US Patent:

44317662, Feb 14, 1984

Filed:

Nov 5, 1979

Appl. No.:

6/090967

Inventors:

William F. Christie - Westfield NJ
Lawrence A. Smalheiser - Spring Valley NY

Assignee:

Stauffer Chemical Company - Westport CT

International Classification:

C08K 334

US Classification:

524443

Abstract:

Polymeric materials, for example, vinyl materials contain an added trace amount of a compound which is detectable by an instrumental method of analysis in the absence of the step of freshly exposing a surface of the sample and without substantial interference from other ingredients in the vinyl material. The incorporation of the added trace compound allows for coding of the material and provides a means to later identify the manufacturer of the film without the need to affix more visible identification means thereto.

Appl. No.:

5/499666

Inventors:

Lawrence A. Smalheiser - Spring Valley NY

Assignee:

Stauffer Chemical Company - Westport CT

International Classification:

C08G 1814
C08L 7504

US Classification:

260 25AJ

Abstract:

The incorporation of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and a bis(hydrocarbyl) vinylphosphate, e. g. , bis(beta-chloroethyl) vinylphosphate, in a polyurethane foam formulation confers flame retardancy on the foam and lessens discoloration that occurs when the foam is formed.

Appl. No.:

5/534522

Inventors:

Lawrence A. Smalheiser - Spring Valley NY

Assignee:

Stauffer Chemical Company - Westport CT

International Classification:

B01D 5334

US Classification:

423245

Abstract:

The invention is a method for reducing the amount of ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbons in gaseous mixtures. The method comprises providing a gas stream containing the ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbon and ozone by admixing ozone with a gas stream containing ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbons or introducing the ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbons into a gas stream containing ozone, and permitting the gas containing the ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbons and ozone to react for a sufficient length of time to reduce the amount of ethylenically unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbon in the gas stream. The method is particularly useful for removing small amounts of vinyl chloride from gaseous streams thereby substantially reducing or eliminating the emission of such contaminants into the environment.

Appl. No.:

6/584223

Inventors:

Lawrence A. Smalheiser - Spring Valley NY

Assignee:

Stauffer Chemical Company - Westport CT

International Classification:

C01B 1700

US Classification:

423242

Abstract:

Higher loadings of SO. sub. 2 into an aqueous phosphate absorbent are achieved by use of a pH of no less than about 4. 5 and a molarity (e. g. , 3. 0 or above) which produces a greater SO. sub. 2 absorption than expected.
