Abstract:
This invention concerns low viscosity aldimine and ketimine reactive diluents having multi-imine functionality, which are useful in automotive refinish coating compositions, including a process for making them and the coatings that contain them.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a coating composition containing a carbamate-functional resin having in its structure a hyperbranched or star polyol core, a first chain extension based on a polycarboxylic acid or anhydride, a second chain extension based on an epoxy containing compound, and having carbamate functional groups on the core, the second chain extension, or both; and a second resin containing functional groups reactive with the carbamate groups on the carbamate-functional resin. In one embodiment, the coating compositions are used as a clearcoat to be applied over a basecoat to form a composite coating. The compositions exhibit a combination of desirable properties, such as scratch and mar resistance, resistance to environmental etch, good intercoat adhesion, and high solids.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a dendritic macromolecule comprising a core and branches emanating from the core wherein the branches are based on vinyl cyanide and/or fumaryl dinatrile units. The invention also relates to processes for preparing these dendritic macromolecules. The dendritic macromolecules according to the invention are not sensitive to degradation through hydrolysis reactions and are also very stable at a high temperature. The processes are very suitable for large scale production of the dendritic macromolecules without requiring purification of reaction intermediates.
Abstract:
Dense star polymers having terminal group densities greater than conventional star polymers exhibit greater and more uniform reactivity than their corresponding conventional star polymers. For example, a third generation, amine-terminated polyamidoamine dense star polymer prepared from ammonia, methyl acrylate and ethylenediamine has 1.24.times.10.sup.-4 amine moieties per unit volume (cubic Angstrom units) in contrast to the 1.58.times.10.sup.-6 amine moieties per unit volume contained by a conventional star polymer. Such dense star polymers are useful as demulsifiers for oil/water emulsions, wet strength agents in the manufacture of paper, and agents for modifying viscosity in aqueous formulations such as paints.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hard coating film including a substrate and a hard coating layer provided on at least one surface of the substrate, in which the hard coating layer includes a fluorine-based UV-curable-functional-group-containing compound, a conductive polymer, and a solvent, the conductive polymer being included in a specific amount, and the surface roughness (Ra) value of the hard coating layer is 1 nm or less, whereby the hard coating film can simultaneously exhibit hard coating performance and antifouling performance even in the form of a single layer not including a separate antifouling layer, and is remarkably improved in an antifouling effect based on the low surface roughness thereof due to the absence of inorganic fine particles, and the improved antifouling effect can be effectively maintained even in the presence of variously changing environmental conditions, and to a window and an image display device using the same.
Abstract:
A composite structure is provided, which includes a support, an active layer wrapping the support, a dendrimer grafted to the active layer through covalent bondings, and a plurality of anti-fouling groups, wherein each of the anti-fouling groups is grafted to terminals of the dendrimer through covalent bondings. The terminals of the dendrimer include amino group, hydroxyl group, or thiol group.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an aqueous dispersible polymer composition comprising: (a) at least one of: (i) a dendritic polymer in admixture with a hydrophilic functionalizing agent; and (ii) a hydrophilic functionalized dendrimer; and (b) a non-dendritic polymer capable of forming bonds with said dendritic polymer to thereby form a dendrimer-non-dendrimer (DND) polymer hybrid that is dispersible in the aqueous phase, methods of forming the same and uses thereof.
Abstract:
A high-hardness hard coat film having a reduced degree of curling and an ionizing ray polymerizable resin composition for forming the hard coat layer of such a hard coat film are provided. The hard coat film includes a resin film and a hard coat layer disposed on the surface of the resin film. The hard coat layer is formed of a cured product of a photopolymerizable composition containing an acrylic component, a hyperbranched acrylate resin, a silicone component, and silica particles. The cured product is produced by exposure to ionizing rays.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an encapsulation barrier stack, capable of encapsulating a moisture and/or oxygen sensitive article and comprising a multilayer film, wherein the multilayer film comprises: one or more barrier layer(s) having low moisture and/or oxygen permeability, and one or more sealing layer(s) arranged to be in contact with a surface of the at least one barrier layer, thereby covering defects present in the barrier layer, wherein the one or more sealing layer(s) comprise(s) a plurality of dendrimer encapsulated nanoparticles, the nanoparticles being reactive in that they are capable of interacting with moisture and/or oxygen to retard the permeation of moisture and/or oxygen through the defects present in the barrier layer.
Abstract:
A film-forming composition including a triazine ring-containing hyperbranched polymer with a repeating unit structure indicated by formula (1), and inorganic micro particles is provided. This enables the provision of a film-forming composition capable of hybridizing without reducing dispersion of the inorganic micro particles in a dispersion fluid, capable of depositing a coating film with a high refractive index, and suitable for electronic device film formation. (In the formula, R and R′ are mutually independent and indicate a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryl group, or an aralkyl group, and Ar indicates a divalent organic group including either an aromatic ring or a heterocyclic ring, or both.)
