Patent number: 8791186Abstract: A method of determining that a thermoplastic was insufficiently dried before forming into a molded plastic part. The method comprises preparing a mixture of a thermoplastic polymer and an off-gassing compound, wherein the off-gassing compound is selected to release all water of hydration in response to target drying conditions specified for the thermoplastic polymer. The mixture is dried at actual drying conditions, and then heated to reduce the viscosity of the thermoplastic polymer and allow the mixture to flow. The mixture is then made to flow into a mold to form a plastic part at a molding temperature, wherein the molding temperature will cause any remaining water of hydration in the off-gas sing compound to off-gas and form surface irregularities in the plastic part. Non-limiting examples of the off-gassing compound include hydrated metal halides and ionic hydrates.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2011Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Joseph Kuczynski, Melissa K. Miller, Heidi D. Williams, Jing Zhang

Aluminum/alkyline or alkali/titanium containing polyesters having improved reheat, color and clarity
Patent number: 8791187Abstract: A polyester composition containing: a) aluminum atoms; and b) alkaline earth atoms or alkali metal atoms or alkali compound residues such as lithium atoms; and c) particles comprising titanium, zirconium, vanadium, niobium, hafnium, tantalum, chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, iron, or nickel atoms or combinations thereof, where the particles improve the reheat rate of the polyester composition. The polyester polymer compositions may also contain phosphorus catalyst deactivators/stabilizers. The polyester compositions and the articles made from the compositions such as bottle preforms and stretch blow molded bottles have improved reheat rate while maintaining low haze, high L*, a b* below 3, and have low levels of acetaldehyde. In the process for making the polyester polymer, the polymer melt is polycondensed in the presence of a) and b), with the particles c) added in a melt phase process or added to the polymer in an injection molding machine or extruder.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2011Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: Grupo Petrotemex, S.A. de C.V.Inventors: Donna Rice Quillen, Rodney Scott Armentrout, Mary Therese Jernigan, Steven Lee Stafford, Zhiyong Xia -
