  • Flame and smoke spread retardant molding compounds and components molded from these compounds
    Patent number: 8487040
    Abstract: HVAC and building and construction components are molded from novel compositions that meet the flame spread and smoke index, as well as the molding, safety, strength, and aesthetic requirements for this use. These compounds are based on a polyester resin and more specifically can be an polypropylene glycol dicyclopentadiene copolymerized with maleic anhydride, a low profile additive and hydroxy ethyl methacrylate monomer with additional additives including an appropriate catalyst package, a mold release agent, a thickening agent, a loading of aluminum hydroxide which is from about 40 to 65% by weight, and having a loading of glass fibers of from about 10 to about 25%.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 30, 2007
    Date of Patent: July 16, 2013
    Assignee: Premix Inc.
    Inventors: Thomas J. Cebasek, Michael Gruskiewicz, Steven Ted Searl
  • Antimicrobial flame and smoke spread retardant molding compounds and components molded from these compounds
    Patent number: 8058324
    Abstract: HVAC and building and construction components are molded from novel compositions that meet the flame spread and smoke index, as well as the molding, safety, strength, and aesthetic requirements for this use. In a further embodiment of the invention, these compounds also help to promote better indoor air quality in that they inhibit the growth of microbial contaminants within and even on the surface of products molded therefrom.
