Patent number: 4277532Abstract: A thermally-expandable sealant for joints, cavities or holes, which foams in the event of a fire and thereby effects a seal, comprising as a carrier a fleece or fabric made of glass or plastic, which is coated with a composition based upon expandable graphite and containing, per 100 parts by weight of expandable graphite, 10 to 30 parts by weight of polychlorobutadiene, 1 to 40 parts by weight of an alkylphenol/formaldehyde resin and 1 to 3 parts by weight of stabilizers known per se, and optionally, up to 30 parts by weight of inorganic fibers and up to 80 parts by weight of aluminium hydroxide. A process for sealing joints, cavities or holes using the sealant is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 1979Date of Patent: July 7, 1981Assignee: Chemie Linz AktiengesellschaftInventors: Hubert Czepel, Franz Jilek, Heinz Zochbauer

Patent number: 4277533Abstract: A waterproofing sheet material useful for example as a free floating membrane or flashing material in roofing applications, a pond liner, or a gasketing material, composed of from about 15 wt. % to about 80 wt. % of an ingredient selected from the group consisting of:(a) homopolymers of alkadienes and substituted alkadienes(b) addition copolymers of alkadienes with unsaturated monomers(c) homopolymers of alkenes and substituted alkenes selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, chlorosulfonated polyethylene and polyisobutylene(d) resin acids and resin acid derivatives(e) highly aromatic bituminous materials, and(f) pine oiland from about 85 wt. % to about 20 wt. % of a plasticized polyvinyl butyral resin. Minor amounts of fatty acids and paraffin wax may be added to improve low temperature properties and to facilitate processing a hot melt admixture of the ingredients into a sheet.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 1979Date of Patent: July 7, 1981Assignee: Tremco, Inc.Inventors: Charles A. Kumins, Milan L. Warford

Patent number: 4268565Abstract: A cellulosic fiber containing board is molded at a temperature of at least 525.degree. F. to provide a relatively high density skin on at least one surface.A fibrous composition, including cellulosic fibers, is consolidated to form a blank having a density of less than 35 pounds/cubic foot. The blank is then cut to a shape larger in at least two of its three dimensions than corresponding dimensions of a mold cavity when said mold is in a closed position.Urea is then included in at least a surface layer of fibers of the blank in an amount of at least 5% based on the dry weight of the fibers contacted with urea, and thereafter the cut blank is molded to form a contoured product having a skin on at least one surface thereof, the skin defined by a thickness of material on said surface of said product having a density greater than the material on which the skin is formed.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 1979Date of Patent: May 19, 1981Assignee: Masonite CorporationInventors: Allan J. Luck, John T. Clarke, Michael R. Hoffman

Patent number: 4267234Abstract: Polyglutaraldehyde (PGL) is polymerized in aqueous base or in aqueous highly polar solvent basic media to prepare powders, castable films or coatings for substrates such as amine substituted microbeads. PGL microspheres can be prepared by suspension polymerization in presence of a surfactant or by precipitating PGL from solution containing surfactant. Magnetic PGL microspheres are formed by suspension polymerization in the presence of magnetic particles such as iron oxide. Polyglutaraldehyde can be converted to a fluorescent polymer by reaction with m-aminophenol or other reagent. Proteins can be readily covalently bound to the polyglutaraldehyde.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 1979Date of Patent: May 12, 1981Assignee: California Institute of TechnologyInventor: Alan Rembaum

Patent number: 4267240Abstract: A novel release sheet comprising a web of paper having a water absorption of at least about 200 seconds which has been sized on at least one side thereof with a water-soluble, alkaline earth or earth metal salt, e.g. a calcium salt such as calcium chloride and then coated on said sized side with a film of a mixture of a salt of alginic acid, such as sodium alginate, and either (1) a triglyceride or (2) hydrolyzed or non-hydrolyzed lecithin, and a method of producing decorative laminates therewith.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 1980Date of Patent: May 12, 1981Assignee: Formica CorporationInventors: Richard F. Jaisle, Kenneth D. Bunkowski

Patent number: 4265963Abstract: Flameproof and fireproof products are formed from a fire-unstable material coated with a polymeric material which is capable of intumescing beginning at a low temperature and has adhesive qualities in conjunction with the fire-unstable material. Upon the application of heat or flame to the products, the coating material copiously intumesces to form a protective thermal insulating foam barrier which prevents the fire-unstable material from igniting or degrading to the point of evolving flammable gases or losing its dimensional stability. Continued application of heat or flame will cause the foam to char but will not destroy the products for a suprisingly long time. The polymeric coating material comprises the resinous reaction product of phosphoric acid and a reducing sugar with a hardener and containing at least one modifying agent capable of rendering the coating material highly and permanently intumescent at a low initiating temperature even after prolonged storage of the flameproof and fireproof product.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 1979Date of Patent: May 5, 1981Assignee: Arco Polymers, Inc.Inventor: Ralph Matalon
