Reducing product development cycle times without increasing risk. (coatings industry)(1997 Mattiello Memorial Lecture)
January 1, 1998... INTRODUCTION Time Pressures When I joined the coatings industry in 1967, it was a healthy, but slow-moving industry. It consisted of about 2,000 companies, and significantly sized research departments prospered in over 100 of them. At that...

Oxidative crosslinking of alkyd resins studied with mass spectrometry and NMR using model compounds.(First Place Winner 1997 Roon Awards Competition)
January 1, 1998... INTRODUCTION The oxidative crosslinking of alkyd resins has been the subject of many studies. IR and solid state NMR may be used for actual coatings; the chemistry of the reactions involved may better be studied using model compounds. During...

Step-growth polymerization of unsaturated aldehydes with diaminodiphenylmethane.
January 1, 1998... INTRODUCTION Aromatic segments which are incorporated in the polymer chain, increase the mechanical and thermal properties of the polymers. These segments can be included through ether, ester, or imid bonds. These types of resins are usually...
