Abstract:
The present disclosure provides an ionically crosslinkable composition comprising a (meth)acrylate copolymer component having pendant acid functional groups and pendant photobase functional groups. On exposure to light, the pendant photobase group photolyzes to provide a pendant amine group, that ionically crosslinks the copolymer.
Abstract:
A photoactive compound that is the Michael addition reaction product of an aziridine compound and a photoinitiator-functional (meth)acrylate is described. The compound can be used to crosslink (meth)acrylic polymers via a hydrogen abstracting or an alpha-cleavage mechanism.
Abstract:
An adhesive composition comprising an emulsion polymer which comprises a (meth)acrylate copolymer, and aziridinyl silane and an optional silica particle component is described. The addition of the aziridinyl silane results in a significant increase in the shear properties, particularly at elevated temperatures.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides addition-fragmentation oligomers of the general formula: The crosslinking oligomers of this disclosure provide stress relief by including labile crosslinks that can cleave and reform during the polymerization process.
Abstract:
A pre-adhesive composition is described comprising an acid-functional (meth)acryloyl copolymer and epoxy resin, which when crosslinked with or without using an ionic photoacid generator (PAG) provides a (e.g. pressure-sensitive) adhesive.
Abstract:
Addition-fragmentation agents having the following functional groups: 1) a labile addition-fragmentation group that can cleave and reform to relieve strain, 2) at least one high refractive index group, and 3) at least one ethylenically unsaturated, polymerizable group are described.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method of providing an adhesive composition comprising the steps of combining crosslinkable composition including: a) a (meth)acryloyl monomer mixture with the b) photocrosslinking agent mixture, and irradiating with UVC radiation to polymerize and crosslink the composition.
Abstract:
Dental compositions comprising an addition-fragmentation agent having the formula: wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently Z m -Q-, a (hetero)alkyl group or a (hetero)aryl group with the proviso that at least two of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is Z m -Q-; Q is a linking group have a valence of m +1; Z is an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable group; m is 1 to 6; each X 1 is independently -O- or -NR 4 -, where R 4 is H or C 1 -C 4 alkyl; and n is 0 or 1; at least one multifunctional monomer comprising at least two ethylenically unsaturated group; optionally an inorganic filler; and a redox initiator system; and the use thereof are described.
