Abstract:
The present invention discloses polythiol compositions containing sulfur-containing compounds with carbamate groups, and to methods for producing such polythiol compositions. These polythiol compositions can be synthesized via the reaction of an isocyanate with an allyl ether alcohol, followed by thiolation with H2S, and these polythiol compositions are often used in formulations for adhesives, paints, and coatings.
Abstract:
A chain transfer agent composition comprises at least one branched C 10 mercaptan selected from 5-methyl-1-mercapto-nonane, 3-propyl-1-mercapto-heptane, 4-ethyl-1-mercapto-octane, 2-butyl-1-mercapto-hexane, 5-methyl-2-mercapto-nonane, 3-propyl-2-mercapto-heptane, 4-ethyl-2-mercapto-octane, 5-methyl-5-mercapto-nonane, or combinations thereof. The chain transfer agent composition can be a component of an emulsion polymerization mixture and can be used in a process for emulsion polymerization for the production of polymers, for example, via free-radical polymerization.

Abstract:
A process includes periodically or continuously introducing an olefin monomer and periodically or continuously introducing a catalyst system or catalyst system components into a reaction mixture within a reaction system, oligomerizing the olefin monomer within the reaction mixture to form an oligomer product, and periodically or continuously discharging a reaction system effluent comprising the oligomer product from the reaction system. The reaction system includes a total reaction mixture volume and a heat exchanged portion of the reaction system comprising a heat exchanged reaction mixture volume and a total heat exchanged surface area providing indirect contact between the reaction mixture and a heat exchange medium. A ratio of the total heat exchanged surface area to the total reaction mixture volume within the reaction system is in a range from 0.75 in -1 to 5 in -1 , and an oligomer product discharge rate from the reaction system is between 1.0 (lb)(hr -1 )(gal -1 ) to 6.0 (lb)(hr -1 )(gal -1 ).
Abstract:
Methods for controlling properties of a conjugated diene monovinylarene block copolymer using a modifier during polymerization are disclosed. For instance, the Shore A hardness of the copolymer can be decreased via the addition of the modifier compound.
Abstract:
Processes of forming oligomers are described herein. The processes generally include contacting an olefin and a catalyst system to form an oligomerization product at oligomerization conditions, wherein a reaction system effluent includes components selected from the oligomerization product, a chromium containing compound and combinations thereof; and contacting the chromium containing compound with a beta-diketone at conditions capable of changing an oxidation state of chromium.
