Antiwebbing

   M125 - Antiweb
M125 is a superior antiwebbing agent which is homogenized. 
M125 has had proven industrial usage in dipping and coating 
compounds.  It can be added directly to a dipping compound 
or diluted and sprayed as a mist over the surface of the dip tank 
as the forms are emerging.  Optimum results are obtained by 
use of .2-1.6 wet weight on wet weight of latex compound.

21 CFR 177.2600 (Rubber articles intended for repeated use). 
M125 is chemically acceptable for use in articles which will 
be used in producing, manufacturing, packing, processing, 
packaging, or holding food, subject to the provisions of 
21 CFR 176.170.

   M132A - Fire Retardant Plasticizer Emulsion
M-132A is an aqueous emulsion of a tetrabromophthalate ester 
which acts as a flame retardant plasticizer for PVC, acrylic and 
other polymeric latex compounds and coatings.  M-132A offers 
the following advantages:

   - High flame-retardant efficiency
- Good plasticizing activity
   - Excellent thermal stability
   - Compatible with other plasticizer emulsions

PROPERTIES:

Active solids (%)                        74 - 78
pH                                       9 - 10
Weight per gallon (lbs)                  11.00

APPLICATIONS:

M-132A is recommended as a flame retardant additive for 
coatings such as drapery and upholstery backcoatings.  It 
also is useful in various other coated fabrics which require 
flame-retardancy.  In order to maximize its effeciency, the 
use of a small amount of an antimony oxide synergist is 
recommended.  Where the use of an antimony oxide is 
undesirable, higher levels of M-132A can be used to achieve 
the desired level of flame retardancy.

Grease Tackifier

   001501 - Lubricant Modifier
1501 is used in oils and greases where splattering or 
dripping is undesirable, as in machinery used to process 
food or textiles.  Oil or grease containing 1501 should not 
be exposed to temperatures above 200°F.

The addition of 0.5% to 2% of 00150l, based on wet weight 
of the lubricant, increases the viscosity and results in a "cling" 
or tackiness of the oil or grease over a wide range of temperatures.  
The cohesiveness and adhesiveness of the lubricant is increased, 
thereby reducing the drip and spatter. The cohesiveness or 
adhesiveness also helps to eliminate waste of a lubricant in 
loose fitting bearings and also reduces losses whereby the lubricant 
s not mechanically retained.

This material offers a practical means of obtaining controlled 
tackiness. Laboratory experiments and practical uses by many 
customers in the specialty oil and grease field have proven that 
1501affects savings through its use.

     150l has the following specifications:

Total solids content %                   62 - 63
Weight per gallon (lbs)                  8.0 
pH                                       11.0 - 11.5
Viscosity (Brookfield #4 @ 6) cps        450+


This compound has FDA approval for use in food grade lubricants
in accordance with 21 CFR 178.3570 (lubricants with incidental
food contact).

1436 is a prevulcanized natural latex compound thickened for 
brush applications. Extremely tough molds can be made from 
1436 without the need for extended curing.
   PROCEDURE:

The model which is to be reproduced can be made of any desired 
material which is not soluble in water, including modeling clay. 
It may be varnished, if practical. In some applications, release
may be enhanced by the use of vegetable oil as a release agent.

Using the 1436 as an adhesive, attach the model firmly to a glass 
plate. Wait 60 minutes for a good bond to develop. Immerse an 
ordinary paint brush in a 20 % soap solution and shake off 
the excess. Then apply a thin even coat of 001436 to the model, 
brushing it out thoroughly to remove any air bubbles.

Work from top to bottom and finish by extending the coating out 
horizontally onto the glass plate for a distance of about 1.5 ". 
Allow the coating to dry to the touch.  Alternatively, the base coat 
can be applied by dipping the model into the compound and 
withdrawing it slowly and evenly to allow drainage. This method 
sometimes makes it easier to avoid having to brush out the air 
bubbles in the base coat.

Apply the second coat in a checkerboard type pattern - spots of 
latex touching at the corners, but leaving the uncoated parts of 
approximately the same size between. Allow to dry and then 
apply a third coat in the same manner as the first coat. This 
procedure tends to reduce the tendency of the mold to shrink so 
that the dimensions of its cavity will be only slightly less than 
those of the model.

Continue with alternate checkerboard and overall coatings until 
the desired mold thickness has been achieved. For small molds, 
three coats may suffice and for larger molds, as many as twelve 
coats may be required.

No definite instructions can be given for drying because conditions 
may vary. Except in humid weather, room drying can usually be 
accomplished between four hours and overnight. If a dryer, which 
will maintain a temperature of 140° F is available, the drying 
can be accomplished within an hour.(The maximum temperature of 
140° F should be used for intercoat drying.)  Other means such 
as reflector heaters, infra-red dryers and hot air blowers (as used in 
beauty salons) have been known to be used effectively. Always 
avoid rapid drying which may cause blistering.

To give the model its greatest strength, it should be heated after its 
final drying, and before it is removed from the mold. Place the 
model in a warm room overnight or heat for one hour at around 
175° F.

1436 has frequently been used to create molds in reproduction 
of antique trims !

     at a fairly slow rate.  Drain for a minute or so.

(2)  Dip in and out of 00D804 coagulant.  Drain for four minutes.

(3)  Dip into latex and hold there for four(4) minutes to build
     gauge.  Withdraw slowly.  Let drain until the final drop of
     latex falls off and invert.

(4)  Dry for 30 minutes at room temperature.

(5)  Dry for 30 minutes at 170-180°F.

(6)  Cure for one hour at 220°F.

(7)  Leach in 120°F. Water, used as a spray, or in a 
     continuous flow.

If more Gauge is desired, repeat steps 2 and 3 after 
completion of step 3 before proceeding with steps 4 thru 7.

01129E is used to produce flexible products such as Halloween 
masks by slush casting in plaster molds.  Shelf life of compound 
is excellent and will reproduce original viscosity after several 
months storage by normal mechanical mixing.  Compound must 
be protected from freezing.  Store under normal room conditions.  
Do not store in direct sunlight.

Viscosity (Brookfield) cps               300 - 600
Weight per gallon (lbs)                  8.72 

RECOMMENDED USAGE:

001711 is designed for slush casting in plaster of Paris molds. 
It is prevulcanized and exhibits good strength, which aids in 
mold stripping. This product has been formulated to eliminate 
the ammonia odor which normally exists with products of this 
type. The absence of ammonia odor makes this product 
exceptionally pleasant to work with in the manufacture of 
masks and other flexible products.

Strippable Coating

   001422
Polymer                                  prevulcanized natural latex

Total solids content %                   53 - 57
pH                                       9.5 minimum

Weight per gallon (lbs)                  8.3 

001422 is a white self curing latex coating for the protection 
of various surfaces.  Application may be made by spray, brush 
or roll.  At ambient temperatures, the drying time for 0.010 
film is approximately 30 minutes.  The time will vary with 
the relative humidity.  All surfaces to be sprayed with 
001422 should be thoroughly cleaned, free from oil, grease 
and dirt.  Three spray coatings or two roller coatings are 
then applied.

Proper care of the spray equipment is a must.  After completing 
the spray application, the excess latex should be removed 
from the spray pot or lines.  Then a solution of 5% - 10% 
soap solution should be sprayed through the gun, followed 
by clear water.

If applied by roller, the roller should be dipped in 5% - 10% 
soap solution and vigorously shaken to remove excess water.  
Then dip into the 001422 compound and apply.  After 
completing the application, the roller is then dipped repeatedly 
into the soap solution, rinsed with clear water and dried.
