Abstract:
The present invention has its object to provide a curable composition which comprises a guanidine compound as a non-organotin type catalyst, is less discolored, has good surface curability, depth curability, strength rise and adhesiveness, and can retain the curability even after storage; the above object can be achieved by a curable composition which comprises: (A) an organic polymer containing a silyl group capable of crosslinking under siloxane bond formation, the silyl group being a group represented by the general formula (1): —SiX3 (1) (wherein X represents a hydroxyl group or a hydrolyzable group and the three X groups may be mutually the same or different), (B) a guanidine compound (B-1) as a silanol condensation catalyst, and (C) a plasticizer, wherein the content of the component (B-1) is not lower than 0.1 part by weight but lower than 8 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the component (A), and a non-phthalate ester plasticizer accounts for 80 to 100% by weight of the (C) component plasticizer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the discovery that pre-treating mineral oxide particles with a silylated polymeric coupling agent prior to suspending the particles in a binder polymer increases the crack resistance and adhesion of particles to a inkjet printing substrate such as paper sheets. Such pretreatment also reduces the amount of binder needed to achieve acceptable performance, leading to improvements in production speed and image quality.

Abstract:
A method and a coating on a tampon applicator. The coating includes a crosslinked hydrogel that includes a copolymer including water soluble base polymers having graft polymerized thereto organic moieties that react with water to form a silanol group. The copolymer is crosslinked through the silanol groups of the organic moieties to form a coating that is absorbent, lubricious and substantially non-water soluble.
