  • Publication number: 20060217487
    Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide a phosphorous-containing siliceous material having a specific permittivity of not more than 3.5. The phosphorus-containing silazane composition according to the present invention is characterized by comprising a polyalkylsilazane and at least one phosphorus compound in an organic solvent. A phosphorus-containing siliceous film may be formed by coating the composition onto a substrate to form a film which is then prebaked at a temperature of 50 to 300° C. and is then baked in an inert atmosphere at a temperature of 300 to 700° C. The phosphorus compound according to the present invention is preferably a pentavalent phosphoric ester or phosphazene compound.

  • Patent number: 7051766
    Abstract: A pipe liner bag everting nozzle is provided for allowing an operator to freely access a manhole during a lining operation. A pipe liner bag everting nozzle comprises a guide tube fixing end for fixing one end of a guide tube, and a pipe liner bag fixing end for fixing a folded end of an uneverted pipe liner bag passed through the guide tube, wherein the guide tube fixing end has a diameter smaller than a diameter of the pipe liner bag fixing end. Since a guide tube having a smaller diameter than that of a pipe line to be repaired (or the pipe liner bag) can be used, a sufficient gap is formed between the guide tube and the manhole, thereby allowing the operator to freely access the manhole during the lining operation for inspection and confirmation of a lining situation.

  • Patent number: 6296729
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a pipe liner bag is provided for reliably sealing a seam of a resin absorbent material with simple operations without forming pin holes through the resin absorbent material. The pipe liner bag comprises a tubular resin absorbent material having an outer surface covered with a highly air-tight plastic film and a hardenable resin impregnated in the tubular resin absorbent material. A plastic film is welded on a surface of a strip-like resin absorbent material. The plastic film has a width smaller than the resin absorbent material which has sewing margins in both end portions in a width direction. The resin absorbent material is folded such that the plastic film is exposed. Both edges of the resin absorbent material in the width direction are laid one on top of the other. The overlapping portions of the resin absorbent material is lock sewed to form a tubular resin absorbent material.

  • Patent number: 6254709
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a pipe liner bag which is composed of a tubular resin absorbent material having an outer surface covered with a highly air-tight plastic film and a hardenable resin impregnated in the tubular resin absorbent material. The method involves folding a strip-shaped resin absorbent material and aligning both ends thereof in the width direction, straight sewing overlapped portions to form a tubular resin absorbent material while leaving a sewing margin, turning the tubular resin absorbent material inside out such that a previous inner surface thereof appears outside, and welding or adhering a plastic film entirely or partially on the outer surface of the tubular resin absorbent material to air-tight seal the outer surface. The method can reduce a time required for a joining operation and simplifying a sealing operation after both ends of the strip-shaped resin absorbent material have been joined.

  • Patent number: 6158473
    Abstract: A branch pipe liner bag immune to damage caused by a cutter is provided. In the branch pipe liner bag having a flange formed at an end of a hardenable resin impregnated bag which comprises a tubular resin-absorbent material impregnated with an unhardened liquid hardenable resin, a cylindrical anti-piercing protector 3 is embedded adjacent to the flange. According to a pipe lining method implemented using the branch pipe liner bag according to the present invention, the branch pipe liner bag adjacent to the flange is, after a branch pipe is lined, protected by the anti-piercing protector, and therefore, in a piercing work thereafter of a main pipe liner bag, the branch pipe liner bag is immune from damage caused by a cutter, thereby eliminating a problem such as infiltration of the underground water into the main pipe from a damaged portion.
