A toothpaste contains 2% by weight of calcium metasilicate, 0.80% of sodium monofluorophosphate and 44.77% calcium carbonate. The presence of calcium metasilicate in combination with the monofluorophosphate and carbonate increases the fluoride uptake over and above that which is expected from the level of free fluoride present.

Novel thermoplastic molding compositions of a polycarbonate, a linear low density polyolefin, a multiphase composite interpolymer of an acrylate and a methacrylate are disclosed which have good impact strengths and reprocessability.

Defoaming compositions consisting essentially of: A) at least one organosilicone compound having defoaming activity in aqueous based compositions; and B) at least one base catalyzed reaction product of: a) a linking agent of formula I wherein each Y group is a halogen atom or a halogen and two Y groups on adjacent carbons in R.sup.4 and an oxygen may be an epoxy group, and R.sup.4 is an alkane triyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms; and b) a compound of formula II wherein R.sup.3 is defined in ...

The present invention is directed to novel organometallic complexes as catalysts for the reaction of compounds with isocyanate and hydroxyl functional groups to form urethane and/or polyurethane and the process employing such catalysts. More particularly, the present invention is directed to novel complexes of zinc(II) with substituted amidines. These novel catalysts are useful for the production of urethanes and polyurethanes which are important in many industrial applications.

Self-igniting, gellike incendiary compositions are prepared by thickening aluminum alkyls and/or aluminum alkyl hydrides with an alkyl branched butadiene polymer. Additionally, the incendiary may contain diluents which are compatible with aluminum alkyls such as hydrocarbons, finely divided metals, and certain organometallic compounds. These incendiaries may be used in firebombs, fire rockets, flame throwers, aerial flares, and other military applications.

Water-soluble salts (e.g., alkali metal, ammonium or water-soluble amine salts) of styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer half-esters are employed in aqueous solutions as coolants and lubricants for metal-working operations e.g., metal cutting and abrading. The copolymers are esterified with both a fatty alcohol having from 10 to 22 carbon atoms and a lower alkoxy polyethylene glycol. Metal-working lubricant compositions are also formulated which comprise these salts along with extreme pressure agen...

An animal deterrent composition comprising a major proportion of a finely divided animal deterrent compound of aluminum together with a minor proportion of one or more of certain specified organic animal deterrent compounds. The invention also consists in a method of deterring animals using the composition of the invention.

Lubricating compositions which contain significant amounts of chlorinated oils (e.g. paraffin oils which have been chlorinated to more than 40 percent chlorine) are improved for use as metal-working lubricants by the inclusion therein of additive amounts (e.g. 5 weight percent) of one or more ethoxylated fatty amines (e.g. a tertiary amine having one C.sub.12 -C.sub.18 fatty alkyl group or radical and 2 polyoxyethylene groups or radicals attached to the amine nitrogen atom). The improved lubrica...

The photosensitive compositions comprising (a) an unsaturated polyester (b) at least one addition polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer having at least one group and having a boiling point above 100.degree. C. at normal atmospheric pressure and (c) a photopolymerization initiator, said unsaturated polyester comprising the segment (I) of the formula; (wherein R.sub.1 is alkylene group having two to four carbon atoms; and x is 2 to 100) the segment (II) of the formula ##SPC1## Or naphthy...

Herbicidal composition and method utilizing as active ingredient one or more N-alphahaloalkylanilide.
