Pneumatic Tire Having Puncture Sealing Feature A self-sealing pneumatic tire comprised of a cured rubber tire casing having a fitted, adherent sealant composite strip on its inner surface comprised of an admixture of (A) a partially crosslinked butyl type rubber, (B) plasticizer therefor, (C) butyl rubbercompatible tackifier and (D) particulate reinforcement.

The storage stability of otherwise unstable premix compositions for flame retardant rigid polyurethane foams containing in the premix a chlorinated polyether polyol and a tertiary amine catalyst, is enhanced by incorporation into the premix minor amount of a vinyl monomer. The preferred vinyl monomers employed are condensation products of acrylic or methacrylic acid with alcohols or amines.

A method for producing a flexible polyurethane foam having reduced tendency to form burning embers when it is ignited and burned is provided by incorporating a ketone or benzaldehyde into the reaction mixture for polyurethane formation before foaming, and preferably also incorporating a flame retardant into the reaction mixture before foaming in order to give the foam increased flame retardance.

The manufacture of foam rubber having improved set and deflection properties at low foam densities is provided.

Polymer blends of improved impact strength are prepared by mixing polyvinyl chloride with an impact strength-increasing amount of an vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer which has been pre-blended with an ultrafine particle size inert inorganic filler.

Removal of ambient oxygen from aqueous liquids is effectively catalyzed by enzymatic deoxygenation systems comprising alcohol oxidase in the presence of alcohol optionally with catalase. Suitable deoxygenation systems described can be used to alleviate corrosion and oxidative degradation in areas such as oil field fluids, circulating water systems, water storage tanks, alcoholic beverages and food...
