摘要:
A method of providing cured latex-based compositions is disclosed which permits in situ curing of latexes disposed in plastic container closures or other heat sensitive receptacles without adverse effect on the closure or receptacle. The method comprises heating a fluid latex composition to gel the latex and effect removal of at least a portion of the water initially contained therein and subjecting the resultant composition to modulated microwave energy to effect curing thereof. Modulation of the microwave energy is achieved by applying same in an intermittent or pulsed fashion. The method is of particular interest for the in situ formation of cured latex-based gaskets in polyalkylene container closures.
摘要:
A process for the manufacture of a resilient foam based on a melamine-formaldehyde condensate, wherein an aqueous or alcoholic solution or dispersion containing a melamine-formaldehyde precondensate, an emulsifier, a blowing agent and a hardener is foamed by ultra-high-frequency irradiation and the foam is hardened by crosslinking the precondensate. The foam may be employed for heat and sound insulation, and as a packaging material.

A crosslinked, soft, flexible, closed-cell foam of chlorinated high density polyethylene and a process for the preparation thereof, comprising admixing a high density chlorinated polyethylene with a thermally decomposable chemical foaming agent at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of said foaming agent, molding the chlorinated high density polyethylene into desired form at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the foaming agent, subjecting the molded chlorinated high density polyethylene to irradiation cross-linking at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of said foaming agent and contacting, in a substantially oxygen-free environment, the crosslinked chlorinated high density polyethylene with a heat transfer medium maintained at a temperature of from about 150.degree. C. to about 350.degree. C. for a period sufficient to form the desired product.
摘要:
There are provided shaped articles, such as trays and food containers, thermoformed from oriented poly (p-methylstyrene) sheet, oriented foamed poly (p-methylstyrene) film with oriented poly (p-methylstyrene) foam or polystyrene foam, that have been cross-linked by exposure to radiation. Such articles are resistant to fats and fatty foods contained therein can be placed in microwave ovens without destruction by hot, melted fats. The articles can also withstand conventional oven temperatures.
摘要:
A CROSS-LINKED OLEFIN POLYMER IS PRODUCED BY APPLYING HIGH ENERGY IONIZING RADIATION TO A MIXTURE OF THE OLEFIN POLYMER AND TRIVINYL ISOCYANURATE IN AN AMOUNT SUCH THAT THE MIXTURE ABSORBS A RADIATION DOSE OF BETWEEN ABOUT 1.0 AND ABOUT 1 MEGARAD. THE TRIVINYL ISOCYANURATE SERVES TO ENHANCE THE CROSS-LINKABILITY OF THE OLEFIN POLYMER SUCH A HIGH DEGREE OF CROSS-LINK IS ACHIEVED WITH A SMALL RADIATION DOSE. THE MIXTURE CAN ALSO CONTAIN A FOAMING AGENT WHICH CAN BE MADE TO EXPAND AND THEREBY PRODUCE A CELLULAR PRODUCT. PRODUCTS FASHIONED OF THE CROSS-LINKED POLYMER HAVE IMPROVED DIMENSIONAL STABILITY AND ARE MORE RESISTANT TO THERMAL SHRINKAGE AND DISTORTION. THE CROSS-LINKED OLEFIN POLYMER CAN BE FASHIONED INTO A VARIETY OF PRODUCTS HAVING UTILITY IN MANY FIELDS INCLUDING THE PACKAGING AND CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRIES.
摘要:
A method of producing a foamed article having a uniform cellular structure using a modified polypropylene produced by irradiating polypropylene with an ionizing radiation of from 0.1 to 5.0 megarad and graft-copolymerizing the irradiated polypropylene with from 0.5 - 6 percent by weight divinyl benzene or with from 0.5 - 6 percent by weight of divinyl benzene and not more than 10 percent by weight of an acrylic acid ester.

POLYMERS HAVING A FIBROUS STRUCTURE ARE OBTAINED BY THE POLYMERIZATION OF SOLUTONS AND/OR EMULSIONS OR DISPERSIONS, FULLY OR PARTIALLY SOLIDIFIED IN CRYSTALLINE FORM, OF ERHYLENICALLY UNSATURATED MONOMERS WITH AT LEAST TWO POLYMERIZABLE DOUBLE BONDS OR MIXTURES CONTAINING AT LEAST 0.01% BY WEIGHT OF THESE MONOMES AND MONOETHYLENICALLY UNSATURATED MONOMERS BY IRRADIATION, WHICH POLYMERS CAN BE OBTAINED IN THE FORM OF NOVEL POROUS MATERIAL (= POROMERIC MATERIAL) HAVING PROPERTIES SIMILAR TO LEATHER.
摘要:
1. A PROCESS COMPRISING CROSS-LINKING POLYETHYLENE BY THE USE OF BOTH HIGH ENERGY IONIZING IRRADIATION AT A DOSAGE OF AT LEAST ABOUT 2X10**6 R.E.G. AND A FREE RADICAL POLYMERIZATION CATALYST SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF PEROXY COMPOUNDS, AZO COMPOUNDS AND POLYNITROSODIMETHYL TEREPHTHALATE.
