Unsaturated Polyesters For Ultraviolet Curable Coatings

View page
US Patent:
39922766, Nov 16, 1976
Filed:
Mar 17, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/558977
Inventors:
Thomas M. Powanda - Middlesex NJ
Charles B. Rybny - Clifton NJ
Charles A. DeFazio - Berkeley Heights NJ
Assignee:
Celanese Corporation - New York NY
International Classification:
C08F 800
C08L 3312
C08L 6706
US Classification:
20415916
Abstract:
An ultraviolet curable coating composition having improved clarity and resin compatability is prepared by co-reacting an acrylate or methacrylate co-polymer containing hydroxy and carboxy groups with added polyol and maleic anhydride to form an unsaturated polyester, and then blending the unsaturated polyester with polyunsaturated monomers, monounsaturated monomers and a photoinitiator, all of which will cure when exposed to ultraviolet radiation.

Accelerated Preparation Of Carboxylic Acid Esters

View page
US Patent:
48683299, Sep 19, 1989
Filed:
Mar 7, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/168565
Inventors:
Thomas M. Powanda - Middlesex NJ
Robert H. Imes - Bridgewater NJ
George L. Collins - Maplewood NJ
Assignee:
Hoechst Celanese Corp. - Somerville NJ
International Classification:
C07C 6952
US Classification:
560205
Abstract:
The instant invention involves a process for preparing carboxylic acid esters which comprises coreacting a carboxylic acid and an aliphatic mono or polyol by maintaining one of the reactants in a reactor at elevated temperatures and adding the other reactant to the reactor over a period of time. By employing this process esterification times are significantly reduced.

Dispersion Polymerization Process Using Hydroxyalkyl Acrylate As Protective Colloids

View page
US Patent:
39577112, May 18, 1976
Filed:
Dec 20, 1974
Appl. No.:
5/534941
Inventors:
Thomas M. Powanda - Middlesex NJ
Ralph F. Patella - So. Plainfield NJ
Edward J. Kuzma - Woodbridge NJ
Assignee:
Celanese Coatings & Specialties Company - Louisville KY
International Classification:
C08F 220
US Classification:
260 296RW
Abstract:
Aqueous dispersions of synthetic polymers have been made by polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers in water in the presence of a protective colloid which is a polymer of a hydroxyalkyl acrylate or methacrylate. Such aqueous dispersions are useful in paints, adhesives and textile applications.
