Disclosed are compositions of fillers coated with adhesion promoting material alone, or also coated with an additive, processes for producing the coated fillers, the fillers obtained from those processes, and methods of using the coated fillers. The filler particle(s) are surface-treated with a component which assists in the adhesion/adherance of an additive to the filler particles, resulting in the desired additive-coated fillers. The filler, adhesion promoting material and additive can be mixed in slurry and dried, and the resulting filler particles are directly useful in many applications, such as paper coatings, plastic compositions (both foamed and non-foamed), inks, paints, cosmetics, textiles and the like, wherever such fillers now find application. Preferably, the additive is a colorant.

There is disclosed a process for producing alkenyl aromatic foams utilizing a combination of atmospheric and organic gases as blowing agent, preferably using greater than 30% by weight of atmospheric gas, and preferably also using a predetermined about of a masterbatch mix comprising a styrenic polymer, a rubbery block copolymer, and a solid blowing agent. Also disclosed are alkenyl aromatic foams produced by the process which exhibit increased densities, increased thermoforming capabilities, increased post-expansion properties, and increased retainment of the atmospheric and organic gases.

Processes for producing alkenyl aromatic foams utilizing a cycloaliphatic gas as blowing agent, are described. Also disclosed are alkenyl aromatic foams produced by the process which exhibit increased thermal insulation properties.

Process for producing alkenyl aromatic foams having increased thermal insulation using cycloalkane blowing agent and foams produced thereby

Process for producing alkenyl aromtic foams utilizing a cycloaliphatic gas as blowing agent, are described. Also disclosed are alkenyl aromatic foams produced by the process which exhibit increased thermal insulation properties.

Process for producing alkenyl aromatic foams using a combination of

A fiber reinforced, thermoplastic foam is produced by dispersing fibers of controlled dimensions and blowing agent in molten thermoplastic and extruding the mixture with high back pressures. As the blowing agent expands, the fibers become randomly oriented and a fine cellular structure is formed in the plastic which freezes the fibers in a random spatial orientation. The resulting reinforced foam may be used as formed or compacted to collapse the foam and then shaped.

A kit includes, in a preferred embodiment, untreated, undyed woven velvet-covered shoes, handbags, belts or costume accessories are supplied with an applicator holding a measured mount of a dye plus a finishing solution and a fixer. The velvet is made substantially of cellulosic yarns and the dye is cellulose specific. The finishing solution and fixer are applied, if a sheen is desired, then the dye is applied by brushing the item with the applicator tip until the dye has saturated the item and is used up. The item is allowed to stand at room temperature for at least 24 hours for the dye to set. Bleaching the dye from the item with a reducing agent prepares it for re-dyeing.

Velvet dyeing kit and method

The present invention relates to a process to produce polystyrene foam comprising mixing a predetermined amount of masterbatch mix and a styrenic polymer, heating this mixture, injecting CO.sub.2 and/or nitrogen, in gas or liquid form, as a blowing agent and subsequently extruding, cooling and drying the resulting polystyrene foam.
