  • Patent number: 6645631
    Abstract: A flame retardant phosphorus element-containing epoxy resin composition substantially free of halogen, including: (I) a non-halogenated epoxy resin material selected from: (A) a non-halogenated phosphorus element-containing epoxy resin; (B) a mixture of: (1) a non-halogenated, non-phosphorus element-containing epoxy resin, and (2) a phosphorus element-containing compound; or (C) the reaction product of: (1) a non-halogenated epoxy resin; and (2) a phosphorus element-containing compound; or (D) a combination of two or more of components (A) to (C); and (II) (A) a multi-functional phenolic crosslinking agent having a hydroxy functionality of at least 2; (B) a material which forms a multifunctional phenolic crosslinking agent having a hydroxy functionality of at least 2, upon heating or (C) a mixture of components (A) and (B); in an amount of from about 50% to about 150% of the stoichiometric amount needed to cure the epoxy resin.

  • Patent number: 6622510
    Abstract: A method of freezing and dispensing a beer product comprises providing beer in a sealed, refrigerated storage container under pressure; feeding beer from the storage container to a sealed freezing chamber through a sealed delivery system; freezing the beer in the chamber; and dispensing frozen beer from the chamber. The frozen beer product preferably has a slush consistency and a density of about 50% to about 90% of the density of unfrozen beer, a temperature of between about 23° and 27° F. and a volume reduction in a filled 14 fluid ounce plastic cup sitting in 70° F. room for 30 minutes or less than 10%. A refrigerated cabinet for supplying beer comprises an insulated beer storage compartment; a refrigeration system comprising a compressor, a condenser, a thermal expansion device and an evaporator; a pressurized carbon dioxide tank in a separate, non-refrigerated compartment; and a fan for circulating air within the insulated beer storage compartment.

  • Patent number: 6353080
    Abstract: A flame retardant epoxy resin composition containing not more than 10% by wgt. of halogen, comprising an epoxy resin, stated concentrations of phosphoric acid ester, nitrogen—containing cross-linking agent having an amine functionality of at least 2 and a catalyst capable of promoting the reaction of the phosphoric acid ester with the epoxy resin and promoting the curing of the epoxy resin with the cross-linker, and optionally a Lewis acid in a stated amount.
