Publication number: 20140262267Abstract: A method for sealing a wellbore around a pipe placed within it is disclosed. The method includes providing to a wellbore site a pre-mixed pre-polymer sealant solution and storing the sealant until use. The sealant material may be injected into wellbore in the space exterior to the pipe so that the sealant material contacts at least some portion of the pipe exterior surface and the wellbore interior surface. Upon injection, the sealant material may begin to cure from contact with moisture in the ground, the curing causing the sealant material to release a gas and form a sealing foam into the extra-pipe space. The sealing foam may then be permitted to cure to form a flexible and stable seal.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Inventors: Vincent Eugene Fustos, Ronald J. Janoski

Publication number: 20100011685Abstract: Sealant assemblies and methods are provided for sealing an interface between a surface and a projection extending from the surface. The sealant assembly includes a flexible member circumscribing an area to form a sealant pocket and a filling sealant at least partially filling the sealant pocket. The filling sealant and the flexible member comprise substantially the same material.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2009Publication date: January 21, 2010Applicant: ADCO PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: Ronald J. Janoski, Mark C. Rundo, Jonathan A. Karas, Michael Lewis Kerman, Nicholas John Berard, Wayne Mazorow, Paul E. Snowwhite, Paul Ruede

Patent number: 5421876Abstract: An organoclay in which a quaternary long chain fatty amine is ionically bonded to clay platelets is found to function both as a filler or thickener as well as a compatibilizer in an asphaltic polyurethane (PUR) dispersion. When a PUR prepolymer is mixed into a homogenized blend of asphalt and organoclay under high shear, a phase inversion occurs the result of which is that a microdispersion of asphalt particles (preferably 1 .mu.m-44 .mu.m) becomes the dispersed phase which is uniformly scattered throughout the PUR prepolymer (the continuous phase). This dispersion is found to be an excellent adhesive, particularly for roofing components which can be secured without using conventional fasteners, and it is stable and moisture-curable to afford, when cured, an elastomer having excellent adhesion to surfaces exposed outdoors. It is also user-friendly because it is solvent-free. The asphalt is treated to react all functional groups it may have because they may react with a functional group of the PUR prepolymer.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 1993Date of Patent: June 6, 1995Assignee: Tremco, Inc.Inventor: Ronald J. Janoski

Patent number: 5319008Abstract: A moisture-curable, substantially solvent-free and anhydrous blend of a bituminous material such as asphalt and a liquid prepolymer is disclosed, which blend when cured, results in an elastomer having excellent adhesion to surfaces exposed outdoors. The stability of the blend derives from asphalt being microdispersed in a dispersed phase within a continuous phase of the liquid prepolymer so that particles of asphalt are in the size range from 0.5 .mu.m to 100 .mu.m. The asphalt is treated to react all functional groups it may have because they may react with a functional group of the liquid prepolymer. The prepolymer is a polyurethane, a terpolymer of ethylene-propylene-diene, or a silicone. The microdispersion is stably maintained by a compatibilizer having opposed substantially polar and non-polar terminal portions, present in an amount in the range from 0.01 to 5 parts per 100 parts of the blend. The compatibilizer is chosen from (A) an ester of a C.sub.2 -C.sub.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1992Date of Patent: June 7, 1994Assignee: Tremco, Inc.Inventor: Ronald J. Janoski

Patent number: 5253461Abstract: The present invention relates to low slope roofing systems, particularly in commercial (as opposed to residential) roofing applications. More specifically, the fastener-free roofing system of the present invention is directed to the use of a curing adhesive composition which will simply and safely secure roofing insulation to a roofing deck without the need for mechanical fasteners.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1990Date of Patent: October 19, 1993Assignee: Tremco, Inc.Inventors: Ronald J. Janoski, Gregory Rudolph, Rick J. Gibson, Donald C. Portfolio

Patent number: 5254167Abstract: An apparatus (10) for applying fluid roof panel adhesive to a substrate includes a holding tank (12) for holding a supply of adhesive vertically above the substrate. The tank is supported by a pair of spaced wheels (14) and has a handle (16) to enable moving the device over the substrate. Openings (32) in a lower wall (30) of the tank enable adhesive to flow onto the substrate. Blocking members (36) associated with each opening are movable in response to the position of a lever (20) to enable or prevent flow of adhesive through the openings. Movement of the apparatus over the substrate provides for controlled deposition of uniformly spaced beads of adhesive suitable for holding roof panels to the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 1991Date of Patent: October 19, 1993Assignee: Tremco, Inc.Inventors: Ronald J. Janoski, Richard J. Gibson, Donald C. Portfolio, Gregory J. Rudolph, Todd P. Hadaway

Patent number: 5008311Abstract: The present invention relates to a compatibalizing agent useful in compatibalizing a substantially non-polar compound, such as asphalt, with a substantially polar organic compound, such as an isocyanate prepolymer. The compatibalizing agent consisting of a polymer unit, or of two such units being either identical or different linked together by an ester, carbon or ether bond, said unit having the following formula:CH.sub.3 --(C.sub.n H.sub.2n)--R.sub.1wherein:n is 4 or more, andR.sub.1 is COOH, COO.sup.- M.sup.+, COOR.sub.2 or R.sub.2,wherein:M is a metal, andR.sub.2 is a substantially saturated organic chain having a backbone substantially comprising carbon-carbon, carbon-oxygen, or carbon-nitrogen linkages, or combinations thereof, wherein the backbone's pendent constituents are either --H or --OH and wherein at least one pendent constitutent is --OH.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 1989Date of Patent: April 16, 1991Assignee: Tremco IncorporatedInventor: Ronald J.

Patent number: 4923348Abstract: A protective cap for fastener heads includes a preformed member formed of a naturally tacky compound of unvulcanized butyl rubber, a reinforcing layer of a non-woven polyester fabric, and a silicone-coated polyethylene release liner. The preformed member has a dome-shaped central portion and a surrounding generally flat annular flange. The reinforcing layer of the polyester fabric is disposed over a top surface of the preformed member to form a homogeneous cap construction, and the release liner covers the tacky bottom surface of the preformed member to prevent the cap from adhering to surfaces until ready for use. A plurality of the protective caps are formed in a manipulatable sheet unit and are maintained thereon by the natural tackiness of the unvulcanized butyl rubber compound.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 1989Date of Patent: May 8, 1990Assignee: Tremco IncorporatedInventors: Ben J. Carlozzo, Ronald J. Janoski, James Sterk, Mark C. Rundo
