Method of embossing limp plastic sheet material

Abstract: Thin polyethylene film, of 0.025 mm, or less thickness is passed between a pair of matching embossing rollers having, respectively, negative and positive embossing patterns on their surface, driven at the same circumferential speed, the speed of the embossing rollers being suitably chosen to allow the film to pass between the rollers while being embossed. The rollers are preferably cooled; the continuous embossed web, if 2-layer and tubular, is then inflated to separate the two-embossed layers, which can then be heat-sealed together at intervals and the edge slit to form separable bags, when rolled up in a single roll for ease of dispensing; the embossing patterns preferably, but not necessarily match at least at the heat-seal lines.

Radiation curable coating

Abstract: A radiation curable coating composition for various substrates contains an adduct of acrylic acid and an epoxy resin (which may be modified with an anhydride, such as maleic anhydride), and a reactive acrylate monomer vehicle. The coating composition can be pigmented and can also contain additives commonly used in coatings, such as wetting agents and flow control agents. The coating composition does not require the usual hydrocarbon vehicles that give rise to air pollution problems. Surface gloss of a UV cured film obtained from a pigmented coating composition can be increased by using a photosensitizer combination of 2-chlorothioxanthone and a phenylketone, such as benzophenone. Adhesion of a cured coating is improved by replacing the tertiary amine co-sensitizer, at least in part, with dimethylaminoethyl acrylate.

Polymer-coated support and its use as sand pack in enhanced oil recovery

Abstract: A non-friable support, e.g., sand, coated with a polymer is prepared by contacting the support containing a polymerization catalyst with a monomer which is at least one multi-functional olefin, e.g., a diene, under monomer polymerization conditions. The product of the polymerization process is a highly cross-linked coating which engulfs the support, thereby rendering it hydrolytically and thermally stable. The support can be used as a sand pack in enhanced oil recovery operations, wherein it is resistant to deterioration due to high temperature, pressure and alkaline conditions existing in the subterranean formations.

Enhanced oil recovery using carbon dioxide

Abstract: An enhanced oil recovery process in which carbon dioxide is injected into the oil-bearing formation under supercritical conditions to act as a solvent for the oil. Mobility of the carbon dioxide is controlled by the use of a dissolved polymer whose solubility is enhanced by the use of an entrainer comprising a polar organic compound such as an alcohol or a glycol.

Selectivating zeolites with organosiliceous agents

Abstract: There is provided a method for selectivating a zeolite, such as ZSM-5 which may result in functionalization of the zeolite with at least one organosiliceous group of the formula, SiRn (OX)4-n, where R is at least one hydrocarbyl group, n is 1 or 2 and X is Si or H. This selectivation method involves vapor phase treatment of a zeolite with an organosilicon compound having at least 2 silicon atoms. This organosilicon compound may be a silicone compound, such as hexamethyldisiloxane, or a silane compound such as hexamethyldisilane. This contacting may take place in the presence of hydrogen and an organic carrier. The functionalized zeolites may provide a catalyst which is both highly active and highly selective for converting aromatic hydrocarbons, especially alkylbenzene compounds, to products comprising the para-isomer of dialkylbenzenes. The disproportionation of toluene is an example of such a reaction.
