US Patent:

40138151, Mar 22, 1977
Filed:

Dec 18, 1975
Appl. No.:

5/642026
Inventors:

Edwin Dorfman - Grand Island NY
Willis T. Schwartz - Grand Island NY
Raymond R. Hindersinn - Lewiston NY
Assignee:

Hooker Chemicals & Plastics Corporation - Niagara Falls NY
International Classification:

C08L 6706
US Classification:

428285
Abstract:

Highly fire retardant unsaturated polyester resins which exhibit low burning rates, low smoke generation and beneficial char formation in the presence of a flame are provided by incorporating up to about 5 weight percent of iron or an iron compound in a halogen containing unsaturated polyester of a polycarboxylic compound and a polyhydric alcohol having greater than about 4 weight percent halogen based on the weight of unsaturated polyester resin and a copolymerizable unsaturated monomer. The unsaturated polyester resins are copolymerized with an unsaturated monomer for use in castings, laminated products and other reinforced articles.

US Patent:

40383423, Jul 26, 1977
Filed:

Mar 11, 1976
Appl. No.:

5/665752
Inventors:

Willis T. Schwartz - Grand Island NY
Assignee:

Hooker Chemicals & Plastics Corporation - Niagara Falls NY
International Classification:

C08L 6706
US Classification:

260862
Abstract:

Polymerizable polyester compositions are provided containing a styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer reacted with a hydroxyl terminated saturated polyester. Such compositions have good thickening response and are free from tackiness in the uncured state, and upon curing have good shrinkage control and improved surface smoothness. The compositions are useful as bulk molding compounds or sheet molding compounds.
