摘要:
This invention relates to an improved process for producing a vinyl alcohol containing polymer having a narrow particle size without substantial reactor fouling. The process for producing the vinyl alcohol containing polymer involves hydrolyzing a vinyl ester containing polymer, e.g., a polymer containing polymerized vinyl alkanoate units in the presence of an alcoholic medium and a hydrolysis catalyst in the presence of an alcoholic medium having finely divided, inert material such as an alkali metal carbonate dispersed therein. The finely divided inert material acts as nucleating sites for the polyvinyl alcohol as it precipitates from the solution during hydrolysis.
摘要:
Blends of polymers of vinyl acetate and polymers derived from acrylic acid have been discovered which exhibit thermodynamic miscibility. These polymer blends exhibit excellent mechanical compatibility, provide enhanced toughness and strength superior to the sum of the weight averaged properties of the constituent polymers and are useful in molding structures such as films and in compounded formulations such as coatings, emulsions and adhesives.

A composition includes at least one hydrophilic polymer containing primary (—NH2) and/or secondary (—NHR) amine groups and at least one saccharide containing a reducible function. A method of increasing the strength of paper includes the step of contacting the paper with a composition comprising (i) at least one hydrophilic polymer containing at least two groups which are independently the same or different a primary amine group or a secondary amine group and at least one saccharide containing a reducible function. A hydrogel composition is formed from a mixture of at least one hydrophilic polymer containing at least two groups which are independently the same or different a primary amine group or a secondary amine group and at least one saccharide containing a reducible function.
摘要:
An aqueous composition includes a blend of: a) an aqueous dispersion of an N-methylol-containing vinyl acetate ethylene or vinyl acetate polymer, stabilized by polyvinyl alcohol and optionally also by a surfactant, wherein N-methylol-containing monomer units constitute from 0.025 to 0.4 wt % of the polymer; and b) an acid. The invention provides a method of increasing the wet strength of a fibrous nonwoven substrate, including applying to the substrate the above aqueous composition, followed by a drying step. A fibrous nonwoven article is thereby provided.
摘要:
N-(4-alkylphenyl)acrylamides, N-(4-alkylphenyl)methacrylamides and N-(4-alkylphenyl)maleimides, when co-polymerized into conventional polymer systems promote adhesion of such systems to low energy polyolefin surfaces. These compounds are effective in increasing the adhesive coating properties of both solution polymer and emulsion polymer systems.

A crepe process includes applying an adhesive composition to a nonwoven web, drying, and creping the nonwoven web on a creping drum. The improvement includes using an adhesive composition that includes an aqueous copolymer dispersion obtained by emulsion polymerization of a monomer mixture including 65 to 94.5% by weight of vinyl acetate, 5 to 30% by weight of ethylene, (meth)acrylamide, and 0.1 to 4% by weight of an N-methylol functional monomer. The N-methylol functional monomer constitutes from 25 to 85% by weight of the combined amounts of acrylamide and N-methylol functional monomer, which combined amounts constitute from 0.5 to 5% by weight of the monomer mixture. The emulsion polymerization is performed in the presence of 1 to 10% by weight of polyvinyl alcohol, based on the total weight of all monomers used for the polymerization. The adhesive composition does not include alkylphenol ethoxylates, phosphate ester surfactants, or sodium laureth sulfate.

This invention is directed to a method of preserving polymer emulsions against biodeteriogenic microbe attack and spoilage by combining with the polymer emulsions selected cationic compounds and an ethylenediamine acid compound. The polymer emulsions contain surfactants and/or anionic constituents. It is also directed to polymer emulsion compositions, that are resistant to spoilage by biodeteriogenic microbes, containing surfactants and/or anionic constituents, an ethylenediamine acid compound, and cationic compounds.

This invention is directed to an improvement in nonwoven products comprised of a nonwoven web of fibers bonded together with polymeric binder comprised of emulsion polymerized units of vinyl acetate, ethylene, and a crosslinking monomer. The polymer is stabilized with a surfactant having a critical micelle concentration of about 0.5 to 3% by weight. The surfactant is employed in the polymerization in an amount less than 1% by weight, based upon the total weight of polymer.
