Abstract:
Cationic siloxanes in the liquid phase of fire extinguishing foams, with or without other materials as foam promoters, stabilizers or special purpose additives, provide rapid extinguishment of flames, are capable of forming vapor-securing films over burning hydrocarbon liquids to prevent reignition upon foam rupture or disintegration and impart unique elastic properties useful in producing high expansion foams and in producing low expansion foams for sprinkler systems.
Abstract:
Anionic and/or amphoteric siloxanes in the liquid phase of fire extinguishing foams, with or without other materials as foam promoters, stabilizers or special purpose additives, provide rapid extinguishment of flames, form vapor-securing films over the burning hydrocarbon liquid to prevent reignition upon foam rupture or disintegration, and impart compatibility of the foam with dry chemical extinguishing agents.

PROCESS FOR FORMING CERAMIC BODIES EMPLOYING AQUEOUS LUBRICANT A process for forming green ceramic bodies using an aqueous solution of a high molecular weight, watersoluble polymer as a lubricant.
Abstract:
A high molecular weight, water-soluble polymer, water-in-oil emulsions thereof and a flocculating process using same are disclosed. The polymer may be represented by the formula: wherein A represents a repeating unit derived from a hydrophobic vinyl monomer having a water-solubility of less than about 5 weight %; R1 and R3 are each a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R4 and R5 are each a hydrogen atom, a methyl group or an ethyl group; R2 represents a divalent hydrocarbon group having from 2 to 13 carbon atoms; X represents a monovalent cation; B represents a repeating unit derived from an ethylenically-unsaturated carboxylic acid or a salt thereof; m is about 0.1-10 mole %, n is about 1-40 mole %, p is about 20-98.9 mole %, and q is about 0-40 mole % with the proviso that m + n + p + q = 100 mole % and r is a large positive integer.

Abstract:
PROCESS FOR FLOCCULATING PHOSPHATIC SLIMES Described herein is a process for flocculating phosphatic slimes which comprises (a) forming a concentrated aqueous solution from a water-soluble ter-or higher polymer water-in oil emulsion, (b) diluting said concentrated aqueous solution of ter-or higher polymer formed in step (a) with additional water, (c) mixing the diluted solution of (b) with phosphatic slimes under appropriate floc forming conditions and (d) allowing the suspended solids to settle from said slime to form an essentially clear aqueous supernatant.

Abstract:
POLYMER WATER-IN-OIL EMULSIONS Described herein are water soluble ter-or higher polymer water-in-oil emulsions comprising: (a) an aqueous phase comprising from about 60 to about 80 weight percent and containing therein from about 30 to about 70 weight percent of a ter- or higher polymer and from about 30 to about 70 weight percent of water, (D) a hydropnobic liquid comprising from about 15 to about 39.; weight percent, and (c) an oil-soluble surfactant comprising from about 0.5 to about 5 weight percent, said weight percents based on the total weight or the emulsion.

Abstract:
This invention is a method for agglomerating mineral ore concentrate comprising the commingling of mineral ore concentrate witha binding amount of water soluble polymers, preferably poly(acrylamides), and in one embodiment clay, preferably bentonite. The polymer is applied to the mineral ore concentrate either (1) as a dispersion in a non-aqueous dispersion medium or (2) as a dry powder. This invention is also a method of agglomerating mineral ore concentrate with flux material.
Abstract:
Water-soluble polymers are rapidly dissolved by employing a concentrate of (i) a water-soluble particulate polymer, (ii) a water-insoluble organic vehicle which is a non-solvent for the polymer. (iii) a nonionic surfactant agent having an HLB in the ranges of 3-5 and 9-13 and if necessary, a thickening agent.
