The present disclosure describes agrochemical formulations that include optionally a rosin, one or more agrochemical active ingredient(s), and a sulfopolymer, such as a sulfopolyester. The present disclosure also describes methods of making and using such formulations in agriculture.

Agrochemical formulation containing a sulfopolymer

Disclosed is the use of glycol ether aryl ester plasticizers as viscosity reducing agents in plastisols comprising di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate, 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester, or diisononyl phthalate as the primary plasticizer. The glycol ether aryl ester plasticizers improve viscosity and viscosity stability while maintaining or improving plastisol properties such as Shore A Hardness and fusion time.

Glycol ether aryl ester plasticizer

The present application discloses novel cyclohexane dicarboxylate mixed esters of formula I: wherein R, R, and n are defined herein. The mixed esters are useful as plasticizers. The application also discloses resin compositions comprising the cyclohexane dicarboxylate mixed esters of formula I.

Cyclohexane dicarboxylate mixed ester compositions useful as plasticizers

The present invention is generally related to various types of compositions that comprise a polyindane resin. In particular, the polyindane resins may be utilized in various polymer-based and elastomer-based formulations in order to enhance several properties and characteristics of those formulations. More specifically, elastomeric compositions are provided that comprise at least one polyindane resin, which may be used to replace or enhance the functionality of existing hydrocarbon resins used in elastomeric formulations. The elastomeric compositions may be used to produce various tire components.

Tires comprising polyindane resins and uses thereof

The present invention is generally related to various types of compositions that comprise a polyindane resin. In particular, the polyindane resins may be utilized in various polymer-based and elastomer-based formulations in order to enhance several properties and characteristics of those formulations. More specifically, adhesive formulations are provided that comprise at least one polyindane resin, which may be used to replace or enhance the functionality of existing hydrocarbon resins typically used in adhesive formulations. Compositions comprising at least one thermoplastic elastomer and at least one polyindane resin are also provided.

Adhesives comprising polyindane resins

Disclosed is a method for improving vibration damping of a substrate, such as the underbody of an automobile. The method comprises applying a plastisol which comprises a polymeric component and a plasticizer. The fused plastisol has improved damping behavior as determined using Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis. Novel plastisols and novel plasticizers are also disclosed.

Polymeric compositions with improved noise suppression

Disclosed is a method for improving vibration damping of a substrate, such as the underbody of an automobile. The method comprises applying a plastisol which comprises a polymeric component, a general purpose plasticizer and a rosin ester resin. The fused plastisol has improved damping behavior as determined using Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis.

Disclosed is a plasticizer comprising xylylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate. The plasticizer can comprise xylylene glycol di-2ethylhexanoate and a second plasticizer. Also disclosed is a plastisol comprising a PVC resin dispersed in the liquid phase and a plasticizer comprising xylylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate and a second plasticizer. Additionally disclosed, an article can comprise the fused plastisol.

Low-volatility plasticizer blends
