Aspects of the present disclosure relate to Schiff base oligomers and uses thereof. In at least one aspect, an oligomer is represented by Formula (IV) wherein each instance of R.sup.9 is independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, and ether. Each instance of R.sup.28 and R.sup.29 of Formula (IV) is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, and aryl. Each instance of R.sup.33 of Formula (IV) is independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocyclyl, and a bond. Each instance of R.sup.41 of Formula (IV) is independently —NH— or a bond and each instance of R.sup.40 is independently —NH— or —NH—NH—. Each instance of R.sup.42 of Formula (IV) is independently —NH— or a bond and each instance of R.sup.43 is independently —NH— or —NH—NH—.

The present invention is directed to an addition polymer comprising an addition polymer backbone; at least one moiety comprising a sulfonic acid group; and at least one carbamate functional group. The present invention is also directed towards methods of making the addition polymer, aqueous resinous dispersions comprising the addition polymer, methods of coating a substrate and coated substrates.

Binders, methods for making same, and methods for making composite lignocellulose products therefrom. The binder can include about 30 wt % to about 40 wt % of solids that include a urea-modified aldehyde-based resin; about 0.1 wt % to about 3 wt % of solids that include an isocyanate-based resin; about 0.1 wt % to about 12 wt % of an extender; and about 50 wt % to about 62 wt % of water, where all weight percent values are based on a total weight of the binder. The binder can have a sodium hydroxide equivalent weight alkalinity of about 3 wt % to about 9 wt %.
