Robert A. Breyer has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Decorative wood composite products and adhesive compositions
    Publication number: 20050171245
    Abstract: Adhesive compositions useful for making decorative wood composite products contain a surfactant, particularly a neutralized tall oil fatty acid, and a thermosetting resin. Use of such adhesive compositions significantly reduces the incidence of surface pinholes in the products while using a smaller amount of the resin.
    Type: Application
