Abstract:
Low-density compositions and sealants prepared from sulfur-containing prepolymer compositions that exhibit enhanced fuel resistance are disclosed. The low density and enhanced fuel resistance is realized by using polyphenylene sulfide fillers.
Abstract:
Disclosed are adhesion promoting adducts containing adhesion promoting groups and metal ligands and compositions such as sealant compositions useful in aerospace applications comprising the adhesion promoting adducts. The adhesion promoting adducts are useful as adhesion promoting additives or as a copolymerizable reactant in polymer compositions.
Abstract:
Bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers, compositions containing bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers, methods of synthesizing bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers and the use of bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers in aerospace sealant applications are disclosed. The bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers have bis(sulfonyl)alkanol groups incorporated into the backbone of the polythioether. Cured sealant compositions comprising the bis(sulfonyl)alkanol-containing polythioethers exhibit enhanced properties suitable for aerospace sealant applications.
Abstract:
Dislcosed are poilythioethers that are the reaction product of reactants that include: a) an isocyanurate-containing trithiol; b) a polythiol different from (a); and c) a diene. Also disclosed are compositions, such as sealant compositions, that include such polythioethers.
Abstract:
Disclosed are thioethers, methods for preparing such thioethers, and curable compositions, such as coating and sealant compositions, that include such thioethers. The thioethers can be the reaction product of (a) an alpha, omega dihalo organic compound, (b) a metal hydrosulfide and (c) a metal hydroxide.
Abstract:
Sulfur-containing polymer adducts such as polythioethers, polysulfides, and sulfur- containing polyformals having terminal maleimide groups, and in particular, sulfur-containing polymers and sulfur containing adducts having terminal 1,1'-(methylenedi-4,1 - phenylene)bismaleimide groups are disclosed. The adducts provide cured sealants having improved tensile strength and elongation and are useful as aerospace sealants.
