Abstract: A moisture-cure, hybrid synthetic resin paste may be applied over an aperture formed in a wet surface to cover the aperture and form a waterproof barrier. In some examples, water may be flowing or even gushing through the aperture at the time that the paste is applied. The paste may be applied using a suitable hand tool such as a spatula.

Abstract: A relatively thick, rubberized adhesive tape is applied to an article to repair, patch, bond, seal, or waterproof the article, to join two or more articles, and/or to modify the appearance and/or physical properties of the article, such as by thermal insulation, shock resistance, vibration resistance, electrical insulation, and the like.

Abstract: An adhesive composition may be applied to a surface, such as plastic, metal, wood, stucco, plaster, brick, concrete, glass, rubber, tile, fiberglass, ceramic, porcelain, canvas, stone, or drywall. The adhesive-containing surface is then pressed into contact with a second surface to create a strong, watertight bond. The methods disclosed herein may be used to assemble and/or repair a variety of articles and structures, such as roofs, gutters, boats, kayaks, personal watercraft, canoes, rafts, inflatable articles such as toys, sporting equipment, and air mattresses, outdoor equipment, mobile homes, recreational vehicles, campers, garden hoses, low-pressure PVC and plumbing pipes, tents, vinyl awnings, covers and tarps, swimming pools, windows, doors, walls, seams, vents, air ducts, HVAC systems, and the like. Also disclosed herein are methods of testing the bonding strength of an adhesive, methods of affecting underwater repairs, and methods of assembling an all-terrain vehicle.

Abstract: Viscous liquid rubber compositions are applied to articles by brushing, rolling, pouring, or dipping to repair leaks or to modify the appearance and/or physical properties of the article, such as water-permeability, thermal insulation, shock resistance, vibration resistance, electrical insulation, and the like.

Abstract: Anti-slip coating compositions having improved optical properties, such that they can emit visible light in a dark or dimly lit environment, or otherwise in the presence of ultraviolet (UV) light, are disclosed. Coatings obtained from these compositions, as well as coated substrates treated with these coatings, are also described.

Abstract: Liquid rubber compositions are particularly formulated for use in repair or modification of various household items, hand tools, garden tools, cooking or eating utensils, sports equipment, motor vehicles, appliances, etc. The compositions may be applied by brushing, dipping, or coating. Once cured, the composition forms a durable, breathable, weatherproof barrier that is resistant to rain, snow, sun, wind, air moisture, UV degradation, and natural weathering over a wide temperature range. The composition contains a polyether having silane terminal groups, a mineral filler, a fluid carrier, a crosslinker, fumed silica and a catalyst in specific amounts. It can also contain a colorant.
