The dispersion is usable in various fields of papermaking, non-woven fabric production, film and sheet production and woven fabric production, in those of dispersed adhesive production, and in those of metal processing, plastic processing, wood processing and stone processing.

  • Patent number: 5863611
    Abstract: A lead-free composition capable of being applied as a film and hardening to form a protective layer on the back of a mirror comprises a fluid organic resin and a corrosion inhibitor selected from a compound represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein the individual radicals R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 can be identical or different and are each hydrogen, an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, araliphatic or aromatic radical, and can be substituted or unsubstituted; A is hydrogen or C.sub.z --CR.sup.5 R.sup.6 CN; X, Y and Z are independently selected from 0-5; and R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are as defined for R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 above. To inhibit the corrosion of metallic film layers on mirrors, a mirror having a glass substrate layer and metallic film layer thereover should be obtained, after which the fluid organic resin coating system containing the aforementioned corrosion inhibitor is applied over the metallic film layer.

  • Patent number: 5835318
    Abstract: A disk cartridge is formed with a slidably mounted metallic shutter for opening and closing a disk access opening formed in the cartridge shell. A stock roll material for forming the shutter is formed of a sheet of metallic base material, such as aluminum, to which upper and lower film layer are applied. The upper film layer is formed of synthetic resin including a lubricant component and a coloring agent while the lower film layer is formed of a synthetic resin which is harder than that of the first film layer and to which no lubricant or coloring is added. The stock material is introduced to punching and bending processing apparatus such that the upper lubricant containing film layer contacts the punch die such that press oil need not be used during fabrication. Bending processing is carried out such that a U-shaped shutter is formed having the lubricant containing film layer at an inner surface thereof, and the harder lower film layer forms the outer surface.

  • Patent number: 5780409
    Abstract: Natural or synthetic wax dissolved in the continuous organic phase of an water-in-oil emulsion retards evaporation of water from a dispersed aqueous phase. An in situ prepared equilibrium mixture of benzyl alcohol, formic acid and benzyl formate emulsified with oleic hydroxyethyl imidazoline or similar oil soluble emulsifying agent is thickened with hydroxypropyl cellulose or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and contains 0.1 to 1.0% by weight paraffin wax with a melting point of 47.degree. to 65.degree. C. Wax dissolved in the organic phase retards evaporation of water, and formic acid or ammonia which are very volatile in comparison with benzyl alcohol forming the major component of the organic phase. A petroleum distillate is used to pre-wet a hydroxypropyl cellulose thickener and dissolve the wax.

  • Patent number: 5753349
    Abstract: A foil/composite sheet which either (1) is suitable for use in directly forming a holographic image or diffraction grating image on a document substrate or (2) has a holographic image or diffraction grating image embossed in the composite sheet such that a party producing the final document may hot stamp a chip containing the holographic image directly on a substrate forming the major portion of the final document. The composite sheet is characterized in that it has a sufficient degree of transparency to permit a person viewing the holographic image or diffraction grating image of such composite sheet or chip therefrom affixed to a printed substrate to readily see the printing through the holographic image or diffraction grating image.

  • Patent number: 5733638
    Abstract: A hot stamp material is provided which includes a base; an inner release layer; an intermediate layer composed at least one gold and silver coating and an outer adhesive layer composed of edible material, wherein the inner release layer together with the intermediate layer and the outer layer are laminated on the base. According to a feature of the present invention, the hot stamp material can further include an additional color layer. The color layer may interposed between the inner release layer and the intermediate layer or between the intermediate layer and the outer adhesive layer or on both sides of the intermediate layer. The hot stamp material is used to imprint a water soluble material with gold or silver.

  • Patent number: 5712042
    Abstract: Two liners are provided: one for containers with dry contents, one for containers with liquid contents.The liner for dry contents has layers pulp/foil/wax/paper/heat seal, which are laminated and placed into a closure. The closure is mounted on a container neck, after which an induction heating process is carried out. After induction, the pulp and foil layers remain in the closure while the wax layer is absorbed into the paper layer and stays on the container neck along with the heat seal layer.The liner for liquid contents is composed of pulp/foil/polyester/wax/paper/polyester/heat seal. This liner, which is also laminated, is placed into a closure and mounted to a container neck. Following an induction heating process, a pulp/foil/polyester laminate remains on the closure while the paper/wax layer (wherein the wax has been absorbed by the paper) remains on the container neck along with a polyester layer and the heat seal layer.

  • Patent number: 5672401
    Abstract: Metal sheet product, more particularly food can stock and beer and beverage can tab, end and body stock, is treated with a lubricant made by blending a mixture consisting essentially of about 25-90 wt.% of: (i) an ester selected from the group consisting of: bis(2-ethylhexyl)sebacate (or DOS), butyl stearate, and an acetylated, partially hydrogenated soybean oil; and (ii) about 10-75 wt.% of a blend consisting essentially of: (a) about 35-65 wt.% of a polyalphaolefin; and (b) about 65-35 wt.% of a microcrystalline wax; with a balance of incidental additives and impurities. With said composition applied thereon, in preferred average thicknesses between about 3-110 mg/ft.sup.2 for can tab stock and between about 3-35 mg/ft.sup.2 for can end and body stock, the invention produces prelubricated can stock in a suitable condition for conversion without further lubrication.
