Patent number: 5386838Abstract: A high surface area oxidative catalyst smoke suppressive composition, smoke suppressive articles, and method of making such compositions and articles are disclosed. The smoke suppressive composition is a solid solution comprising a mixture of iron (Fe) and magnesium (Mg) that promotes efficient combustion, articles treated with such compositions, and methods for making such smoke suppressive compositions and articles. The smoke suppressive composition is made by co-precipitating Fe and Mg from an aqueous solution in the presence of a base. The iron-magnesium composition demonstrates high surface area and efficient combustion for embodiments having iron in an amount from approximately 3 mol % to approximately 30 mol % and magnesium in an amount from approximately 97 mol % to approximately 70 mol %. The compositions provide superior smoke suppression for items such as cigarettes and smoke suppressive articles.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 1993Date of Patent: February 7, 1995Assignee: Kimberly-Clark CorporationInventors: Roger B. Quincy, III, William F. Cartwright

Patent number: 5262444Abstract: The invention relates to a breathable, plastic film, useful as a wall covering material. A low boiling additive, such as water, is added to a plastisol before extrusion. During extrusion and curing of the plastisol into a film or coating, the low boiling additive is volatilized and the resulting evolved gas perforates the forming film. In this manner a permeable plastic film, such as vinyl, is produced.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 1992Date of Patent: November 16, 1993Assignee: Borden, Inc.Inventors: George Rusincovitch, Paul J. Roe, Richard C. Andrews

Patent number: 5232955Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing a highstrength a furan stone with high permeability and filtering effect mainly for protecting deep-drilled wells yielding mineral oil, natural gas and water against getting choked by sand. A mixture comprising an artificial resin as a binding material containing a catalyzer for controlling duration of binding and pumpability and an assorted granular material of high-strength forming the skeleton and salt filling and increasing pore spaces is homogenized and pumped into the corresponding producing section of the well into the area to be protected. After hardening of the mixture salt is dissolved from the obtained artificial stone and a filtering effect is achieved without binding the grains of the reservoir rock. Due to the mechanical characteristics and controlled porosity of the obtained artificial stone rock-parts, mainly sand delivered by the yielded fluidum into the well will be retained.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 1991Date of Patent: August 3, 1993Assignees: Mol Magyar Olaj Es Gazipari Reszvenytarsasag, Koolajkutato VallalatInventors: Tibor Csabai, Miklos Magyar, Istvan Munkacsi, Mihaly Kun, Tibor Plajner, Ambrus Andristyak, Cecilia Fuzes nee Takacs, Istvan Balazs
