Feb 5, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/019227
Inventors:
Debra L. Wilfong - Lake Elmo MN
Richard J. Rolando - Oakdale MN
Assignee:
3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
B65B 1100
B65B 5502
B65B 5516
US Classification:
53449
Abstract:
Multilayered barrier structures containing a gas barrier layer of a non-chlorine containing organic polymer which is substantially impermeable to oxygen gas and a moisture barrier layer of a mesophase propylene-based material are provided. These structures are environmentally compatible and radiation resistant, and exhibit one or more additional properties, including gas barrier properties, moisture barrier properties, toughness, heat sealability, softness, and quietness during wrinkling. Also provided are methods of preparing and using such multilayered barrier structures, and articles, such as films, pouches, and tubings, formed from these structures.

Azlactone Graft Copolymers

View page
US Patent:
52624846, Nov 16, 1993
Filed:
Sep 9, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/942352
Inventors:
Patrick L. Coleman - Minneapolis MN
Thomas A. Kotnour - Faribault MN
Richard J. Rolando - Oakdale MN
Assignee:
Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
C08F25502
C08F26304
C08F27902
C08F 818
C08F 830
C08F 832

A61K 3702
G01N 33545
US Classification:
525204
Abstract:
Graft copolymers and processes for the preparation thereof are provided. The copolymers comprise a base polymer having grafted thereto a monomeric 2-alkenyl azlactone. The surface properties of the graft copolymers can be modified by binding thereto nucleophilic reagents comprising further functional groups with desired properties. Further, the amount of azlactone available at the surface of a graft copolymer for binding to such nucleophilic reagents can be controlled by selecting a surface against which the graft copolymer is formed. The graft copolymers exhibit desirable thermoplastic, melt flow, and adhesion properties and are particularly useful for immobilizing proteins. Methods of immunoassay based on the immobilization of proteins are also disclosed. Another utility of the graft copolymers involves the compatibilizing of immiscible polymer blends.
