  • Publication number: 20240247148
    Abstract: Compositions of matter for use as a roof coating are provided. The roof coating can be applied to any suitable roof of any building. When applied to a roof, the roof coating insulates the building's interior from some of the sun's thermal energy, which would otherwise radiate into the building and raise the interior temperature. The roof coating can therefore reduce energy consumption involved in cooling the building's interior. The roof coating demonstrates advantageous thermal insulation properties (e.g., low thermal conductivity) over a wide range of temperatures and when applied with minimal thickness. The provided roof coating demonstrates high reflectance, high emissivity, low thermal conductivity, low flame spread, high solar reflectance index (SRI) in the range of 100 to 120, and acts as a sealer and waterproofer, which all contribute to its desirable properties for use as a thermally insulating roof coating.

  • Publication number: 20240247173
    Abstract: A temperature-curable aminoplastic adhesive resin that is a (poly)-condensate of: (i) at least one aminoplast-forming chemical; (ii) 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), its oligomers and/or its isomers; and, (iii) at the least one second (poly-)condensable chemical. Composite boards, such as wood-based panels, can be produced using this adhesive resin. The production of the aminoplastic adhesive resin includes the reaction of urea with 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) and glyoxal. The adhesive resin can be used in the production of wood-based panels such as particleboards, fiberboards and products usually called, among others, plywood and/or blockboards.

  • Publication number: 20240247181
    Abstract: Carbonates, such as chalk and limestone, are rather soft minerals and may lose at least some mechanical integrity after undergoing stimulation. For instance, carbonate minerals may experience proppant embedment or asperity weakening after fracturing or matrix acidizing. Methods for hardening a carbonate mineral may comprise: introducing an aqueous carrier fluid comprising an ammonium phosphate salt into a subterranean formation comprising a carbonate mineral, and interacting the carbonate mineral with the ammonium phosphate salt to convert at least a portion of the carbonate mineral into a hydroxyapatite mineral. The subterranean formation may exhibit an increased hardness after forming the hydroxyapatite mineral. The ammonium phosphate salt may be diammonium hydrogen phosphate in some examples.
