  • Patent number: 8100179
    Abstract: The methods described herein generally relate to preparing and delivering a fluid mixture to a confined volume, specifically an annular volume located between two concentrically oriented casing strings within a hydrocarbon fluid producing well. The fluid mixtures disclosed herein are useful in controlling pressure in localized volumes. The fluid mixtures comprise at least one polymerizable monomer and at least one inhibitor. The processes and methods disclosed herein allow the fluid mixture to be stored, shipped and/or injected into localized volumes, for example, an annular volume defined by concentric well casing strings.

  • Patent number: 7638582
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermoformable sheet, for example, an acrylic sheet, comprising particles proximate to the top surface, wherein the textured sheet, when thermoformed, provides a low-gloss, textured surface that is less sensitive to marring, blemishes (including blemishes resulting from the mold), household wear and tear, and visibly reduces the appearance of oil deposits on its surface.
