  • METHODS FOR FABRICATING SYNGAS COOLER PLATENS AND SYNGAS COOLER PLATENS
    Publication number: 20090130001
    Abstract: A method for fabricating a syngas cooler is provided. The method includes coupling a tube cage within the syngas cooler, and coupling a plurality of platens to the tube cage to facilitate steam production in the syngas cooler. At least a first platen has at least one of a length that is larger than a length of a second platen, a non-linear geometry, and an angular position that is oblique with respect to a wall of the syngas cooler.

  • Tap-mediated, rheology-modified polymers and preparation methods
    Publication number: 20080188623
    Abstract: The present invention yields a triallyl phosphate (TAP)-mediated, rheology-modified polymer being prepared in a reaction from a reaction mixture made from or containing (a) a free-radical, chain-scissionable organic polymer and (b) TAP, wherein the TAP-mediated, rheology-modified polymer has extensional viscosity at Hencky strains above one greater than that of the free-radical, chain-scissionable organic polymer and/or a Relaxation Spectra Index (RSI) greater than that of the free-radical, chain-scissionable organic polymer.

  • Process to produce silica-filled elastomeric compounds
    Patent number: 7238736
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for preparing a filled halobutyl elastomer, which includes mixing a halobutyl elastomer with at least one mineral filler and at least one phosphine modifier and optionally curing the filled elastomer with sulfur or other curative systems. Filled halobutyl elastomers prepared according to the present invention possess improved levels of filler dispersion which results in a reduction in the hardness of the compound and an increased tensile strength.
