Disclosed are ethylenically unsaturated salts of allyl (poly)ether sulfates utilized as reactive surfactants or emulsifiers during emulsion polymerization.

Polymerizable surfactants having water whitening resistance and methods for use

Paint, clear coat, stain, adhesive, or other aqueous formulations that contain at least one [(dimethylamino)alkyl]-imino-dialcohol and a alkyd emulsion, polymer latex or polyurethane dispersion binder. Also disclosed are methods for manufacture and use of these formulations. The [(dimethylamino)alkyl]-imino-dialcohols provide aqueous formulations having low odor and reduced volatile organic compounds (VOC). The [(dimethylamino)alkyl]-imino-dialcohols also aid in dispersing pigment and other solids so less co-dispersant is needed for aqueous paint or coating formulations.

Amine-imino dialcohol neutralizing agents for low volatile compound aqueous organic coating compositions and methods for using same

An amine adduct is made by (1) forming an addition intermediate by heating a mixture comprising at least one diene and at least one unsaturated fatty acyl compound, and reacting the addition intermediate with a diamine to form the amine adduct, or by (2) reacting at least one unsaturated fatty acyl compound with at least one diamine to form an amine intermediate, and heating a mixture of the amidoamine intermediate and at least one diene to form the amine adduct, or by (3) reacting at least one unsaturated fatty tertiary amine compound with at least at least one diene to form the amine adduct. A surfactant composition is derived from the amine adduct and is particularly useful in a method for enhancing the recovery of oil from a reservoir having a production wellbore, comprising introducing an aqueous flooding fluid into the reservoir at one or more locations different from the location of the production wellbore, said fluid comprising the surfactant composition and recovering the oil through the production wellbore.

Amine adducts, derivatives thereof, methods for making such adducts and derivatives, and methods for using such adducts and derivatives

Disclosed are novel tri-substituted aromatic-alkoxylated monomers, polymers made with the novel tri-substituted aromatic-alkoxylated monomers, pH responsive polymers made with the novel tri-substituted aromatic-alkoxylated monomers, and related methods. Also disclosed is an aqueous coating composition including at least one latex polymer derived from at least one monomer copolymerized or blended with alkali swellable acrylate copolymer. Also provided is a method of preparing an aqueous coating composition such as a latex paint including the above components.

Tri-substituted aromatic-containing monomers, copolymers and methods for use

Disclosed are ethylenically unsaturated salts of allyl (poly)ether sulfates utilized as reactive surfactants (emulsifiers) during emulsion polymerization.

Allyl ether sulfate polymerizable surfactants and methods for use

Disclosed are novel tri-substituted aromatic-alkoxylated surface active compounds. Also provided is a method of preparing an aqueous coating composition such as a latex paint including the above components.

Tri-substituted aromatic-containing additives and surfactants and methods for use

A monomer compound that contains at least one polymerizable functional group per molecule, and at least one bicycloheptyl-, bicycloheptenyl-, or branched (C-C)alkyl-polyether radical per molecule, wherein the bicycloheptyl- or bicycloheptenyl-polyether radical may optionally be substituted on one or more of the ring carbon atoms by one or two (C-C)alkyl groups per ring carbon atom is useful in making polymers, particularly pH responsive polymers.

Compositions having HASE rheology modifiers

A coalescent composition for coating compositions such as paints, adhesives, and coatings comprising a blend of dibasic esters, specifically (i) esters of adipic, glutaric, and/or succinic diacids and/or (ii) esters of isomers of adipic acid have advantages, including efficiency and low VOC.
