Abstract:
Processes for inhibiting scale produced during wet process phosphoric acid production by adding a scale-inhibiting amount of a reagent having a primary amine-containing polymer, or salt thereof, to one or more stages of a wet process phosphoric acid production stream are provided herein, wherein the primary amine-containing polymer includes an A mer according to Formula (I): where R is H, C1-C6 alkyl, C2-C6 alkenyl, halide, or carboxyl; R1 is H, C1-C6 alkyl, or C2-C6 alkenyl; R2 is H or an A mer according to Formula (I) as herein defined; R3 is chosen from a direct bond or a C1-C12 alkyl, C2-C12 alkenyl, or a C6-C12 aryl group; and n is an integer chosen to provide a weight average molecular weight of the primary amine-containing polymer of at least 300 Daltons, and wherein the percentage of primary amines in the polymer is from 30 mole % to 100 mole % based on the total percentage of mer units in the polymer.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a dry, self-supporting fibrous material, the fibers of which have been treated with a binder composition. The fibrous material can be slit into tapes or tows that are suitable for use in an Automated Tape Laying (ATL) or Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) process. This fibrous material is suitable for forming preforms which are configured to receive a matrix resin by resin infusion in the manufacturing of structural composite parts.

Ashless corrosion inhibitor compositions including one or more reaction product formed from the reaction of a polyether compound of formula and a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinic anhydride of formula are provided herein, along with lubricant compositions containing same, and methods of using same for inhibiting corrosion of a metal.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a process for producing carbon fibers utilizing a salt of an organic cation containing a C═N imine group, and carbon fibers produced by such process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK) polymers, a method for the manufacture thereof, to articles and composites made therefrom, to methods of making the composites, and composite articles including the PEKK composites. It was surprisingly discovered that by synthesizing the PEKK polymers from low-metal monomers and selectively controlling the relative amounts of reactants during the synthesis, PEKK polymers having unexpectedly improved melt stability can be obtained. The PEKK composites including the PEKK polymers are especially well-suited for fabrication of thick composite parts where melt stability of the polymer matrix is important.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to rapid-curing resin formulations as well as fiber-reinforced composite materials comprising the same and their use in the manufacture of molded articles, particularly where the manufacturing process requires high throughput and where resin formulations having consistent handling characteristics (e.g., tack and flexibility) would be preferable across normal to elevated laminating environments (as defined by temperatures between 20° C. and 60° C.). The present invention further relates to a manufacturing process for preparing an article, particularly a molded article, from a fiber-reinforced composite material comprising a rapid-curing resin formulation.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a composite film made of at least LCP and a fiber fabric, for example presenting a thickness of less than 0.10 mm, as well as articles comprising such composite films, exhibiting low dielectric constant and dissipation factors and being suitable for mobile electronic device components, for example flexible printed circuit board (FPC).
Abstract:
A polymer comprising repeating units derived from a first monomer, typically acrylonitrile, and repeating units derived from a second monomer different from the first monomer, wherein the second monomer is a compound comprising an ethylenically unsaturated organic anion and an organic cation containing a C═N imine group; a process for producing carbon fibers using the said polymer; and carbon fibers made therefrom, are described herein.
