A coated abrasive article comprises a backing, a first binder on the backing, and a plurality of abrasive particles in the first binder. The first binder precursor is an energy-curable preferably, melt-processable resin containing an epoxy resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and a curing agent for crosslinking the epoxy resin that is cured to provide a crosslinked make coating. The above binder precursors of the invention are preferably free of homopolymers and copolymers of olefinic monomers. In another aspect, the invention also describes an energy curable first binder precursor containing an epoxy resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, a polyfunctional acrylate component and a curing agent for crosslinking the epoxy resin that is cured to provide a crosslinked make coating. The invention also relates to a method of producing such coated abrasive articles and a surface-treated backing material.

Coated abrasive article

The invention provides a method for imparting topographical or protective features to a substrate by contacting a sheet material comprising a thermosettable layer with a substrate and heating the sheet material to an elevated temperature.

Melt-flowable materials and method of sealing surfaces

Epoxy adhesive compositions are provided. Specifically, the composition is a two- part, low-heat cure epoxy structural adhesive composition with a unique, well-balanced array of properties. The composition comprises components (A) and (B) where component (A) comprises at least one compound having an average epoxy functionality of at least two and optionally an epoxy functionalized liquid rubber and where component (B) comprises a polyamine, a polyamide and optionally an epoxy reactive liquid rubber. The compositions are useful as structural adhesives in bonding operations in industrial manufacturing such as automobile manufacturing.

Epoxy adhesive composition and use thereof

A method for sealing a discontinuity in the surface of a substrate comprises the steps of: (a) placing over said discontinuity an article comprising (i) a melt-flowable composition characterized by a first width, and (ii) a shaped, polymeric cap having a pre-selected, cross-sectional profile characterized by a second width and a shape in which the thickness of the cap across its width, the width of the cap or both the width and thickness of the cap vary; (b) heating said article to cause said melt-flowable composition to flow and seal said discontinuity; said cap controlling the melt-flow behavior of said melt-flowable composition to substantially confine said melt-flowable composition to the area underneath said cap; and (c) allowing said article to cool while substantially retaining said pre-selected cross-sectional profile of said cap. Various articles for use in the method are also disclosed. The article and the method are particularly useful for sealing the joint in a motor vehicle roof ditch.

Sealing method and article

The invention relates to a high thermal efficiency, insulated glass unit structure sealed with a cured composition containing, inter alia, diorganopolysiloxane(s) and inorganic-organic nanocomposite(s), the cured composition exhibiting low permeability to gas(es).

Insulated glass unit with sealant composition having reduced permeability to gas

A multi-layer article which may be provided in the form of a tape comprises a conformable, compressible, melt flow-resistant core layer having first and second major surfaces, a sealant layer on the first major surface of the core layer, and optionally a bonding layer on the second major surface of the core layer. The sealant layer and the bonding layer each have a surface available for contacting a separate substrate. Various thermoset and foam core layers are disclosed as are thermosettable and thermoplastic sealant layers. The articles are useful for sealing two substrates together, particularly where one of the substrates is glass. Thus, the articles are especially adapted for sealing motor vehicle windshields to a frame. Various assemblies and methods for producing the same are also described.

A latent, thermosettable, melt-flowable sheet material comprising at least two layers, one of which is expandable and flowable, and the other of which flows to encapsulate the expandable layer between it and a substrate to which the sheet material has been adhered. A latent, thermosettable, melt-flowable sheet material which can be cured to provide a weatherable layer is also disclosed. Still further, a method for imparting topographical or protective features to a substrate such as a metal joint of an automobile body is disclosed.
