  • Patent number: 6972112
    Abstract: A vial pack cover, a vial pack kit, and a method for forming the vial pack cover is provided. The vial pack cover can simultaneously cover a plurality of containers while preventing the contents of the containers from degrading or permeating through the cover. In addition, the vial pack cover allows a user to access individual containers without having to remove the cover from the un-accessed containers.

  • Patent number: 6613185
    Abstract: A composition is disclosed that cures to form a high strength adhesive bond with properties suitable for use in sealing the parts of ranges and other appliances together, without the necessity for a controlled humidity curing environment and without necessity for special ventilation equipment. The present invention describes a self-bonding curable silicone elastomer containing, inter alia, certain unsaturated aliphatic trialkoxysilanes, such as allyltrimethoxysilane, and having physical properties ideal for bonding glass or metal substrates in glass-top or ceramic-top ranges and ovens.

  • Publication number: 20020022136
    Abstract: The present invention is a silicone conductive sponge or foam (open cell) which is arrived at through a two-part addition cured silicone system. When combined with equal parts of “A” and “B”, the system will sponge or foam by heat or at room temperature. A conductive metal is added in concentrations to the system of about 65%-72%, and more preferably in concentrations of 66%-67%. When a sponge sheet stock is formed, the material will sponge 3 to 4 times its original thickness.

  • Patent number: 6004496
    Abstract: High performance silicone rubber windshield wiper blades are provided as a result of molding a tintable platinum group metal catalyzed silicone compositions having an intrinsic viscosity of less than 1.3. Improved lubricity with respect to windshield wiper glass is achieved by a molding procedure which effects a transfer such as a migration, or diffusion of release agent, for example polytetrafluoroethylene, into the surface of the silicone rubber windshield wiper blade.

  • Patent number: 5482591
    Abstract: A laminated impermeable head seal or cap liner is provided in the form of an aluminum foil-packed fiber glass cloth sheet bonded to a silicone rubber sheet. The seal or liner is flexible and resilient to the extent that it can be bent double and twisted 90.degree. repeatedly without loosening or cracking of the aluminum foil.

  • Patent number: 4222917
    Abstract: There is provided process aids for heat cured silicone rubber compositions which are the reaction product of a cyclictrisiloxane, and water or an aliphatic alcohol found in the presence of a catalyst which may be selected from certain moderate to high strength organic acids, lithium hydroxide, ammonia, ammonium hydroxide and primary amines. The advantage of such a process aid is that it is considerably less expensive to produce in silicone manufacturing facilities than the more traditional process aids that have been used in the past.
