Patents by Inventor Harry M. Culbertson

Harry M. Culbertson has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 4157324
    Abstract: This invention relates to high ortho etherified resole resins. The resole resins are prepared by reacting under acidic conditions phenol with formaldehyde in the presence of a divalent electropositive metal. The resole resins are then etherified with an alcohol and dehydrated to less than 1 percent water. The novel high ortho etherified resole resins are useful in coating, bonding and adhesive compositions. Such resoles are readily curable with coreactive resins providing chemical and solvent resistance.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4022942
    Abstract: The invention relates to high ortho phenolic resole resins and varnishes. The phenolic resole resins are produced by reacting under acidic conditions formaldehyde with a phenol in the presence of a divalent electropositive metal ion. The resulting novel resole is then dissolved in organic solvent. The solutions are useful as varnishes in the manufacture of impregnated sheets, laminates and other reinforced plastics.
