  • Patent number: 4371493
    Abstract: Silicone putty-like substance is made by mixing dimethyl silicone gum with a boron compound (e.g., boric acid) and a reinforcing filler, and making sheet stocks of the mixture. The sheet stocks are placed on perforated trays in a heating oven and heated at a temperature of about 350.degree. F. to about 500.degree. F. for several hours. The volatiles produced during heating (cooking) of the sheets stocks are removed from the oven by passing air through the perforated trays in order to obtain high bouncing putty which minimal amount of inferior product.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 1, 1983
    Inventor: Maurice A. Minuto
  • Patent number: 4264369
    Abstract: A novel composition of matter for use as image transfer medium in the form of a viscous or semi-viscous solution. The composition basically consists of water, a thixotropic agent (e.g., hydroxyethyl cellulose), sulfonamide (e.g., toluene sulfonamide), 2-ethyl 1,3-hexanediol and propylene glycol ester of sebacic acid.

  • Patent number: 4242137
    Abstract: A novel composition of matter for use as image transfer medium in the form of a viscous or semi-viscous solution. The composition basically consists of water, a thixotropic agent (hydroxyethyl cellulose) and a water-soluble glycol (1,3-butylene glycol) and includes, optionally, a water-insoluble glycol (hexanediol) to enhance the color of printed color matter. Images imprinted on putty-like substances may be transferred to surfaces which have been coated with such compositions.
