Abstract:
A composition and method of treating plastic or painted surfaces. The compositions are certain water dispersible or soluble polyphenol polymers formulated with surfactants which can then be used in the form of an aqueous dispersion or solution as a rinsing aid after cleaning of the plastic or painted surfaces prior to painting thereof. The treatment provides a water wettable surface which is 100 % water break-free.
Abstract:
An aqueous liquid composition for cleaning and degreasing metal surfaces consists essentially of water and the following dissolved, stably dispersed, or both dissolved and stably dispersed components: A) alkali metal borate salts; B) boric acid in excess of any generated by reaction of anions of component A) with water; C) nonionic surfactant; and D) anionic and/or amphoteric surfactant.
Abstract:
The invention is a cleaning solution for degreasing metal articles which contain water soluble, N-alkyl substituted amides in which the alkyl substituent has from 6 to 22 carbon atoms and at least one of (i) amine oxide surfactants, (ii) non-ionic water soluble surfactants with molecules containing a polyoxyalkylene block, and (iii) alkali stable anionic, or both anionic and amphoteric, surfactants. Preferred compositions of the invention can replace a vapor degreasing process for cleaning oil, grease, and waxy-type contaminants from metal articles to the level of cleanliness required in the aerospace industry.
Abstract:
Chromated aluminum and aluminum alloy surfaces, to improve their corrosion resistance, are treated with A composition for treatment and after treatment of surfaces, especially metals, with derivatives of polyphenol compounds that include substituted aminomethyl groups on at least some of the phenyl rings in the polyphenol polymers, with molecular weights within the range of about 700 to about 70,000 being preferred.
Abstract:
Processes for the preparation of polyphenol polymers useful as surface coatings wherein the process is carried out in the absence of organic solvents, and the polyphenol polymers are the reaction products of a phenolic polymer or copolymer, an amine, and an aldehyde, ketone, or mixture thereof; and the aqueous solutions resulting therefrom.
Abstract:
A metal treatment solution comprising an effective amount of a soluble or dispersible compound which is a derivative of a polyphenol. A composition for treatment and after treatment of metal with polyphenol compounds is provided. The present invention includes novel derivatives of polyphenol compounds which are useful in surface treatment solutions or dispersions. A method for using these solutions or dispersions is also provided. The molecular weight of the polyphenols used to form the derivatives of the present invention are in the range of from about 360 to 30,000 or greater. The resulting derivatives of the present invention typically have a molecular weight of up to about 2,000,000 with molecular weights within the range of about 700 to about 70,000 being preferred.

The derivatives include substituted aminomethyl groups on at least some of the phenyl rings in the polyphenol polymers, with molecular weights within the range of about 700 to about 70,000 being preferred. The compositions are particularly useful for treating chromated aluminum surfaces prior to painting, to improve corrosion resistance, and when combined with surfactants, for treating plastic and painted surfaces to improve rinsability without water breaks.
