Abstract: Provided herein are sulfosuccinamates made using polyetheramines as intermediates. The sulfosuccinamates according to the invention exhibit excellent detergency when employed in formulations used as hard surface cleaners, laundry detergents, and dishwashing liquids. In addition, the sulfosuccinamates according to the invention have an unexpectedly high degree of water hardness tolerance, and are easier to produce than similar materials found in the prior art owing to the fact that the product and its intermediates exist in liquid form.

Abstract: This invention is directed to detergent compositions which employ sulfonated linear alkylbenzenes as surfactants, wherein the sulfonated linear alkylbenzenes have a higher content of the sulfonated 2-phenyl alkylbenzene isomers than was previously available in sulfonated phenyl alkylbenzene surfactants of the prior art. Cleaning compositions according to the invention are more effective as cleaning agents over their counterparts of prior art which contain sulfonated linear alkylbenzenes having lower contents of the 2-phenyl alkylbenzene isomers, owing to an unexpected increase in tolerance of water hardness minerals normally associated with precipitation of the active detergent agent. Solid sulfonate salts of alkylbenzenes are also provided, including dry formulations containing same.

Abstract: Described is a process for making acrylic resins suitable as polymeric surfactants used in emulsion polymerization, as pigment grinding resins and for preparing dispersions used as overprint varnishes. The feedstock is styrene, .alpha.-methyl styrene, acrylic acid and a polymerization initiator and is preferably free of solvent. This mix is passed through a continuous tube reactor run at a controlled range of pressure and relatively low residence time and temperature. Optimally, when the polymer/unreacted monomers blend exits the reactor and is devolatilized, the recovered monomers are used to make up part of the feedstock.

Abstract: A single-ply roof cover fatigue tester includes an adjustable platen to which a roof cover sample is attached. Movement of the platen relative to a support frame adjusts the angle at which a tension force is applied to the sample by fluid pressure cylinders. The platen is long enough to accommodate the roof cover sample and three associated fasteners in a straight line at a spacing commonly used in actual roof cover installations. A control system controls the flow of pressure fluid to fluid pressure cylinders on opposite sides of the sample to alternately increase the tension on one side and then the other, while maintaining a minimum tension on the opposite side. A counter is provided to indicate the number of times the increasing tension alternates from one side to the other.

Abstract: Aqueous dispersions of polyamide resins having improved stability with respect to gelation and phase separation are provided, along with preparative methods therefor. The improved stability of the provided aqueous dispersions is achieved by the addition to such dispersion of a chemical moiety, such as a water soluble, amphoteric amino acid, anionic and cationic salts of amino acid, or mixtures thereof, in aqueous solutions. In a preferred embodiment, a dispersion-stabilizing amount of glycine is added with the inversion water used to invert an emulsion of water in polyamide resin. The resulting emulsion of resin in water is then cooled below the resin's melting point, causing the emulsified droplets of the polyamide resin to solidify as finely divided particles which are dispersed uniformly through the aqueous phase. The stable, aqueous dispersions of this invention are useful in coatings, inks, and as coatings for hot melt adhesive applications.
