The present invention relates to a method of preparing an oxidatively curable coating formulation made from an oxidatively curable alkyd-based resin, a complex comprising one or more manganese ions and one or more triazacyclononane-based ligands; and to the use of triazacyclononane-based ligands for accelerating the rate of curing of an alkyd-based resin formulation by such complexes. The formulations may be paints or other oxidatively curable coating compositions.

The present invention relates to the use of spray-dried sorbitol, such as Parteck® SI, as plasticizer for polymer containing compositions processed by (hot) melt extrusion. Due to its improved properties, achieved by its special manufacturing process (spray drying), this direct compressible excipient shows more additional benefits than the same substance in crystalline state.

A thermoplastic elastomer compound includes a polyolefin elastomer blend of at least two different polyolefin elastomers, styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene block copolymer, and plasticizer. The compound has a Melt Flow Rate (230° C., 2.16 kg) of no less than about 5 g/10 min and a Melt Flow Rate (190° C., 2.16 kg) of no less than about 1 g/10 min. Elastomeric films formed from the compound can be used in place of elastomeric films based on styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS) block copolymers to make components of disposable hygiene articles.

A rubber composition includes a carboxyl group-containing nitrile rubber of which iodine value is 120 or less, a polyetherester plasticizer, and a metallic compound, wherein an amount of stearic acid adsorbed by the metallic compound is 80 mg/g or more and 300 mg/g or less.

An adhesive sheet utilizes an acrylic resin composition without using a separate primer layer, thus providing excellent adhesion, high reliability due to its excellent light resistance under the sunlight exposure, and excellent elastic modulus, and can be easily used as an adhesive material in various fields such as building materials and automobiles.
