  • Patent number: 6387388
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pesticidal composition of a water-soluble pesticide and processes for its manufacture. More specifically, the invention relates to a soluble granule (SG) pesticidal formulation comprising a water-soluble pesticide and a water-soluble filler. The present invention provides a pesticidal formulation with efficacy equal to the corresponding liquid formulation, yet with improved handler safety, such as lower eye irritation.

  • Patent number: 4064922
    Abstract: A pneumatic tire of the tubeless type, embodying a layer of puncture sealant composition based on:A. a major proportion of a low molecular weight elastomer (e.g., depolymerized natural rubber) in admixture with a tackifying or plasticizing substance (e.g., a resinous reaction product of a mineral oil purification residue with formaldehyde) andB. a minor proportion of a high molecular weight elastomer (e.g., cis-polyisoprene);Containing a crosslinking agent (e.g., tetra-n-butyl titanate) in an amount sufficient to give a partial cure.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 3981342
    Abstract: A pneumatic tire of the tubeless type, embodying a layer of puncture sealant composition based on a major proportion of low molecular weight liquid elastomer with a minor proportion of a high molecular weight elastomer, containing a crosslinking agent in an amount sufficient to give a partial cure. An example of the composition of the invention is a blend of 60 parts of depolymerized natural rubber and 40 parts of cis-polyisoprene, partially crosslinked by the action of 6 parts of tetra-n-butyl titanate so as to provide a gel content of about 40%.
