A method for preserving wood by contacting wood with a composition comprising a polyurethane polymer, non-aqueous solvents, and a wood preservative.

Wood preservatives

A wood preservative composition and method for preserving wood by contacting wood with said composition comprising a polyurethane polymer, non-aqueous solvents, and a wood preservative active.

Stable dispersions of pesticides in agricultural oil are provided. In particular, the dispersions include a particulate pesticide, agricultural oil, and an agricultural oil-soluble polymer.

Hydrophobic polymers as oil rheology modifiers for agrochemical formulations

The present invention relates to a composition comprising triethylene glycol disorbate and triethylene glycol monosorbate, at a disorbate to monosorbate weight-to-weight ratio of from 19:1 to 99:1. The composition of the present invention is useful as a low VOC coalescent in coatings formulations.

High purity disorbate ester of triethylene glycol

The present invention is a composition comprising a solution or a dispersion of polymer particles, a sorbate ester or sorbamide curing agent, and a cure modulating additive for the curing agent. The curing agent is a sorbic acid ester or a sorbamide and the cure modulating agent is a reagent capable of accelerating or attenuating the rate of cure of the curing agent. The control of cure kinetics is important for speeding up cure rates where rates are too slow or by reducing cure rates where curing too rapidly results in undesirable color formation.

Sorbic acid ester containing coatings composition

The present invention is a composition comprising a stable aqueous dispersion of polymer particles and a sorbate ester, which is a liquid at 20&#xb0; C. and has a molecular weight in the range of 125 to 500 g/mol. The composition of the present invention provides a way to enhance film formation of coatings prepared using relatively high Tlatexes without the aid of high volatile organic content (VOC) coalescents.

Remediation of yellowing in a coatings formulation containing a sorbate ester or a sorbamide coalescent

A method of polishing a sapphire substrate is provided, comprising: providing a substrate having an exposed sapphire surface; providing a chemical mechanical polishing slurry, wherein the chemical mechanical polishing slurry comprises, as initial components: colloidal silica abrasive, wherein the colloidal silica abrasive has a negative surface charge; and, wherein the colloidal silica abrasive exhibits a multimodal particle size distribution with a first particle size maximum between 2 and 25 nm; and, a second particle size maximum between 75 and 200 nm; optionally, a biocide; optionally, a nonionic defoaming agent; and, optionally, a pH adjuster. A chemical mechanical polishing composition for polishing an exposed sapphire surface is also provided.

Chemical mechanical polishing composition for polishing a sapphire surface and methods of using same

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a stable aqueous dispersion of crosslinkable polymer particles, a peroxidase enzyme, and a hydrophobic hydroperoxide having a 10-hour half life temperature of at least 100&#xb0; C. The composition provides a robust one-pot peroxidase mediated cure for latex particles bearing a variety of polymerizable functional groups.

One pot biocatalytic peroxide mediated cure

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a stable aqueous dispersion of polymer particles, an oxidoreductase, and a cofactor for the oxidoreductase and a method for its preparation. The invention is useful for converting certain classes of VOCs to non-VOCs.

Enzymatic conversion of volatile organic compounds

The present invention relates to a coatings composition comprising an alkyd, a pigment, a rheology modifier, a radical producing oxidoreductase, and one or more additives, wherein the alkyd contains at least one C&#x2014;C(O)O&#x2014; group having at least one diallylic group. The coatings composition of the present invention cures relatively rapidly without ancillary crosslinking agents and with minimal, if any, VOCs from solvents or coalescents.
