is used to control the open cell content of the resulting foam, which may contain greater than 80 percent open cells. The foam is produced by an extrusion process in which carbon dioxide is used as the preferred blowing agent. The resulting foams may be formed into beads, plank, round, sheets, etc.

The present invention is an improved free-radical crosslinking process and free-radical crosslinking polymer compositions. The improved process delivers hotter processing conditions, faster crosslinking, or increased crosslinked densities. The crosslinkable polymeric composition comprises (1) a free-radical crosslinkable polymer, (2) a free-radical inducing species, and (3) a crosslinking-temperature-profile modifier.
摘要:
The present invention is a polymeric composition comprising a polymer, a cathodic corrosion inhibitor, and an acidic corrosive reagent. The polymeric composition may further comprise a blowing agent and/or a second corrosion inhibitor. The present invention specifically also includes moisture-crosslinkable polymeric compositions. The moisture-crosslinkable compositions can be used as a coating and applied over a wire or a cable.
