Patent number: 9682511Abstract: Pressurized air is conveyed through a manifold into contact with the first member via apertures having hole diameters of from 0.8 to 2.5 mm that are spaced apart at a distance of from 10 to 30 mm along the manifold to achieve a turbulent air flow pattern with a Reynolds number of greater than 2200 at a temperature of between 150 and 315° C. and at an air pressure between 0.5 and 10 pounds per square inch (psi) over ambient pressure onto the outer surfaces of the first member and the second member for heat curing a curable adhesive between the members to achieve adhesive cure in 60 to 90 seconds and free of any bond-line read-out visible to an unaided normal human eye.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2014Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: CONTINENTAL STRUCTURAL PLASTICS, INC.Inventors: Probir Kumar Guha, Brad Haskell, Hugh C.

Patent number: 9663608Abstract: A molding composition formulation includes a thermoset cross-linkable 12 to 45 micron polymeric resin. Hollow glass microspheroids are present from 2 to 12 total weight percent. An article formed from such a composition is further strengthened by the addition of a surface activating agent bonded to the surface of the glass microspheroids. Conventional particulate fillers when added to an inventive formulation provide enhanced performance when the filler particle has a size sufficiently small to insert within adjacent microspheroid interstitial voids. An unsaturated polyester resin so formed is particularly well suited for the formation of sheet molding compound formulations.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2014Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: Continental Structural Plastics, Inc.Inventors: Brian A. Beach, Probir K. Guha, Brad Haskell, Michael J. Siwajek

Patent number: 7700670Abstract: A molding composition formulation includes a thermoset cross-linkable polymeric resin. Glass microspheroids are present such that upon cure of the resin the resulting article has a linear shrinkage of less than ±0.06% and a density of less than 1.65. An article formed from such a composition is further strengthened by the addition of a surface activating agent bonded to the surface of the glass microspheroids. Conventional particulate fillers when added to an inventive formulation provide enhanced performance when the filler particle has a size sufficiently small to insert within adjacent microspheroid interstitial voids.

Patent number: 7524547Abstract: Sheet molding composition formulation includes a thermoset cross-linkable polymeric resin. A moisture reducing polymeric additive includes at least one of polystyrene; poly C1-C4 alykylmethacrylate; a copolymer of styrene with at least one of butadiene, acrylonitrile and vinyl chloride; or a combination of polystyrene, polyaklymethacrylate and or a styrene copolymer. Moisture reducing polymeric additive is present within the formulation from between 1 and 20 total weight percent. An article formed from such a sheet molding composition formulation defines an article shape and has a surface that sets the article shape with less than 0.5 total weight percent water after 96 hours exposure and 100° F. 100% humidity. The article shape is amendable to receiving a vapor barrier coating applied to the articles shape surface. A powder prime coating over lies the barrier coating and achieves surface finish results comparable to article shapes formed of steel.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2006Date of Patent: April 28, 2009Assignee: Continential Structural Plastics, Inc.Inventors: Brian A. Beach, Brad Haskell, Michael J. Siwajek, Probir K. Guha
