A highway warning system which is capable of being temporarily secured to the road surface and easily removed from the road surface and provides drivers with an audible and vibration warning when approaching roadway construction sites. The system being a mat or plurality of mats temporarily secured to the road surface, the mat or mat having a wave-like upper surface defined by a series of alternating wave heights and troughs which when contacted by the wheels of a vehicle provide an audible sound as well as a slight vibration thereby warning the approaching driver to be alert.

Highway warning device

Aqueous lubricant dispersions having a solids content of from about 45% by weight to about 75% by weight contain calcium stearate and a lubricant component with or without a dispersing agent or urea for addition to aqueous paper and paperboard coating compositions.

Lubricant additives for paper coating compositions

This invention relates generally to insolubilizers for use with binders in paper coating compositions. There is provided a process for preparing both an insolubilizer and paper coating composition containing the insolubilizer and a binder which, when applied onto paper products, significantly enhances their wet-rub resistance. The insolubilizer is prepared by: (a) forming a glyoxal-urea adduct by reacting from about 1.0 to about 4.0 moles of glyoxal with about 1.0 mole of urea, at an elevated temperature, (b) cooling the glyoxal-urea adduct to room temperature, (c) adding from about 0.5 to about 2.0 moles of free glyoxal to the glyoxal-urea adduct to form an oligomer, and (d) adjusting the pH of the oligomer to from about 5 to about 7.
