This invention relates to cyanoacrylate-containing compositions that include (a) a beta-alkoxy cyanoacrylate component, (b) a cyanoacrylate component selected from butyl cyanoacrylates, octyl cyanoacrylates, and combinations thereof; (c) a rubber toughening component (d) a surface modified component; and (e) an adhesion promoter. Cured products of the inventive cyanoacrylate compositions demonstrate improved toughness without an odor typically found with cyanoacrylate-containing compositions.

Fast light curing adhesive compositions, which include cyanoacrylate or methylidene malonate monomers or mixtures thereof, and either a photoinitiator system with a combination of specific ferrocene compounds and specific acylgermane compounds or a photoinitiator system with a specific ferrocene compound substituted with acylgermane groups. The use of that light curable adhesive composition, and a package.

Provided herein are therapeutic acrylate compounds useful as medical adhesives, comprising a therapeutic agent covalently linked to a methacrylate or cyanoacrylate moiety. Adhesive compositions and kits, such as liquid sutures and bone cement also are provided along with uses for the compositions.

A polymer formed from a first monomer of vinylene carbonate and at least one second monomer different form the first monomer that does not contain a glycidyl group, wherein the molar ratio of the first monomer to the second monomer is from 4:1 to 99:1. The polymer, preferably the copolymer, dissolves metal salts and the composition of the copolymer and metal salt may have an ionic conductivity greater than 0.01 mS/cm. The polymer is suitable for use in various components of solid state batteries.
