Water coatings

Copolymers with butadiene, ie, those containing at least 60 wt % butadiene, are an important family of mbbers. In addition to synthetic mbber, these compositions have extensive uses as paper coatings, water-based paints, and carpet backing. Because of unfavorable reaction kinetics in a mass system, these copolymers are made in an emulsion polymerization system, which favors chain propagation but not termination (199). The result is economically acceptable rates with desirable chain lengths. Usually such processes are mn batchwise in order to achieve satisfactory particle size distribution. 

Proper control of the properties of drilling mud is very important for their preparation and maintenance. Although oil-base muds are substantially different from water-base muds, several basic tests (such as specific weight, API funnel viscosity, API filtration, and retort analysis) are run in the same way. The test interpretations, however, are somewhat different. In addition, oil-base muds have several unique properties, such as temperature sensitivity, emulsion stability, aniline point, and oil coating-water wettability that require other tests. Therefore, testing of water and oil-base muds will be considered separately.

The surface of a carbon electrode was at first coated with a thin film of an anionic polymer such as sodium poly(styrene-sulfonate) 95) or nafion 96) (thickness thousand A) then the cationic Ru(bpy)2+ was adsorbed in the anionic layer electrostatically. The modification was also made by coating water insoluble polymer pendant Ru(bpy)2 + ( ) from its DMF solution 97). These Ru(bpy) +/polymer modified electrode gave a photoresponse in the MV2+ solution with the Pt counter electrode 95-97) The time-current behaviours induced by irradiation and cutoff of the light under argon are shown in Fig. 28. It is interesting to see that the direction of the photocurrent reversed at the electrode potential of ca. 0.4 V (vs. Ag—AgCl) under... 

Exemplary water-repellent treatments for masonry surfaces include metal stearates, oils, waxes, acrylates (both polymers and monomers), silicones (solvent-based and emulsion), siliconates, silanes and, fluorochemicals. In contrast, to waterproofing coatings, water-repellent coatings, because they are permeable to water vapor, do not trap moisture and, therefore they can reduce spalling. In addition most water-repellent coatings do not alter the appearance of a porous masonry.

The nature of the adsorbed monolayer depends on the interaction of the polar head group and the substrate surface. For example, if a glass microscope slide is raised up through a barium stearate monolayer spread on distilled water, the molecules in the film will be oriented with the hydrocarbon chains outwards, and hence the adsorbed film is hydrophobic 1I80. When a previously coated plate is dipped back into the surfactant-coated water, a second oriented layer will be deposited and the coated surfac m ain becomes hydrophilic as the head groups point outward. 

Hard fats are used to coat water-soluble bioactives. Release occurs by heating above the melting point of the fat or by mechanical rupture. Fat coatings have been used for protecting many water-soluble materials, which may otherwise be volatilized or damaged during thermal processing and to deliver materials such as ferrous sulfate, vitamins and other minerals. The peptides of casein hydrolysates encapsulated in lipospheres were shown to have reduced bitterness (Barbosa et al. 2004).

The reproducibility of the results for heated filament pyrolysers (CDS Pyroprobe 1000) and Curie point pyrolysers (Horizon Instruments) was reported for several samples [34]. This included several synthetic polymers, dammar resin, chitin, an insect cuticle, a hardwood (cherry), a seed coat (water lily), lycopod cuticle (fossil Eskdalia), as well as several organic geological samples. All samples were pyrolysed at 610° C for 5 s in a flow of helium. The residence time in the pyrolyser before pyrolysis was kept constant and the temperature of the sample housing was 250° C. Other parameters such as the temperature of the transfer line to the analytical instrument were also the same. Both systems were connected to a GC/MS system for the pyrolysates analysis.

To further reduce the emission of solvents from coatings, water-borne two-component coatings cross-linked with isocyanates are being developed. The challenge in formulating these systems is the selection of a catalyst that is hydrolytically stable and catalyzes only the hydroxyl reaction and not the water reaction. Di-n-butyltin carboxylates i or phenoxides hydrolyze to the oxide in water. Di-n-butyltin bis(2,3-dihydroxypropylmercaptide) is reported to be stable in water and has been used in two-component water-borne coatings. ...
