Patent number: 5302455Abstract: A stabilized powdered endothermic blowing agent which is a mixture of polycarboxylic acid and an inorganic carbonate, the polycarboxylic acid and the inorganic carbonate each having been surface treated with a component which prevents water from being absorbed thereby. The blowing agent is incorporated into a composition for producing foamed products. Additives may be added to the composition which function in conjunction with the blowing agent to cause surface migration of the additives and/or improve weld line strength of the foamed products.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 1992Date of Patent: April 12, 1994Assignee: J.

Patent number: 5250279Abstract: An improved method for the production of synthetic hydrotalcites having high purity (99+%) and small particle size (<2 microns) is disclosed. This method used inexpensive and available reactants and is suitable for commercial scale production. A source of magnesium, such as magnesium hydroxide; a source of aluminum from a mixture of alumina trihydrate and an alkali metal aluminate; and a source of carbonate, such as sodium bicarbonate, are reacted under hydrothermal conditions at a temperature of between 160.degree.-200.degree. C. to produce synthetic hydrotalcite.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1991Date of Patent: October 5, 1993Assignee: J. M. Huber CorporationInventors: Barry W. Preston, John A. Kosin, Claude R. Andrews

Patent number: 5075087Abstract: A phosphate-containing synthetic hydrotalcite of the following empirical formula:xMgO.Al.sub.2 O.sub.3.yPO.sub.4.zH.sub.2 Owherein, x, y and z are integers indicating the number of moles present of MgO, PO.sub.4 and H.sub.2 O, respectively. The phosphate-containing hydrotalcite being prepared by the addition of sufficient phosphoric acid to the reaction mixture to liberate carbon dioxide. The phosphate-containing hydrotalcite improves the flame retardant characteristics by providing char promotion to the system.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 1989Date of Patent: December 24, 1991Assignee: J. M. Huber CorporationInventors: John A. Kosin, Barry W. Preston, David N. Wallace

Patent number: 5055284Abstract: A method for producing amorphous aluminocarbonate compounds which comprises continuously recirculating a first aqueous solution from a reaction vessel through a recycle system and injecting a gas comprising carbon dioxide into the first solution at a turbulent area located in the recycle system. A second aqueous solution is added to the first solution while the gas injection is continued, and the pH of the resulting mixture is maintained in the approximate range of from 8 to 10. The gas injection is discontinued when the entire amount of the second solution has been added to the first solution, in order to allow further precipitation of the amorphous compound. The method is particularly adapted for producing amorphous sodium aluminocarbonate and sodium magnesium aluminocarbonate.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 1987Date of Patent: October 8, 1991Assignee: J.
