The invention relates to a composition that contains a binary mixture of bisphenol F and propoxylated bisphenol F. The aim of the invention is to provide aromatic polyols for preparing polyurethane-based and polyisocyanurate-based polymers, which ensure good handling from a technical point of view and good miscibility with the isocyanate component and render the end product flameproof. For this purpose, the invention devises a composition, which contains a binary mixture of ethoxylated bisphenol F and propoxylated bisphenol F in a weight ratio of 20:80 to 80:20.

A process for the production of ethylene vinyl acetate based polymer emulsions having solids levels greater than about 65% by weight comprising the steps of:

Ultra high solids vinyl acetate-ethylene and vinyl acetate homopolymer

Polyurethanes with carboxylate functionality for hair fixative

In a process for the polymerization of aqueous ethylene vinyl acetate emulsions wherein the polymerization is carried out in the presence of a stabilizing system comprising polyvinyl alcohol and a surfactant, the improvement which comprises using a stabilizing system consisting essentially of 2 to 8% polyvinyl alcohol and 0.25 to 4% of at least one surface-active compound comprising the addition products of 50 to 70 moles of ethylene oxide adducted to straight-chained or branch-chained alkanols or alkylphenols containing 6 to 22 carbon atoms in the alkyl group and having an HLB value equal to or greater than 18.0, the amounts being based on total vinyl acetate.
