  • Acidic glass fiber binding composition, method of use and curable glass fiber compositions
    Patent number: 5505998
    Abstract: Described is an acidic glass fiber binding composition comprising an aqueous soluble phenol formaldehyde resin having low free formaldehyde, an effective amount of a formaldehyde scavenger, and an effective amount of a strong aqueous soluble acid, wherein the composition has an acidic pH and the solids content ranges from about 1 to about 30% by weight of the total composition. Also described is a method of binding glass fibers such as newly formed warm glass fibers at junctions of the fibers by applying the composition as described above to the fibers and then drying the composition. Also described are B-staged and C-staged glass fiber compositions having a alkylamine content less than 5 ppm.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 25, 1994
    Date of Patent: April 9, 1996
    Assignee: Schuller International, Inc.

  • Moldable fiber glass material
    Patent number: 4913956
    Abstract: A high density moldable fiber glass material is disclosed. The glass fiber is coated with a powdered and liquid binder to form the material wherein the glass fiber is 45-90% and the binder is 10-45% by weight. The binder content is itself comprised of 25-50% of liquid binder and 50-75% of powdered binder.
