The present invention relates to curable polyurethane polymers made from renewable materials. In particular isosorbide derived from glucose is used. These renewable materials may be formed into curable polyurethane polymer compositions having different chemical functionalities and cure mechanisms.

(Meth)acrylate-functionalized extended isosorbide

Curable compositions that undergo reaction induced phase separation of domains in cured matrix and provide beneficial physical and chemical properties and methods of use of such compositions. Curable compositions that undergo reaction induced phase separation of domains in cured matrix in response to a first set of curing conditions and the domains undergo a second reaction in response to a second set of curing conditions to improve the physical properties of the domains and the cured composition, such as improvements in glass transition temperature and thermal degradation.

Curable compositions for production of reaction induced phase separated compositions with improved properties

Disclosed herein are stretchable conductive ink compositions comprising a polymer, conductive flake, an additive, and optionally conductive beads, wherein the initial resistivity is measured before elongation, and wherein the resistivity at 50% elongation is about 10 times or less of the initial resistivity.

Stretchable electrically conductive ink compositions

The present invention relates to curable polyurethane polymers made from renewable materials and having polymerization accelerator groups built into the polymer. In particular hydroxylated oleaginous materials derived from plant oils, such as soybean oil, are used. These renewable materials may be formed into curable polyurethane polymers having different chemical functionalities and cure mechanisms.

Functionalized accelerating resins derived from renewable materials

The invention provides reactive resins compounds and compositions made from renewable materials, such as plant and animal oils. The reactive resins compounds and compositions may include an accelerator as part of their structure and are made from renewable materials containing a variety of functional groups. The compositions provide excellent adhesion and sealing capability.

Reactive resins made from renewable sources

A method of preparing high molecular weight poly(meth)acrylate polymers having narrow polydispersity indices (PDIs) by coupling poly(meth)acrylate building block units which themselves have narrow PDIs. The building block units have halogenated terminations, which when reacted with selected coupling agents, from the high molecular weight poly(meth)acrylate polymers.

Process for preparing high molecular weight polyacrylates having narrow polydispersity indices and compositions made therefrom

The present invention relates to living radical polymerization processes, reaction products of such processes, and compositions containing such reaction products. More particularly, the invention relates to a living radical polymerization to produce branched polymers, in particular branched polyacrylates.

Process of controlled radical polymerization of branched polyacrylates

The invention provides anaerobic curable compositions comprising a (meth)acrylate component, at least a portion which comprises a (meth)acrylate-functionalized bio-renewable oleaginous polyurethane polymer, and methods of their production and use. These compositions provide excellent adhesion especially on oily surfaces.

Anaerobic curable compositions

An absorbable composition useful for treating absorbable surgical devices to render the same storage stable and/or to enhance delivery of the article and/or a medico-surgically useful substance to a wound. The preferred composition includes collagen or a derivative thereof, a plasticizer and a surfactant.
