Abstract:
Improved methods for preparing sulfonated block polymers with acyl sulfates in non-halogenated aliphatic solvents are provided. The methods include the sulfonation of a precursor block polymer with an acyl sulfate in a reaction mixture further comprising at least one non-halogenated aliphatic solvent to form a sulfonated block polymer, wherein the initial concentration of the precursor block polymer is in the range of from about 0.1 wt % to a concentration that is below the limiting concentration of the precursor block polymer based on the total weight of the reaction mixture. A sulfonation degree of greater than about 1.0 milliequivalent sulfonic acid per gram sulfonated block polymer can be achieved substantially free of polymer precipitation and free of disabling gelation.

Abstract:
An economical and environmentally friendly method for producing waxes. In particular, the methods use thermolytic degradation concurrently with a distillation process to obtaining distilled waxes from recycled polyethylene. The resulting waxes have desirable properties, such as reduced molecular weight and narrow polydispersity, that makes the waxes useful in various applications.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to am aqueous epoxy resin composition, and to an aqueous epoxy resin composition which is able to contain a large amount of water because it uses an epoxy resin and a coagulant and thereby allows an emulsifier and water to be stably adsorbed and captured on tangled particle surfaces of the coagulant. The aqueous epoxy resin composition according to the present invention comprises a highly compatible formulation producing a good cross-linking bond in a curing reaction with a curing agent and hence it can effect functions including those of a coating agent, a primer agent, a mortar agent and an adhesive agent in a two-part formulation, and it entails a formulation using absolutely no volatile organic compounds in large amounts as is the case with prior-art epoxy resin composition and hence it is environment-friendly and can also markedly reduce production costs.
