Abstract:
A combination of (A) a nitrogen containing water soluble polymer, (B) a water insoluble film forming polymer, and (C) gas filled, polymer walled microballoons provides a superior thermally releasable coating that (i) can be conveniently and reliably coated from a water based solution and dispersion onto surfaces to be protected against painting, (ii) is reliably stable at ambient temperatures, (iii) even after being coated with many times its own thickness of accumulated paint particles, rapidly disintegrates, along with the accumulated paint coating formed on it, upon contact with hot water, into particles of a size that readily escapes from standard paint booth grate structures, (iv) detackifies any paint particles that escape during disintegration of the combined thermally releasable coating and paint residues accumulated thereon, and (v) disintegrates into particles that float on water, so that they can be readily removed from the grates by immersing the latter in hot water, allowing a few minutes for the disintegration to take effect, and then skimming off the floating solids on the surface of the water.
Abstract:
Melamine-formaldehyde resin dispersions containing more free formaldehyde than is desirable for health and/or pollution reasons can be treated with diketo reagents or their nitrogen analogs to reduce the free formaldehyde content while not diminishing, and in some cases even enhancing, the ability of the dispersions to detackify paint. Preferably, the resin dispersions are also treated with urea, which allows considerably less acetoacetamide to be used to achieve the same amount of formaldehyde reduction.
Abstract:
An improved aqueous liquid composition for power washing of paint masks contains: organic film-forming polymer, preferably polyacrylamide; inorganic salts, preferably a combination of alkali metal pyrophosphate, metaborate, and tetraborate; and dissolved organic molecules that (i) are hydrocarbons except for having hydroxyl substituents and, optionally, having one or more other types of substituents selected from halogen atoms, keto groups, and aldehydo groups and (ii) have a number ratio of oxygen atoms to carbon atoms that is at least 0.5; and, optionally but preferably, free boric acid.

Abstract:
Las resinas de amino, que contienen más formaldehído libre del deseado por razones de salud y/o contaminacion, se pueden tratar con una mezcla de reactivos de diceto (o sus análogos de nitrogeno) y otros compuestos que contienen parte de amino, para reducir el contenido del formaldehído libre, mientras no disminuyen, y en algunos casos aun mejoran, la capacidad de las resinas para funcionar de acuerdo con sus usos normales. La invencion es especialmente util para las dispersiones de resina de melamina formaldehído, utiles como agentes que remueven la pegajosidad en las pinturas.
Abstract:
Amino resins that contain more free formaldehyde than is desirable for health and/or pollution reasons can be treated with a mixture of diketo reagents (or their nitrogen analogs) and other compounds containing amino moieties to reduce the free formaldehyde content while not diminishing, and in some cases even enhancing, the ability of the resins to function according to their normal uses. The invention is especially useful for melamine-formaldehyde resin dispersions useful to detackify paint.
