A method of injecting a hardenable mass into cracks in a structure includes drilling a borehole into the structure traversing the cracks. Inserting a tubular member into the borehole with the tubular member having an outside diameter smaller than the diameter of the borehole. Filling the gap between the borehole surface and the tubular member with a hardenable mass forming a seal of the gap at the opening into the borehole. After the seal has hardened, injecting a hardenable mass into the tubular member so that it flows into the borehole and enters into the cracks in the structure.

Method of consolidating cracks in a structure

Containers which hold a flowable composition are sealed by applying a material which in contact with the flowable composition forms a protective sealing layer in the area requiring a seal. An improved container assembly is disclosed comprising a cartridge containing a flowable composition and a piston inserted into one end of the cartridge to express the flowable composition therefrom, wherein the gap between the cartridge and the piston is sealed by a protective layer produced by reaction of the flowable composition and material applied to the surface of the flowable composition.

Sealing method and container assembly with improved seal

A new composition is disclosed which contains a cross linkable unsaturated polyester and a phenothiazine. The new composition has substantially improved shelf life and is particularly useful as an adhesive and for trowelling.
