Certain exemplary embodiments comprise a composition prepared from a Class 1 member, a Class 2 member, and a Class 3 member, said Class 1 member contributing approximately 0.1 percent to approximately 10 percent by dry weight of said composition, said Class 2 member contributing approximately 1 percent to approximately 10 percent by dry weight of said composition, and said Class 3 member contributing an amount up to a balance by dry weight of said composition.

Compositions and methods for protecting materials from damage

An ethylenically unsaturated vegetable oil is modified by the addition of an enophile or dienophile having an acid, ester or anhydride functionality. The modified vegetable oil is then reacted with a functional vinyl monomer to form a vegetable oil derivative. The vegetable oil derivative is useful in forming latexes and coatings.

Functionalized vegetable oil derivatives, latex compositions and coatings

A process for synthesizing copolymers of ethylenically unsaturated monomers with ethylenically unsaturated derivatives of fatty acids and/or oils via emulsion polymerization techniques is performed in two stages. One or more suitable ethylenically unsaturated monomers are polymerized in the first stage of an emulsion polymerization. The ethylenically unsaturated derivatives of fatty acids and/or oils are blended with other monomers and polymerized in a second stage of the polymerization reaction. A suitable surfactant is added to the polymerization mixture to facilitate formation of the emulsion. In a preferred embodiment, the surfactant is a hybrid surfactant, i.e., one having both anionic and non-ionic characteristics.

The present invention relates generally to compositions prepared by polymerizing vinyl neo C -C carboxylic acid esters. Such compositions include latex compositions that are formed by polymerizing vinyl neo C -C carboxylic acid esters with ethylenically unsaturated comonomers such as acrylic acid esters and vinyl acetate. The polymer compositions of the present invention are particularly suitable for use in applications such as architectural (both interior and exterior), direct-to-metal and marine coatings and transportation maintenance applications.

Disclosed is an acrylic polyurethane coating composition characterized by improved impact resistance and high gloss and produced by reacting a polyol, optionally a catalyst, and a polyisocyanate crosslinking agent, wherein the polyol is substituted with 2 to 50% by weight of a polytrimethylene carbonate diol or triol.

High gloss acrylic coatings with improved impact resistance

Disclosed is a modified acrylic coating composition cured with melamine characterized by improved impact resistance which comprises: An acrylic polyol dissolved in a suitable solvent to 40-90% solids; 2 to 50% by weight of said acrylic polyol substituted with a polytrimethylene carbonate polyol selected from a polytrimethylene carbonate diol, a polytrimethylene carbonate triol, or a higher functionality polytrimethylene carbonate polyol; a melamine crosslinking agent; optionally a catalyst; and optionally pigments and other additives commonly used in coatings. Also disclosed in a related embodiment is a melamine/urea formaldehyde polytrimethylene carbonate coating composition that is prepared without acrylic.
