20130211068 | BINDER, COMPOSITION FOR USE IN MAKING THE BINDER, AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME - According to one embodiment, there is provided a composition for use in making a cured binder, the composition comprising: a first mixture comprising citric acid and an alkali metal hydroxide or an aqueous solution comprising the reaction products thereof; wherein the molar ratio of the alkali metal hydroxide to citric acid is between about 0.001:1 to 0.6:1, and wherein the pH of the first mixture is about 0.5 to about 2.5 when the first mixture is a 50% by weight citric acid aqueous solution. | 08-15-2013 |
20140038485 | BIO-BASED BINDERS INCLUDING CARBOHYDRATES AND A PRE-REACTED PRODUCT OF AN ALCOHOL OR POLYOL AND A MONOMERIC OR POLYMERIC POLYCARBOXYLIC ACID - An environmentally friendly, formaldehyde-free, aqueous binder composition that includes a carbohydrate, a crosslinking agent, and a pre-reacted product of an alcohol or polyol and monomeric or polymeric polycarboxylic acid or polyglycerol is provided. The pre-reacted product may include glycerol and esters of citric acid such a monoglyceryl citrate, diglyceryl citrate, and triglyceryl citrate as well as other higher molecular weight citric acid-based esters. The inclusion of the pre-reacted product in the binder composition helps to speed the crosslinking reaction, induces faster water evaporation, decreases the viscosity of the binder, helps to reduce the amount of water needed for application of the binder, decreases tackiness, and helps to achieve a maximum vertical expansion of the insulation pack in the transfer zone. The binder composition may be used in the formation of insulation materials and non-woven chopped strand mats. | 02-06-2014 |
20140051824 | BIO-BASED PRE-REACTED PRODUCT OF A POLYOL AND A MONOMERIC OR POLYMERIC POLYCARBOXYLIC ACID - An environmentally friendly, pre-reacted product of a polyol and monomeric or polymeric polycarboxylic acid or polyglycerol is provided. The pre-reacted product may include glycerol and esters of citric acid such a monoglyceryl citrate, diglyceryl citrate, and triglyceryl citrate as well as other citric acid-based esters. The pre-reacted product, when used in a binder, helps to speed the crosslinking reaction, induces faster water evaporation, decreases the viscosity of the binder, helps to reduce the amount of water needed for application of the binder, and decreases tackiness. The pre-reacted product may be used, for example, in the formation of insulation materials and non-woven chopped strand mats. | 02-20-2014 |
