Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for hotmelt application of a thermosetting formulation, which comprises a binder composition containing a resin and a crosslinker that form volatile compounds upon reaction with each other whereby the thermosetting formulation is converted into a hotmelt and stored in a hotmelt unit, wherein the release of a substantial amount of volatile component from the hotmelt unit is prevented during the storage of the hotmelt in the hotmelt unit. The invention also relates to the use in a hotmelt of a binder composition comprising a resin and a crosslinker, that form volatile components upon reaction.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a powder paint binder composition which contains a compound comprising carboxylic acid units, a compound comprising hydroxyalkyl amide units and as catalyst phosphinic acid, a (C1-C26) alkylphosphinic acid, a C6-C20) arylphosphinic acid or an ester or an anhydride derived from one of these acids. Highly suitable as catalyst for this reaction are phosphinic acid, phenylphosphinic acid and diylphosphine ester acid.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a heat curable paint binder composition containing a compound comprising hydroxyl amide groups. In a first step a compound comprising hydroxyalkyl amide units and carboxylic acid units is obtained by reacting a cyclic anhydride and an alkanolamine in a mixing device and in a second step the binder composition is obtained by mixing the compound and a polymer in a second mixing device.
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a novel, simplified method for preparing solid surfaces coated with water-soluble activated polyhydroxypolymers. The method entails contacting a solid surface which contains substantially no amino, imino, or thiol groups with a coating solution comprising an activated polyhydroxypolymer so as to obtain bonding of the activated polyhydroxypolymer to the solid surface, followed by rinsing and optionally drying of the solid surface. The contacting reaction must take place in an aqueous medium having a pH between 1.5 and 10 and or an ion strength between 0.1 and 8. Preferred polyhydroxypolymers are naturally occurring, aldehyde group-free polymers such as polysaccharides, especially dextran, but also cellulose, agarose and starch. Also synthetic polymers, especially polyvinylalcohol are preferred. The water solubility of the polymer is preferably at least 10 mg/ml and its molecular weight is preferably at least 1,000. The activation of the polymer is preferably with functional groups selected from tresyl, maleimido, cyanogenbromide, tosyl, triflyl, pentafluorobenzenesulfonyl and vinylsulphone groups. Especially preferred activated polyhydroxypolymers are tresylated, tosylated, or maleimido activated dextran. The solid surface is preferably that of an organic polymer (such as polysterene) or of glass, a ceramic or a metal. Also provided is the solid surfaces obtainable by the process as well as of the use of the surfaces in the immobilisation of biomolecules.

Abstract:
A polymer having an antibacterial activity and heat-treatability or thermoformability is produced by melt kneading a mixture of a heat-fusible thermoplastic copolymer having repeating units derived from an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or anhydride thereof with silver oxide. When applied to the inside of a packaging material, the polymer can exhibit an antibacterial effect upon the contents without detriment to the flavor retentivity thereof.
Abstract:
A new method is provided to impart a hydrophilic lubricious coating onto articles such as medical devices. A device, for example a catheter, is first contacted with a polyisocyanate solution, to provide coupling, then contacted with a poly(carboxylic acid) solution to give a coating, and is then finally oven dried. These coatings have lubricity that only becomes manifest upon exposure to water or body fluids, and moreover, are also long lasting and have good abrasion resistance. This combination of properties is not available from other currently used or proposed coatings such as Teflon.
