A formulation includes a polymeric material, a nucleating agent, a blowing, and a surface active agent. The formulation can be used to form a container.

A foamable polymeric mixture is provided that includes a polymer composition and at least one blowing agent. The blowing agent may comprise any blowing agents known not to deplete the ozone or increase the prevalence of global warming, such as CO.sub.2, HFO, HFC and mixtures thereof. The foamable polymeric mixture may further includes at least one processing aid comprising an organic phase changing material. The inventive foamable mixture is capable of processing at a pressure range of 800 to 1200 psi (5.5 to 8.3 MPa).

The present invention relates to a system of delivering at least two different reactive fluids to an applicator utilizing a pressurized gas. A method of delivery is also disclosed.

An apparatus, for producing a mixture of at least one gas and at least one liquid plastic component, includes a mixing device that is connected, via a first pipe, to an introducing device for the at least one gas and is connected, via a second pipe, to a conveying device for the at least one liquid plastic component. The introducing device and the conveying device are piston pumps that have pistons.

A low pressure limited overspray handheld aerosol spray gun for spraying a two-component adhesive, a method for spraying a two-component adhesive and a two-component adhesive obtainable by that method. In manufacturing of larger objects, such as matrasses and furniture, adhesives are often applied to fix parts of the large object together. Most adhesives are applied using either air-spray equipment or air-assisted spray equipment.

A spray gun for a plural component system is provided. The spray gun includes a first component delivery line and a second component delivery line. The spray gun also includes a nozzle, configured to receive and mix a first component received from the first component delivery line with a second component received from the second component delivery line. The spray gun also includes an air purge system configured to, when the spray gun is in a non-actuated position, purge the nozzle of the first and second components and, when the spray gun is in an actuated position, aid in atomization of the mixture of the first and second components.
