| 20090292058 | Aqueous Polymer Compositions Exhibiting Increased Open Time With Reduced Levels Of Volatile Organic Compounds - In addition to acting as effective plasticizers, certain acid, carboxylate and hydroxyl-functional liquid polyesters that are liquid at 25° C. can be used as at least partial replacements for the more volatile organic compounds conventionally used as coalescents and/or property enhancers in aqueous film-forming compositions. The resultant compositions exhibit reduced VOC values relative to prior art compositions exhibiting comparable levels of application and coating properties. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20090142981 | Novel Compositions Comprising Structural Isomers Of 1,4-Cyclohexanedimethanol Dibenzoate and Polymer Compositions Containing Same - Novel solid benzoate ester compositions are mixtures comprising the trans- and cis-structural isomers of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol dibenzoate wherein the trans isomer constitutes from 1 to 66 or from 72 to 99 weight percent of the mixture. The properties imparted to a variety of polymer compositions, including hot melt adhesives, cannot be achieved using the commercially available mixture of these isomers. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090075106 | Mixed Aryl/Alkyl Diester Compositions - Novel ester compositions are prepared by reacting 1) at least one diol, glycol or oligomeric glycol with 2) a mixture of at least one aromatic monocarboxylic acid and at least one aliphatic monocarboxylic acid containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms. The compositions are effective plasticizers for a variety of polymers, particularly those employed in water-borne adhesives. The freezing point of the present ester mixtures and their efficacy as plasticizers and other types of additives and/or modifiers for a variety of polymer compositions can be varied by adjusting the relative concentrations of the aromatic and aliphatic acids used to prepare the ester composition. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090036581 | Novel High Viscosity Liquid Benzoate Ester Compositions And Polymer Compositions Containing Said Ester Compositions - Ester compositions based on blends of the mono- and dibenzoates of 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol and containing a minimum of 87 weight percent of the dibenzoate are novel and exhibit viscosities that are unexpectedly high relative to the benzoates of other mono- and polyfunctional alcohols. These viscosities are not exhibited at lower concentrations of the dibenzoate. | 02-05-2009 |
