A removable paint composition that includes (a) 10-90% by weight, based on dry solids weight, of an acrylic copolymer binder having an acid number between 35 and 100 (expressed as grams KOH/gram polymer), and a Tg between &#x2212;15&#xb0; C. and 35&#xb0; C.; (b) a pigment or dye in an amount sufficient to achieve a desired color; (c) 0.30 to 3.0% by weight, based on dry solids weight, of ammonium hydroxide to achieve a composition pH of 6.5 to 9.7; and (d) water. The paint composition is free of urethane polymers and is removable from a surface upon application of an aqueous amine solution.

A liquid fabric treatment composition comprising a cationic fabric softening agent and a water-soluble linear polymeric viscosity modifier represented by the formula: Z&#x2014;Y&#x2014;(X&#x2014;Y)&#x2014;Z in which: X represents a polyether chain, each Y independently represents a linking group derived from a diisocyanate, each Z independently represents a hydrophobic group and optionally includes a spacer linked to Y, n represents an integer of at least 2, and the molecular weight of the polymer is from 2,000 to 80,000.

The present invention is directed to a release composition for molds and formers used in the production of natural and synthetic latex articles. The release coating contains a water-borne, high Tg polymer formed from at least one hydrophobic monomer and at least one hydrophilic monomer, where the Tg of the polymer is at least &minus;10&deg; C. One advantage of the release composition is that it is compatible with a coagulant solution used in the formation of latex gloves. Articles formed using the release coating have good anti-blocking properties.

A textile treatment composition which imparts anti-wrinkling properties to textiles treated therewith, said textile treatment composition comprising a polyhydroxyalkylurea crosslinking agent having at least two urea moieties. Textiles treated with the compositions of the invention display a significant reduction in wrinkles compared with nontreated textiles. Moreover, the treated textiles have a tactile sensation of feeling soft and retain their smoothness after laundering.

A controlled release bleach thickening composition comprising bleach, water, and 0.1 to 50 weight percent, based on the total weight of the controlled release bleach thickening composition, of at least one crosslinked carboxylated polymer which is prepared from 30 to 80 weight percent of at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrophilic monomer, from 20 to 70 weight percent of at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrophobic monomer, and from about 0.5 to about 10 weight percent of a degradable crosslinking monomer selected from the group consisting of a crosslinking monomer having at least two ethylenically unsaturated moieties, a crosslinking monomer having at least one ethylenically unsaturated moiety and at least one functional group capable of reacting with another functional group on a monomer to form a degradable crosslink, and combinations thereof. In the controlled release bleach thickening compositions, the solubility of the polymer is suppressed by crosslinking. Most of the polymer is isolated from degradation by the bleach, thus preventing degradation of the polymer backbone which destroys the thickening effect. Slow, but selective degradation of the polymer crosslinks acts to solubilize a small amount of polymer which functions as an efficient thickener. A continuous supply of the soluble polymer is established by this time release mechanism to replenish the soluble polymer as it is degraded by the bleach, thus maintaining the thickening effect after aging at elevated temperature.

This invention relates to pressure sensitive adhesives, and processes of preparing such adhesives, comprising random star polymers which are crosslinked by reaction with multifunctional crosslinking agent. These adhesives can be used in coated articles.
