Ravi K. Sura - Woodbury MN
Philip P. Soo - Fullerton CA
Assignee:
3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
C08J 928
US Classification:
521 505, 521 64, 522 84

US Patent:
6977113, Dec 20, 2005
Filed:
Oct 9, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/974040
Inventors:
Robert S. Kody - Minneapolis MN, US
Mario A. Perez - Burnsville MN, US
John W. Longabach - White Bear Lake MN, US
Kimberley D. Klepzig - Saint Paul MN, US
John M. Sebastian - Maplewood MN, US
Terry R. Hobbs - Saint Paul MN, US
Matthew J. Michel - Saint Paul MN, US
Timothy J. Lindquist - Saint Paul MN, US
Ravi K. Sura - Woodbury MN, US
Assignee:
3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
D04H001/00
B32B027/04
US Classification:
4282921, 4282974
Abstract:
Microfiber articles and methods and intermediates for their production, the microfiber articles being preferably produced from co-extruded multi-layer films, and the articles having a multi-layer construction that allows selection of the different layers to have different properties.

Foam And Method Of Making

View page
US Patent:
7094463, Aug 22, 2006
Filed:
Dec 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/334412
Inventors:
Christopher K. Haas - Cottage Grove MN, US
Mark D. Gehlsen - Eagan MN, US
Sara B. Mortenson - Somerville MA, US
Joan M. Strobel - Maplewood MN, US
Ravi K. Sura - Woodbury MN, US
David L. Vall - Woodbury MN, US
Assignee:
3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
B32B 3/26
US Classification:
4283157, 4283155, 4283166, 4283193, 4283197, 4283171, 521142, 521143
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a process for producing a polypropylene foam by mixing a high melt strength polypropylene and a blowing agent to form a melt mixture, reducing the temperature of the melt mixture at the exit of the apparatus to an exit temperature that is no more than 30 C. above the melt temperature of the neat polypropylene while maintaining the melt mixture at a pressure sufficient to prevent foaming; passing the mixture through said exit shaping orifice and exposing the mixture to atmospheric pressure, whereby the blowing agent expands causing cell formation resulting in foam formation, and orienting said foam. The foam is useful as tape backings, thermal and acoustical insulation and as a diffuse reflector for use in optical applications such as computer displays.

Integrally Foamed Microstructured Article

View page
US Patent:
7883769, Feb 8, 2011
Filed:
Jun 18, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/464215
Inventors:
Jayshree Seth - Woodbury MN, US
Christopher K. Haas - Cottage Grove MN, US
Ravi K. Sura - Woodbury MN, US
Katherine A. S. Graham - Roseville MN, US
Janet A. Venne - Roseville MN, US
Assignee:
3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN
International Classification:
B32B 3/26
B32B 3/06
US Classification:
4283148, 4283144, 4283166, 428 99, 428100
Abstract:
The invention is directed in part to an article that includes a polymer foam having a surface with surface microstructures, the surface microstructures have at least one extent or dimension of about 10 microns or more, preferably 50 microns or more. A maximum extent (unless it is a continuous rib-like structure) the microstructure is about 300 microns or less, preferably 200 microns or less, and generally a maximum height of 1000 microns or less, preferably 750 microns or less and a minimum height of 200 microns or more, preferably 300 microns or more. The foamed article may be provided in a variety of shapes, including a rod, a cylinder, a sheet, etc. In a preferred embodiment where the foam is provided in the form of a sheet, the foam has a pair of major surfaces, one or both of which can be provided with surface microstructures. The foam backing and microstructures include a plurality of voids, which voids are preferably of a mean size substantially less than the smallest cross-sectional dimension or extent of the microstructures.
