  • Patent number: 5732952
    Abstract: This invention relates to a game of skill wherein baseball-shaped spheres are thrown or tossed at open buckets or containers from a starting area removed from the buckets. A score is attained by depositing the sphere in the bucket. The buckets are of varying size and value; the largest bucket representing the lowest value and successively smaller buckets having an increasing value. Also, the necessary degree of skill may be enhanced by having each of the successively smaller buckets disposed at a distance further removed from the starting area, or the necessary degree of skill may be enhanced by a combination of bucket opening size and distance from the starting area.

  • Patent number: 5556914
    Abstract: This application is concerned with room temperature vulcanizing compositions useful as mould making materials which are formed by mixing an alpha, omega dihydroxy polysiloxane, a condensation polydimethylsiloxane, catalyst and a crosslinking agent which comprises a tri- or tetra-alkoxy silane or siloxane in which the alkoxy groups contain more than two carbon atoms. Moulds made with these materials on epoxy masters show improved usage; the improvement is related to the size of the alkoxy "leaving group" and the proportion of crosslinker and condensation catalyst.

  • Patent number: 4602078
    Abstract: Composition comprising the product obtained by mixing (A) a silanol-terminated polydiorganosiloxane; (B) a silicon compound having at least 3 silicon-bonded alkoxy or alkoxyalkoxy groups in the molecule; (C) a metal or organometal salt of a carboxylic acid; (D) a silane having silicon-bonded alkoxy or alkoxyalkoxy groups and a silicon-bonded group, --R'NHR, in which R' is alkylene and R represents H, alkyl or an aliphatic hydrocarbon group containing at least one amino group, and (E) a silane having silicon-bonded alkoxy or alkoxyalkoxy groups and a silicon-bonded group containing an epoxy group.The compositions cure to elastomers having improved adhesion to glass, aluminium and concrete and are suitable for use as sealants for buildings.
