Solvent permits solid curing agents to be used at room temperatures

Solvent system dissolves the solid curing agents used with polyurethane resins in adhesive systems. The system developed yields bond strengths comparable to 100 percent solid formulations. The optimum solvent chosen was a 55.5 percent solution in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran.

Locating and sealing air leaks in multiroomed buildings

Industrial, nontoxic smoke bombs are used in multiroomed buildings to locate and fill discovered leak areas with polyurethane foam. All obvious air escape routes are sealed and the room is then pressurized to a minimum of 0.1 inch water above the pressure of adjoining rooms.

A new method for fabrication of flexible vacuum purge jackets

Polyurethane-coated synthetic fabric is fitted with a filament-glass mat exterior which gives it a high degree of springback ability. Material is capable of maintaining its springback capability in a temperature range from ambient to cryogenic.

Thermal conductivity probe

Low-mass probe accurately measures the thermal conductivity of polyurethane foam /and other thermal insulating materials/ while exposed to either hydrogen of helium permeation in temperature ranges from ambient to cryogenic. The thermal conductivity of a specimen is determined from an experimentally determined increase in temperature.
