Filed:

Aug 28, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/230047

Inventors:

Glenn H. Lewis - Park Ridge IL, US

International Classification:

C09G001/04

US Classification:

106 3, 106 10, 106271

Abstract:

Water based waxing mixtures for protecting surfaces providing ionically neutral ingredients adhering to the surface while repelling environmental impurities, such as dirt. Surface precleaning need not precede the wax application because of an exchange, which takes place between the mixture and surface dirt. The mixture constitutes an emulsion of an organic phase in an aqueous phase. The aqueous phase amounts to 70 percent to 92 percent by weight, while the organic phase provides the remainder of the mixture and contains suspended waxes. The organic phase includes natural waxes, silicone compounds, nonionic emulsifiers and suspending agents. The mixture may be applied to wet or dry surfaces in shade or bright sunlight and then wiped off to leave a durable shine. The compound finds use on painted, polished, or smooth texture surfaces such as on an automobile. Surfactants and suspending agents stabilize the phase ingredients to allow suspension of the wax in the water.

Appl. No.:

7/333460

Inventors:

Glenn R. Lewis - Lawrenceville GA

Assignee:

Measurex Corporation - Cupertino CA

International Classification:

G06F 1546
D21F 102

US Classification:

364471

Abstract:

A sheet manufacturing system having a steam profiling bar, a moisture profiling bar, a moisture sensor and a computer is disclosed. The computer is programmed to cause the correct amount of steam or water to be applied on a slice-by-slice basis based upon the mositure content profile data generated by the moisture sensor as compared against a preprogrammed, desired moisture content profile. The computer is programmed in such a way as to cause either steam or water, but not both, to be applied as needed to any given portion of each individual slice to achieve the desired moisture content profile. Thus, the combined application of both steam and water to the same portion of the sheet, and the nullifying effects thereof, are avoided, resulting in the use of less steam and less water while still providing full control over the moisture content profile with only one moisture sensor.
