Abstract:
A binder comprising the products of a carbohydrate reactant and polyamine is disclosed. The binder is useful for consolidating loosely assembled matter, such as fibers. Uncured fibrous products comprising fibers in contact with a carbohydrate reactant and a polyamine are also disclosed. The binder composition may be cured to yield a fibrous product comprising fibers bound by a cross-linked polymer. Further disclosed are methods for binding fibers with the carbohydrate reactant and polyamine based binder.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to binder compositions with an improved amine component, and a method of manufacturing a collection of matter bound by said binder compositions.
Abstract:
A hydroponics growing medium comprising mineral fibres and an organic binder, the growing medium has a Weathered Interlaminar Strength of at least 4 kilopascals and a phenol content of less than or equal to 0.01% by weight.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a water-soluble pre-reacted binder composition, a method of its manufacture, a use of said pre-reacted binder composition, a method of manufacturing a collection of matter bound by a polymeric binder, a binder solution or dispersion comprising said pre-reacted binder composition, as well as products comprising the pre-reacted binder composition in a cured state.
Abstract:
A curable aqueous composition is disclosed comprising a carbohydrate, a crosslinking agent, and an amine base, wherein the curable aqueous composition has a pH adjusted by the amine base. Further disclosed is a method of forming a curable aqueous solution.

Abstract:
An insulation product comprising fibers consolidated with a binder is disclosed to which a non-aqueous moisturizer has been included. The binder is disposed upon the fibers and the non-aqueous moisturizer is in contact with fibers and/or binder. The insulation product may be an uncured fiber insulation product in which the binder is an uncured binder. The insulation product may be packaged in a suitable material. Accordingly, disclosed is a packaged uncured fiber insulation product.
