Patent EP-0610089-B1 (EP)
Inventor: LANE SCOTT A
IPC: C08J3/22

Abstract: The inventive method provides a simple and economical method of manufacturing a laminate which is catalytically effective for subsequent electroless deposition thereon of metals, such as copper, and which is useful as a substrate for printed circuit boards. Advantageously, the inventive method provides an improved laminate having a substantially uniform distribution of finely divided catalytic metal, Me(0), within a crosslinked synthetic polymer impregnant. A catalytic metal-polymer complex is formed between a salt of a catalytic metal and a crosslinkable synthetic polymer, optionally containing a monomeric reactive diluent, to provide a concentrate which may be worked up into an impregnating composition for impregnating reinforcing material therewith. The complex is then destroyed and the catalytic metal, such as palladium-II, reduced to elemental metal, such as palladium metal, Pd(0), during or after crosslinking of the polymer system under conditions effective for crosslinking the polymer system.. Preferably destruction and reduction occur during crosslinking. The catalytic metal is a Group IB or Group VIII metal, preferably palladium or nickel. The crosslinkable synthetic polymer is an unsaturated polyester or polyvinyl ester.

Abstract: Multi-layered tissue paper webs comprising chemical softener compositions and binder materials are disclosed. The multi-layered tissue webs are useful in the manufacture of soft, absorbent paper products such as facial tissues and/or toilet tissues. The multi-layered tissue paper products contain a chemical softening composition comprising a mixture of a quaternary ammonium compound and a polyhydroxy compound. Preferred quaternary ammonium compounds include dialkyl dimethyl ammonium salts such as di(hydrogenated)tallow dimethyl ammonium chloride, di(hydrogenated)tallow dimethyl ammonium methyl sulfate. Preferred polyhydroxy compounds are selected from the group consisting of glycerol, sorbitols, polyglycerols having a weight average molecular weight of from about 150 to about 800, polyoxyethylene glycols and polyoxypropylene glycols having a weight average molecular weight from about 200 to 4000. The multi-layered tissue paper webs also contain an effective amount of binder materials to control linting and/or to offset the loss in tensile strength, if any, resulting from the use of the chemical softening compositions. The binder materials are selected from the various wet and dry strength additives, and retention aids used in the paper making art. Preferably, the majority of the chemical softening compositions will be disposed on the outer layers of the multi-layered tissue paper products where they are most effective. The binder materials are typically dispersed throughout the multi-layered product to control linting. In other words, the chemical softening compositions and the binder materials can be selectively distributed within the multi-layered tissue paper web to enhance the softness, absorbency, and/or lint resistance of a particular layer or ply.
