摘要： A continuous molding machine (10) for forming two chains (55) of soil plugs (50) for use in germinating seeds or otherwise growing plants. A continuous sheet of paper (22) is corrugated to conform to a series of mold elements (14) and a reaction mixture (32) of polymerizing agent and soil slurry is added over the paper to conform to the mold element shape. Another sheet of paper (38) is added over the top of the mixture (32) and the entire assembly is then passed under a series of pressure belts (42, 44, 46) during which time the mixture (32) is cured. The chain of soil plugs (50) which emerges from the pressure belts (42, 44, 46) is encased on both sides by paper (22, 38) and may be cut to provide a pair of separate soil plug chains (55).

摘要： A method of forming a urethane prepolymer comprising the steps of gradually adding an isocyanate compound to a hydrophilic polyether or polyester compound without substantial added mixing whereby a relatively dense isocyanate layer and a polyether or polyester layer overlying the isocyanate layer are formed, and a urethane prepolymer-forming reaction occurs at the interface between the layers. The resulting urethane prepolymer may be reacted with water to form a cellular urethane polymer, or with an aqueous slurry of unconsolidated aggregate material to form a consolidated aggregate product, such as a plant growth supporting rooting medium.
