Patent ID: 8809404

Claim:
A soluble or dispersible copolymer composition, comprising the reaction products of (a) a copolymer having the formula where R A is a monovalent group containing at least one terminal alkenyl group, such as an allyl (—CH 2 —CH═CH 2 ), vinyl (—CH═CH 2 ) or methallyl (—C(CH 3 )═CH 2 ) group, optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups; R 1 is selected from —OH, —OC(O)CH 3 or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical, optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, having from about 1 to about 40 carbon atoms; R 2 is a trivalent hydrocarbon radical optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, having from about 3 to about 40 carbon atoms; R 3 is selected from hydrogen, a —C(O)CH 3 group or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, having from about 1 to about 40 carbon atoms; and subscripts a, b, c, d and e are subject to the limitation 3<a+b+c+d+e<about 1000 and subscripts d+e≧2; (b) a silicone hydride having the formula M f M H g D h D H i T j T H k Q l wherein M=R 4 R 5 R 6 SiO 1/2 ; M H =R 7 R 8 HSiO 1/2 ; D=R 9 R 10 SiO 2/2 ; D H =R 11 HSiO 2/2 ; T=R 12 SiO 3/2 ; T H =HSiO 3/2 ; Q=SiO 4/2 ; R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 and R 12 are each independently selected from the groups of OR 13 or monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, having from about 1 to about 20 carbon atoms; R 13 is selected from the group of H or monovalent hydrocarbon radicals optionally containing heteroatoms and hydroxyl groups, having from about 1 to about 20 carbon atoms; subscripts f, g, h, i, j, k and l are subject to the limitation 2<f+g+h+i+j+k+l<about 300, and g+i+k≧1; and (c) a cross-linking agent.
