  • Patent number: 4654144
    Abstract: An improved process for the wet oxidation of malodorous gases obtained from sewage sludge drying operations is provided. Organic-enriched water having an oxygen demand of at least 5 mg per liter is utilized for the process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 3, 1986
    Date of Patent: March 31, 1987
    Assignee: National Distillers and Chemical Corporation
    Inventors: Hubert J. Sharkey, James A. Merritt
  • Patent number: 4628117
    Abstract: An improved process for the ozonization of .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated cyclohexanones, most notably isophorone and piperatone, to produce 5-ketoalkanoic acids is provided. For the process, the .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated cyclohexanone is ozonized in an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid participating solvent which may optionally contain water and a soluble manganous salt.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 1985
    Date of Patent: December 9, 1986
    Assignee: National Distillers and Chemical Corporation
    Inventor: Hubert J. Sharkey
  • Patent number: 4282346
    Abstract: Copolyamides derived from a mixture of short-chain and long-chain saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, piperazine and a polyoxyalkylene diamine are excellent hot melt adhesives useful with a variety of substrates. These thermoplastic copolyamide resins are particularly useful adhesives for vinyl materials and are resistant to creep.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 26, 1979
    Date of Patent: August 4, 1981
    Assignee: Emery Industries, Inc.
    Inventor: Hubert J. Sharkey

    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 8, 1979
    Date of Patent: October 21, 1980
    Assignee: Emery Industries, Inc.
    Inventor: Hubert J. Sharkey
  • Patent number: 4122229
    Abstract: Copolyamides derived from mixed acids (a polymeric fatty acid and short-chain dibasic acid) and mixed amines (a polyoxyalkylene diamine and a short-chain diamine) are provided. These thermoplastic resin compositions are excellent reinforcing adhesives for flexible substrates and are particularly useful as box-toe construction resins.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 6, 1977
    Date of Patent: October 24, 1978
    Assignee: Emery Industries, Inc.
    Inventors: Mark L. Mitchell, III, Hubert J. Sharkey

  • Patent number: 4032549
    Abstract: This invention relates to reactive liquid polyamides derived from poly-basic acids and amine residues obtained as by-products from the process for the hydrogenation of adiponitrile to hexamethylenediamine. By use of these amine residues it is possible to obtain liquid polyamide products having low amine values and manageable viscosities. The liquid reactive polyamides are useful for a variety of applications, for example, they can be blended with thermoplastic polyamide resins to impart desirable properties thereto.
