Abstract: A foam composition and method of making the same. The foam of the present invention comprises a mixture of glutarate ester plasticizer, adipate ester plasticizer, alcohol carboxylic acid ester, cell stabilizer, barium/zinc activator stabilizer, potassium/zinc activator stabilizer or zinc stabilizer, azodicarbonamide blowing agent, low-fogging vinyl dispersion resin, vinyl blending resin, and black acrylic pigment dispersion. The foam is made by the process of mixing the ingredients until a homogenous liquid mixture is present, de-airing the homogeneous liquid mixture, casting the liquid mixture on a non-fogging release-coated surface, expanding the cast liquid mixture by exposing it to an elevated temperature for a prescribed duration of time, and then either cooling the expanded mixture and winding it into rolls, or coating the stabilized composition with pressure sensitive adhesive, cooling it, and then winding it into rolls.

Abstract: A plasticized vinyl film which is formulated for use as a stencil in stonecutting, sand blasting and other etching type procedures. The film includes, in addition to resin and plasticizer components, a quantity of ceramic fibers sufficient to impart a sufficient strength to the film so that it may be used for its intended purpose.

Abstract: A foam spacer which is usable as a cork substitute in the base cushion layer of a glass spacer. The spacer, which is adapted to replace natural cork spacers is preferably laminated to a tack layer or otherwise adhered to a surface. The spacer is formed from a plasticized foamable resin which includes a quantity of incorporated reinforcing agents.

Abstract: Expandable foam which includes a foamable polyvinylchloride (PVC) base resin combined with a glutarate ester plasticizer and stabilizing agents. The compound is cast on a release liner and heated to expand the compound into a foamed state. The resulting foam when coated with adhesive is particularly useful in adhering to plastic materials.

Abstract: A foam strip which adheres to the surface of glass and other smooth objects to enhance gripping. The foam is formed from a highly plasticized foamable resin cast on the glossy surface of a release liner to enhance adhesive properties.

Abstract: A spacer member for positioning between fragile objects, such as glass panels, during shipment. The spacer includes a tack layer of sufficient adhesive properties to allow the spacer to adhere to the surface of the fragile object without the use of a surface tape.
