Abstract: A rolled sheet dispensing cabinet for storing and dispensing rolled sheets includes a housing having a top, a bottom, a front, a back, and opposing sides defining an internal space. Each of a plurality of rods is coupled to and extends between the opposing sides. Each of a plurality of slots is positioned in the front and extends from proximate to each opposing side. The slots are parallel to the top and the bottom. Each slot is positioned proximate to a respective rod. The rods are positioned in the internal space and are configured for insertion into tubular cores of rolled sheets. The slots are positioned in the front and are configured for insertion of leading edges of the rolled sheets. The leading edges protrude from the front of the housing and are configured for grasping by a hand of a user to extract a portion of the rolled sheet.

Abstract: The invention can provide or facilitate systems and methods for feeding a slurry and, in particular, to systems and methods for treating wastewater streams with a slurry having periodic flushing of conduits.

Abstract: A prepreg which is capable of being cured-in-place into a solid surface by irradiation, heating or a combination of the two is prepared. The cured-in-place solid surfaces can be used as veneer cladding for rigid substrates such as floor and wall tiles, kitchen and bath counter tops, sinks, cabinet door veneers, bath surrounds, architectural surfaces such as columns and roofs and the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to reinforced composite resin formulations used for molding body panels for transportation vehicles. Particularly, but not by way of limitation, the disclosure relates to low-density thermosetting composite molding compounds used to mold body panels and having a density of less than 1.6 grams/cubic centimeter and excellent surface smoothness without the use of hollow glass microspheres.

Abstract: An association complex formed in a liquid environment from a metal-based chromium (VI) reducer and a non-lignosulfonate-based complexing agent is introduced into cement clinker or hydratable cement particles. In preferred embodiments, the formation of the association complex provides storage stability to the chromium reducer within the cement, such that the level of chromium (VI) after water is added to the cement remains less than 2 ppm for certain duration after mixing with water and without the necessity for further additions of chromium reducer during said duration (e.g., 26-84 or more days after addition). Compositions having the association complex are also described.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to ion-conducting, nitrile containing sulfonated polymeric materials formed by the direct polymerization of sulfonated monomers and aromatic nitrile monomers. These nitrile containing sulfonated polymers may be used to form membranes that have application in fuel cell and ion exchange technologies. In particular, the membranes may be used in hydrogen, direct methanol, reformate, and other direct oxidation fuel cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to resin formulations for sheet molding compounds. Particularly, but not by way of limitation, the disclosure relates to low-density thermosetting sheet molding compounds (SMC) comprising a treated inorganic clay, a thermosetting resin, a low profile agent, a reinforcing agent, a low-density filler, and substantially the absence of calcium carbonate. The thermosetting SMC are used to prepare exterior and structural thermoset articles, e.g. auto parts and panels, etc that have Class A Surface Quality.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to resin formulations for sheet molding compounds. Particularly, but not by way of limitation, the invention relates to low-density thermosetting sheet molding compounds (SMC) comprising an organic-modified, inorganic clay, a thermosetting resin, a low profile agent, a reinforcing agent, a low-density filler, and substantially the absence of calcium carbonate. The present disclosure relates particularly to the use of alternative reactive monomers present as aromatic, multiethylenically-unsaturated compounds that aid thermosetting SMC in yielding exterior and structural thermoset articles, e.g. auto parts, panels, etc that have Class A Surface Quality.
