Abstract:
A sealing composition for use in unit dose packages is provided, including: 70 to 98 wt% water; 1 to 30 wt% of a hydrogen bonding component; and 1 to 30 wt% of a complex forming component.
Abstract:
A free standing film is provide, including: a partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate; a poly(ethylene oxide); a polyalkylene glycol; a plasticizer; optionally, a poly(isobutylene-co-maleic anhydride) copolymer; and optionally an optional additive. Unit dose packages including the free standing film are also provided.
Abstract:
Thermosets are formed by mixing an epoxy resin with a hardener composition that includes a norbornene-based anhydride hardener such as methyl nadic anhydride and a core-shell rubber. The presence of the core-shell rubber unexpectedly reduces the strong odor of that is normally produced in thermosets containing these anhydride hardeners.
Abstract:
A detergent additive comprising an active comprising one or both of tetraacetylethylenediamine, triacetylethylenediamine; and an interpolymer complex, the interpolymer complex comprising both a proton-accepting-(co)polymer and a proton-donating (co)polymer.
Abstract:
An epoxy-functional resin composition including the reaction product of (a) a stoichiometric excess of at least one divinylarene dioxide, and (b) at least one of: a primary (1°) monoamine, a bis-secondary (2°) amine lacking nitrogen atoms, or mixtures thereof; a curable composition including (i) the epoxy-functional resin composition, and (ii) at least one curing agent; and a cured thermoset resin prepared from the curable composition.
Abstract:
A two-component curable epoxy resin system having an epoxy component containing a unique combination of two or more epoxy resins with at least one of the epoxy resins being an epoxy novolac type resin. The composite made from such resin system exhibits high glass transition temperature.
Abstract:
A curable resin composition comprising: a) an epoxy resin; b) an anhydride hardener; c) a polyol; d) a core shell rubber, and (e) a catalyst, is disclosed. When cured, the resin composition can be used to formulate composites, coatings, laminates, and adhesives.
Abstract:
A curable divinylarene dioxide resin composition including (a) at least one divinylarene dioxide, (b) at least one cationic photoinitiator, and (c) optionally, at least one pigment material; a process for making the curable divinylarene dioxide resin composition; and a cured divinylarene dioxide resin composition made therefrom. The cured product made from the above curable divinylarene dioxide resin composition offers improved properties and are useful for various applications including ink formulations.
Abstract:
A process for preparing a divinylarene dioxide including reacting (a) at least one divinylarene; and (b) at least one peracid oxidant compound, under conditions to form a divinylarene dioxide product; wherein the peracid oxidant compound is capable of providing an increased yield of a divinylarene dioxide product.
