Abstract

Abstract A two-compartment pierceable cartridge adapted for reinforcing or strengthening a stone or coal wall by insertion into a hole that had been bored into the wall, one compartment of which contains a polyisocyanate of diphenylmethane, and the other compartment of which contains a mixture of a polyetherglycol having a hydroxyl number between 200 and 400, between 10 and 20 percent by weight of a plasticizer, and between 0.3 and 5.0 percent by weight of water. When the cartridge is broken up and its contents are mixed, a foamed polyurethane resin is formed in situ which plugs the bored hole and thereby reinforces the wall.

Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
A two-compartment cartridge as defined in claim 1 in which one compartment contains a mixture of 4,4''-bis(carbonylamino)diphenylmethane and at most 30 percent by weight of another polyisocyanate of an aromatic hydrocarbon.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 33 words
A two-compartment cartridge as defined in claim 1 in which at least the wall separating the two compartments from each other is formed of a film that is essentially impervious to water vapor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 40 words
A two-compartment cartridge as defined in claim 1 in which the wall separating the two compartments from each other is formed of a composite film consisting of a layer of a polyethylene resin and a layer of a polyamide resin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 26 words
