Abstract

Abstract A water-in-resin emulsion for producing a porous plastic is comprised of a mixture of water dispersed in discrete droplets uniformly throughout a continuous phase of a resinous copolymerizable composition which includes a copolymerizable mixture containing a liquid unsaturated polyester of a polyhydric alcohol and saturated and ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acids and a compound having a polymerizable CH 2 ═C< group, wherein the copolymerizable mixture has a molecular weight in the range of from about 2500 to about 3500; a cobalt salt promoter in an amount within the range of from about 0.25 to about 0.5% based on the weight of the copolymerizable mixture; a tertiary aromatic amine accelerator in an amount within the range of from about 0.75 to about 1.75% based on the weight of the copolymerizable mixture; and, a lithium salt emulsifier in an amount within the range of from about 0.5 to about 1.5% based on the weight of the copolymerizable mixture.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 198 words
A water in resin emulsion comprising a mixture of water dispersed in discrete droplets in a continuous phase of a resinous, copolymerizable composition including: (a) a copolymerizable mixture containing a liquid unsaturated polyester of a polyhydric alcohol and saturated and ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acids and a compound having a polymerizable CH 2 ═C group, said copolymerizable mixture having a molecular weight in the range of from about 2500 to about 3500; (b) a cobalt salt promoter for promoting the cure of said copolymerizable mixture, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.25 to about 1.5% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture and a 12% cobalt content in said salt; (c) a tertiary aromatic amine accelerator for accelerating said promoter, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.75 to about 1.75% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture; and, (d) a lithium salt emulsifier for insuring the stability of an emulsion of water in said copolymerizable mixture upon agitation thereof, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.5 to about 1.5% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture and a 2% lithium content in said salt.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 198 words
A water in resin emulsion comprising a mixture of water dispersed in discrete droplets in a continuous phase of a resinous, copolymerizable composition including: (a) a copolymerizable mixture containing a liquid unsaturated polyester of a polyhydric alcohol and saturated and ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acids and a compound having a polymerizable CH 2 ═C group, said copolymerizable mixture having a molecular weight in the range of from about 2500 to about 3500; (b) a cobalt salt promoter for promoting the cure of said copolymerizable mixture, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.25 to about 1.5% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture and a 12% cobalt content in said salt; (c) a tertiary aromatic amine accelerator for accelerating said promoter, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.75 to about 1.75% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture; and, (d) a lithium salt emulsifier for insuring the stability of an emulsion of water in said copolymerizable mixture upon agitation thereof, present in an amount in the range of from about 0.5 to about 1.5% based on the weight of said copolymerizable mixture and a 2% lithium content in said salt.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 52 words
The emulsion of claim 1, wherein: (a) said promoter is present in the range of from about 0.3 to about 0.4%; (b) said accelerator is present in the range of from about 1.0 to about 1.5%; and, (c) said emulsifier is present in the range of from about 0.75 to about 1.25%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 74 words
The emulsion of claims 1 or 2, wherein: (a) said copolymerizable mixture is unsaturated polyester cut with styrene, having a molecular weight of from about 2900 to about 3300; (b) said promoter is selected from the group consisting of cobalt octoate and the % metal equivalent of cobalt naphthenate; (c) said accelerator is selected from the group consisting of dimethyl aniline, dimethyl toluidine and mixtures thereof; and, (d) said emulsifier is 2% lithium neodecanoate.
