Abstract: Described herein are one-component spray foam compositions having a low post post-expansion rate. Also described herein are methods of making and using one-component spray foam compositions having a low post-expansion rate. Also described herein are dispensers for dispensing the one-component spray foam compositions having a low post-expansion rate. Compositions and methods in accordance with the present disclosure are useful in a wide variety of applications, and are particularly useful in construction applications.

Abstract: Described herein is a texture material dispensing system that includes a foldable handle and trigger. The texture material dispensing system may be used for dispensing a texture material onto a target surface, such as a ceiling.

Abstract: Described herein is a texture material dispensing system. The system includes a container assembly, an actuator assembly, and an outlet assembly. The container assembly includes a container and a valve assembly. The actuator assembly includes a trigger actuator pivotably attached to an actuator housing. The outlet assembly includes a flexible tube fluidically connected to the trigger actuator and an adjustable outlet opening. The adjustable outlet opening is adjustable between a position that is aligned substantially parallel to a container assembly axis and a position that is aligned substantially non-parallel to a container assembly axis. Also described herein is a method of using the texture material dispensing system for dispensing a texture material onto a target surface.

Abstract: A cover and trigger assembly is provided that includes having a valve that can be actuated for dispensing the contents of the can through an outlet of the valve. The assembly includes an annular component having a helical surface is secured to the can, and a cover coupled to the annular component. The cover has an opening through which a trigger extends, and the cover is rotatable relative to the helical surface on the annular component for rotatably raising or lowering the cover relative to the annular component. The raising or lowering of the cover respectively prohibits or permits movement of the trigger member to actuate the valve, thereby controlling dispensing operation of the valve.

Abstract: A valve assembly for an aerosol can comprises a valve conduit having an inlet, an outlet, a valve seat in the flow path between the inlet and the outlet, and a resilient mounting of a valve member that permits relative movement of the valve member relative to the valve conduit. The valve member further comprises a valve element that is movable to sealingly engaging the valve seat, and a stem projecting from the valve member through the outlet of the valve conduit. During the movement of the valve member relative to the valve conduit, the movable tapered sealing surface associated with the valve member is configured to engage and concentrically align with a tapered valve seat on the valve conduit to establish an effective seal against the valve seat.

Abstract: A dispensing applicator for reactive components is provided that comprises a valve assembly having at least two flow paths being separate from each other such that at least a first component in a first flow path and at least a second component in a second flow path may not mix in the valve assembly, where there is a passage in each of the at least two flow paths that have one or more exit openings in a peripheral wall of each passage. The dispensing applicator further comprises a resilient flow control band surrounding the periphery of each passage and the one or more exit openings in the peripheral wall of the each passage to prevent cross-over flow of one component into the flow path of the other component. The resilient flow control bands may be positioned anywhere along the flow path leading to a mixing chamber for the reactive components.

Abstract: The inventive dispenser comprises a cap and dispenser tube assembly for delivering a foamed product below the surface of a liquid through the dispenser tube. The dispenser tube pivots between a dispensing position and a non-dispensing stowed position, which allows for convenient cleaning of the dispensing tube. The cap further comprises a removable portion between a first and second section of the cap that restricts movement to prevent operation of the dispensing valve until the removable portion is detached by the consumer. The cap also includes a tamper resistant removable pull tab for securing the dispenser tube in the stowed position until the pull tab is detached by the consumer.
