Abstract:
The invention relates to an insulated glass unit having an increased service life. An outer glass pane and inner glass pane are sealed to a spacer to provide an improved gas impermeable space. The glass unit includes a curable two-part sealer composition which, upon curing, exhibits unexpectedly high adhesion to substrates.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for separating emulsions of oil and water, the method comprising incorporating a demulsifying-effective amount of a polyorganosiloxane demulsifier into an emulsion comprising an oil phase and an aqueous phase. The invention also relates to compositions containing polyorganosiloxane demulsifier and the water and oil phases of an emulsion.
