Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a method of making a reaction inhibiting polymer having a formula of M—CO—NR. The method may comprise reacting PAA with an organic coupling reagent and at least one alicyclic amine to produce the reaction inhibiting polymer. In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, a method of making an acryloyl monomer having a formula of R.sub.a—CO—NR may comprise reacting an acrylic acid with an organic coupling reagent and an alicyclic amine to form the acryloyl monomer. R.sub.a may be an alkylene moiety, M may be a poly(acrylic) acid backbone. NR may be an alicyclic amine moiety coupled to the polymer backbone or coupled to the alkylene moiety.

A solar reactive mulch film comprising one or more layers of heat shrink material pre-strained at a predetermined temperature and tension. Immediately cooling the pre-strained layers retains molecular deformation stresses in the material which facilitate shrinkage but not expansion on exposure to solar radiation. The mulch film adapted to be laid over longitudinal growing beds and held tautly by burying its side edges in soil. Exposure of uncovered portions of film to solar radiation causes shrinkage in one or more directions whereby in combination with the weight of the soil holding it down, maintains tautness of the mulch over a growing period. Methods of manufacture and use of the same.

The present invention provides a composition as well as a method for repairing deep scratches, gouges, etc. and which is particularly useful for aircraft and aerospace transparency repair. The composition is a blend of a polishable two-part, solvent-free, polyurethane coating composition for repairing the transparencies and which, after application, cures to a thermoset polyurethane. An optical grid is emplaced over the area to be repaired prior to applying the blend.
