摘要:
The invention generally provides gypsum-containing slurries including stucco, naphthalenesulfonate dispersant, and pregelatinized starch. The naphthalenesulfonate dispersant is present in an amount of about 0.1%-3.0% by weight based on the weight of dry stucco. The pregelatinized starch is present in an amount of at least about 0.5% by weight up to about 10% by weight of pregelatinized starch by weight based on the weight of dry stucco in the formulation. Other slurry additives can include trimetaphosphate salts, accelerators, binders, paper fiber, glass fiber, and other known ingredients.

This invention provides low dust low density gypsum wallboard products having high total core void volumes, corresponding to low densities in the range of about 10 to 30 pcf. The wallboards have a set gypsum core formed between two substantially parallel cover sheets, the set gypsum core preferably having a total void volume from about 80% to about 92%, and made from a slurry including stucco, pregelatinized starch, and a naphthalenesulfonate dispersant. The combination of the pregelatinized starch and the naphthalenesulfonate dispersant also provides a glue-like effect in binding the set gypsum crystals together. The wallboard formulation, along with small air bubble voids (and water voids) provides dust control during cutting, sawing, routing, snapping, nailing or screwing down, or drilling of the gypsum-containing products. This invention also provides a method of making the low dust low density gypsum products including the introduction of soap foam in an amount sufficient to form a total void volume, including air voids, preferably from about 80% to about 92% in the set gypsum core, corresponding to a set gypsum core density from about 10 pcf to about 30 pcf. The wallboards produced by the method generate significantly less dust during working.
摘要:
The invention provides a set gypsum-containing product having increased resistance to permanent deformation and a method for preparing it comprising forming a mixture of a calcium sulfate material, water, and an appropriate amount of one or more enhancing materials chosen from condensed phosphoric acids, each of which comprises 2 or more phosphoric acid units; and salts or ions of condensed phosphates, each of which comprises 2 or more phosphate units. The mixture is then maintained under conditions sufficient for the calcium sulfate material to form a set gypsum material.

Disclosed are various embodiments for employing spillover tables to improve performance of data store updates. A request to update a data field is received, and if an exclusive lock on a data table cannot be obtained, the request is placed in a spillover table until the exclusive lock can be obtained. If the request causes a constraint on the data field to be violated or causes the data field to move closer to the constraint, the request is not placed in the spillover table. A spillover task can collapse entries in the spillover table into the data store when an exclusive lock can be obtained.
摘要:
The present technology relates to a method of treating cancer by sensitizing human tumours to DNA damaging therapies through activating FBXO32 expression. Transactivation of FBXO32 through the inhibition of EZH2, a histone methyltransferase, decreases p21 protein induction which results in the sensitization of human tumours to chemotherapy. The method further provides a prognostic method to determine if a combination treatment would be effective.

The invention provides a light weight composite gypsum board including a foamed low density set gypsum core, a top non-foamed (or reduced-foamed) bonding high density layer and a bottom non-foamed (or reduced-foamed) bonding high density layer, a top cover sheet bonded to the foamed low density set gypsum core by the top non-foamed (or reduced-foamed) bonding high density layer, and a bottom cover sheet bonded to the foamed low density set gypsum core by the bottom non-foamed (or reduced-foamed) bonding high density layer. The foamed low density set gypsum core is prepared having a density of less than about 30 pcf using soap foam in the gypsum-containing slurry. The combination of components provide a composite gypsum board having light weight and high strength.
摘要:
A cementitious article and a method of making a cementitious article are disclosed. The cementitious article comprises a cementitious component that comprises a polyvinyl acetate type polymer, a monobasic phosphate, and optionally boric acid. Cementitious articles, such as board, are prepared such that the polyvinyl acetate type polymer, the monobasic phosphate, and optionally boric acid can be present in the cementitious core, and/or in dense layers if present. The concentration of the polyvinyl acetate type polymer, monobasic phosphate, and optionally boric acid in the cementitious article can increase from a central region A to peripheral regions B and C, respectively. In some embodiments, the polyvinyl acetate type polymer is a polyvinyl alcohol and the monobasic phosphate is monoammonium phosphate.
