摘要:
A polyvinyl alcohol gel pad. The gel pad has properties which make it useful as a support pad in the prevention and treatment of decubitus ulcers (also known as pressure sores) and for other purposes. The polyvinyl alcohol gel is made by cross-linking high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol using a cross-linking agent, such as formaldehyde, in the presence of an acid catalyst, such as hydrochloric acid, and by incorporating at least one internal plasticizer, such as propylene glycol, in the gel. The support pad is completed by putting a thin-film envelope around the gel. The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment to me of any royalty thereon.

THE INVENTION PROVIDES A BLEND OF CHLORINATED BUTADIENE POLYMERS WHICH IS READILY PEPTIZABLE IN ALIPHATIC LIQUIDS TO FORM SPARYABLE DISPERSIONS USEFUL AS ADHESIVES. THE BLEND COMPRISES (A) A GRAFT COPOLYMER OF (1) A CHLORINATED BUTADIENE SELECTED FROM CHLOROPRENE AND 2,3DICHLOROBUTADIENE-1,3, (2) AN ALKYL ACRYLATE OR METHACRYLATE, AS THE GRAFT PORTION, AND (3) UP TO 2% BY WEIGHT OF SULFUR AND (B) A COPOLYMER OF SULFUR AND A CHLORINATED BUTADIENE SELECTED FROM CHLOROPRENE AND 2,3DICHLOROBUTADIENE-1,3. THE PROPORTION BY WEIGHT OF ALKYL ACRYLATE OR METHACRYLATE IS 40 TO 80% IN (A) AND 15 TO 60% IN THE TOTAL COMPOSITION; AND THE PROPORTION OF SULFUR IN (B) IS 0.2 TO 2%. THE NUMBER AVERAGE MOLECULAR WEIGHT BETWEE SULFUR ATOMS IN (B) IS NOT OVER 110,000, AND THE ALKYL GROUP OF THE ALKYL ACRYLATE OR METHACRYLATE IN (A) CONTAINS 1 TO 18 CARBON ATOMS. A PREFERRED METHOD FOR MAKING THE SPRAYABLE DISPERISONS FROM THE BLENDS COMPRISES MIXING THE BLEND WITH AN ORGANIC LIQUID WHICH IS A NON-SOLVENT FOR COMPONENT (B) BUT IS A SOLVENT FOR THE ALKYL ACRYLATE OR METHACRYLATE GRAFT OF COMPONENT (A), MIXING WITH THE RESULTING PRODUCT A THIOPHILIC PEPTIZING AGENT, AND STIRRING UNTIL THE DESIRED DISPERSION IS OBTAINED.
摘要:
Crosslinkable coating agents based on an organic dispersion (I) of a crosslinkable copolymer (A) which dispersion is stable without an emulsifier and a diisocyanate or polyisocyanate (II). The organic dispersion (I) of the copolymer (A) is prepared by the copolymerization of: A. POLYMERIZABLE COMPOUNDS CONTAINING HYDROXYL GROUPS, WITH B. OTHER COMONOMERS IN C. AN ORGANIC LIQUID IN WHICH THE COPOLYMER (A) formed is not soluble, and in the presence of (B) a copolymer of comonomers from groups (a) and (b) and which is soluble in the organic liquid (c).

摘要:
A SOLVENT SYSTEM FOR COPOLYMERS OF ETHYLENE ACRYLIC ACID CHARACTERIZED IN THAT THE COPOLYMER WILL REMAIN DISSOLVED AT SUBSTANTIALLY NORMAL ROOM TEMPERATURE COMPRISING BETWEEN ABOUT 55 AND ABOUT 65 PERCENT BY WEIGHT TOLUENE, BASE UPON THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE SOLVENT BLEND, AND BETWEEN AND 35 AND ABOUT 45 PERCENT BY WEIGHT TETRAHYDROFURAN, BASED UPON THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE SOLVENT BLEND. THE COPOLYMER CAN BE DISSOLVED AND HELD IN SOLUTION AT NORMAL ROOM TEMPERATURE IN AMOUNTS UP TO ABOUT 5 PERCENT BY WEIGHT BASED UPON THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE SOLUTION.
