Abstract

Disclosed herein are compositions which are exothermic upon contact with oxygen and are self-steaming. The various described embodiments include compositions comprising: (a) a fuel component; (b) a water manager component;
and (c) water. In one embodiment, the water manager component, has a mean particle size distribution of greater than about 250 microns. Alternatively or additionally, the ratio of the water manager component to the water is from about 0.001:1 to about 0.2:1, by weight. Alternatively or additionally, the fuel component comprises sponge iron. Alternatively or additionally, the composition comprises a volatile component. In yet another embodiment, articles comprising the compositions are described. Further, methods of making the compositions are described.

Claims (12)

1. A composition comprising:

a) a fuel component having a mean particle size distribution of at least 100 microns;

b) a water manager component having a mean particle size distribution of greater than 250 microns; and c) water;

wherein the composition is exothermic upon contact with oxygen and is self-steaming.
2. The composition according to Claim 1 wherein the fuel component has a mean particle size distribution of from 100 microns to 300 microns.
3. The composition according to Claim 1 or Claim 2 wherein the water manager component has a mean particle size distribution of at least 400 microns, preferably from 400 microns to 800 microns.
4. The composition according to any preceding claim further comprising a volatile component.
5. The composition according to any preceding claim wherein the fuel component comprises a material selected from metals, metal salts, carbon, and mixtures thereof, preferably a mixture of iron, a metal salt, and activated carbon, more preferably a mixture of sponge iron, a metal salt, and activated carbon.
6. The composition according to Claim 5 comprising from 30% to 95% of the iron, from 0.5%
to 10% of the metal salt, from 0.5% to 25% of the activated carbon, and from 1% to 60% of the water, all by weight of the composition.
7. The composition according to any preceding claim wherein the water manager component comprises a material selected from vermiculite, porous silicates, wood powder, wood flour, cotton, paper, vegetable matter, absorbent gelling material, carboxymethylcellulose salts, inorganic salts, and mixtures thereof, preferably absorbent gelling material.
8. The composition according to any preceding claim wherein the composition comprises from 0.1% to 30% of the water manager component, by weight of the composition.

10. An article comprising:

a) a composition according to any preceding claim; and b) a material having an oxygen permeability of at least 10 ft3/min, preferably at least 20 ft3/min, more preferably 20 ft3/min to 150 ft3/min.
11. The article according to Claim 3 wherein the material is selected from woven fabrics, knit fabrics, nonwovens, and combinations thereof and wherein the material which is impermeable to air is selected from polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, polyester, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polyurethane, polystyrene, saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, natural rubber, reclaimed rubber, synthetic rubber, and mixtures thereof.
12. A method of making the composition of any of Claims 1 to 9 wherein the method comprises mixing the fuel component, the water manager component, and the water, wherein the fuel component comprises carbon and wherein the method comprises prewetting the carbon prior to mixing the carbon with the water manager component.
