Estimating the term…
An oil-sorbent composition of matter has bound combinations of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). The SBS, or both materials, may be in the form of multitudes of granules. In certain preferred embodiments, the combination is 10-30% by weight and the SBS is about 30% styrene and manufactured without talc. The composition of matter can be formed into a solid, compliant body and utilized in a product for absorbing oil. The body can be formed, in one preferred embodiment, into an extended cylinder having an axial hole.
A composition of matter comprising styrene-butadiene-styrene, predominately in the form of granules, embedded in an ethylene propylene diene monomer matrix.
A product for absorbing oil comprising a solid, compliant body comprised of styrene-butadiene-styrene, predominately in the form of a multitude of granules, and ethylene propylene diene monomer, predominately in the form of a multitude of granules, bound together.
A device for ameliorating oil spills comprising:
