摘要:
Compositions, methods, and systems for manufacturing articles, particularly containers and packaging materials, having a highly inorganically filled matrix. Suitable inorganically filled mixtures are prepared by mixing together an organic polymer binder, water, one or more aggregate materials, fibers, and optional admixtures in the correct proportions in order to form an article which has the desired performance criteria. The inorganically filled mixtures are molded to fashion a portion of the mixture into a form stable shape for the desired article. Once the article has obtained form stability, the article is removed from the mold and allowed to harden to gain strength. The articles may have properties substantially similar to articles presently made from traditional materials like paper, paperboard, polystyrene, plastic, or metal. They have especial utility in the mass production of containers, particularly food and beverage containers.
摘要:
A novel blend composition comprising one or more cationic polygalactomannas and xanthan gum is provided. The blend is capable of producing enhanced viscosities when distributed in a solvent. The blend is suitable for use in foods, explosives, oil field chemicals, textile fibers, agricultural chemicals and cosmetics.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for continuously extruding a hydraulically settable mixture and simultaneously placing continuous filaments within the extruding mixture to yield articles having a filament-reinforced, hydraulically settable matrix. The filaments can be placed within the mixtures in a parallel configuration, a helical configuration, or combinations thereof, in order to yield an article having the desired properties of, e.g., tensile strength, flexural strength, hoop strength, burst strength, toughness, and elongation ability. The desired properties of the hydraulically settable mixture, as well as of the cured hydraulically settable matrix of the hardened article, may also be adjusted by including varying amounts and types of aggregates, discontinuous fibers, binders, rheology-modifying agents, dispersants, or other admixtures within the hydraulically settable mixture. Optimizing the particle packing density while including a deficiency of water yields a hydraulically settable mixture which will flow when an extrusion pressure is applied but be form stable upon being extruded.
摘要:
A design optimization process used to determine the proportions of sand, cement, coarse aggregate, water, fly ash, water reducers, air entraining agents and fillers needed to produce a concrete mixture that has desired strength and slump properties and a minimal cost. The optimization process comprises a combination of models that accurately reflect the properties of a concrete mixture based on the properties of its individual components. The process is further capable of optimizing the durability of the cementitious mixture and of accurately calculating the expected yield of the mixture.
摘要:
Compositions, methods, and apparatus for manufacturing sheets having a highly inorganically filled matrix. Suitable inorganically filled mixtures are prepared by mixing together an organic polymer binder, water, one or more aggregate materials, fibers, and optional admixtures in the correct proportions in order to form a sheet which has the desired performance criteria. The inorganically filled mixtures are formed into sheets by first extruding the mixtures and then passing the extruded materials between a set of rollers. The rolled sheets are dried in an accelerated manner to form a substantially hardened sheet, such as by heated rollers and/or a drying chamber. The inorganically filled sheets may have properties substantially similar to sheets presently made from traditional materials like paper, paperboard, polystyrene, plastic, or metal. Such sheets can be cut, rolled, pressed, scored, perforated, folded, and glued to fashion articles from the sheets. They have especial utility in the mass production of containers, particularly food and beverage containers.
摘要:
A composition comprising: (A) a coprecipitate consisting essentially of: (a) a galactomannan, with (b) a glucomannan; and (B) optionally, a gelling agent admixed with the formed coprecipitate. The inventive compositions are useful as the base for food products such as: a gelled or thickened food, a pourable salad dressing; a liquid food or food additive, a food spread such as a margarine or cheese spread, a water dessert gel, a mayonnaise, a frozen dessert, and the like.
摘要:
A novel blend composition comprising one or more cationic polysaccharides and one or more anionic polysaccharides is provided. The blend is capable of producing enhanced viscosities when distributed in a solvent. The blend is suitable for use in foods, explosives, oil field chemicals, textile fibers, paper production, personal care products, agricultural chemicals and cosmetics.
摘要:
A process and composition is provided for a hydratable, alloy gum composition of Cassia gum and another gelling and thickening agent which composition is capable of forming a clear, stable colloidal solution. The compositions are usually more easily dispersed in an aqueous solution than either component alone. An alloy gum composition of Cassia gum and xanthan gum is particularly useful for absorbing an aqueous medium.
摘要:
The invention relates to gelling agents and thickeners based on Cassia-galactomannans and especially a synergistic mixture of (a) Cassia-toragalactomannan, and (b) carrageenan, agar and/or xanthan.
摘要:
Carbonaceous slurries are provided in which the carbonaceous slurry stabilizer is selected from the group of(1) the alkyl ether of a polygalactomannan alone, or in combination with xanthan gum or(2) the hydroxyalkyl ether of a polygalactomannan in combination with xanthan gum, or(3) a mixture of said alkyl ether, said hydroxyalkyl ether and said xanthan gum.
