  • Patent number: 8852401
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing fiberboard by preparing a fiber slurry mixture including containing cellulose fibers and water then atomizing a liquid bituminous material, such as asphalt. The liquid bituminous material is atomized by mixing it with a pressurized gas, such as compressed air, forming a mist comprising droplets of bituminous material having a diameter between 20 microns and 50 microns. A water spray solidifies the bituminous material droplets thereby forming bituminous particles which fall into the fiber slurry within the spray chamber. From there the slurry is sheared, dewatered, and dried, forming a finished fiberboard.

  • Patent number: 4495319
    Abstract: A concrete cure is provided which is totally water based and completely void of solvents. A moisture impermeable film is attained when the cure is applied to fresh concrete. The cure forms a barrier over the concrete allowing it to retain over 95% of the mixing water for a minimum of 72 hours when applied at the rate of 200 ft.sup.2 /gallon (5m.sup.2 /dm.sup.3). The concrete cure of the invention is a mixture of a hydrocarbon resin, emulsifying agents, paraffinic wax, and water. The cure may be provided in a clear or pigmented formulation. A method for making the concrete cure is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 4443578
    Abstract: A cold applied joint sealant usable for both portland cement and asphaltic concrete pavements, which comprises an asphalt/urethane formulation resulting from the mixture of a liquid butadiene polymer, containing predominantly primary terminal hydroxyl groups, with a urethane reactant of di- or polyisocyanate. The sealant has low urethane content and cures to provide a low modulus, high penetration, with 85%-95% resilience and zero flow. An initial set time of less than about 120 minutes is achieved, which permits vehicular traffic to be accommodated thereover soon after application.

  • Patent number: 4364975
    Abstract: A tank having a hinged top and sealing means is provided with a series of heaters mounted on the inside of the front, rear and side walls and also the bottom of the tank. A rack containing fiberboards placed in upright, spaced position is set on the bottom heaters and a solution of solvent and asphalt or the like is pumped into the tank, then removed. The top of the tank is sealed and a heating medium is pumped through the heaters, while a vacuum pump is started to produce a vacuum inside the tank and suction exerted for evaporating solvent. One or two condensers, between the tank and the vacuum pump, condense the solvent vapors for collection and reuse. With one condenser, an excess condensate tank is connected to the lower condensate section of the condenser. A valved pipe connecting with the pipe between a lower condensate section of the condenser and the vacuum pump is utilized to bleed air into the tank after treatment and may be used to control the initial vacuum applied.
