US Patent:

52721981, Dec 21, 1993

Filed:

Mar 12, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/031090

Inventors:

Stanley S. Kaminski - Stamford CT
Robert E. Evans - Huntington CT

Assignee:

American Cyanamid Company - Stamford CT

International Classification:

C08H 326

US Classification:

524426

Abstract:

Improved asbestos-free fiber reinforced material for use in the manufacture of gaskets, and the like, comprises (a) an elastomeric binder material and (b) microdenier acrylic fibers with a small diameter of up to about 12 microns, and a minimum aspect ratio in the 20-50 range so as to enhance the flexibility and the strength of the gaskets, shock mountings, timing belts, sealants, and the like, made from such materials.

Appl. No.:

8/419879

Inventors:

Stanley S. Kaminski - Stamford CT
Robert E. Evans - Huntington CT

Assignee:

Cytec Technology Corp. - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

D04H 120

US Classification:

264112

Abstract:

Dry processed friction materials are disclosed wherein the components thereof include dry blends of a) fibrillated, organic, synthetic polymer, b) organic, synthetic polymer staple and c) organic, synthetic soluble polymer particles.

Appl. No.:

7/526272

Inventors:

Artun Maranci - Westport CT
Steven L. Peake - Ridgefield CT
Stanley S. Kaminski - Stamford CT

Assignee:

American Cyanamid Company - Stamford CT

International Classification:

B32B 528
B32B 530

US Classification:

428147

Abstract:

The invention relates to prepregs of fiber-reinforced thermosetting resin that have a coating comprising thermoplastic particles on one or both outer surfaces. Upon lamination of the prepregs into a composite, the layer comprising thermoplastic particles at the surface of the prepreg is formed into a discrete resin layer in the composite at the interface between fiber-reinforced thermosetting resin layers. The laminated composite materials have improved toughness and impact strength due to the thermoplastic particulate material at the interface and yet the composites still retain desired mechanical properties under hot/wet conditions.

Assignee:

Cytec Technology Corp. - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

D02G 322
D02G 100

US Classification:

525113

Abstract:

Crimped acrylic fibers with a small diameter, a minimum aspect ratio in the 20-50 range, and having a crimp of greater than about 10% so as to enhance the viscosity of polymers, resistance to gravity-induced slumping when applied to vertical surfaces, and mix stability, as well as provide matrix reinforcement and toughness, are adapted to act as improved physical thixotropes in adhesives, sealants, coatings, paints, grouts, building materials and the like.
