摘要:
A composition for preventing or retarding the formation of gas hydrates or for reducing the tendency of gas hydrates to agglomerate, during the transport of a fluid comprising water and a hydrocarbon, through a conduit, comprising, (a) a polymer or copolymer selected from a terpolymer of vinyl pyrrolidone, vinyl caprolactam and an ammonium derivative monomer having from 6 to 12 carbon atoms, selected from the group consisting of dialkyl aminoalkyl methacrylamide, dialkyl dialkenyl ammonium halide and a dialkylamino alkyl acrylate or methacrylate, a copolymer of vinyl pyrrolidone and vinyl caprolactam, and a homopolymer of vinyl caprolactam, and (b) an alcohol containing three to five carbon atoms and one hydroxy group, or a low molecular weight glycol ether containing an alkoxy group having at least 3 carbon atoms.
摘要:
A pack (1) for smoking articles such as cigarettes has a sealed enclosure of barrier material, with a resealable access aperture to the enclosure. A cover (7) over that aperture has on all its openable edges a permanently tacky surface overlapping over the barrier material there. The cover has a non-adhesive tab (10) to assist opening.
摘要:
Toric surfaces are mounted on a transparent support plate and measured at grazing incidence using a pair of leading and following diffractive optics for diffracting a test beam with respect to a reference beam. The leading diffractive optic diffracts rays of the test beam through various diffraction angles so that after passing through the transparent support plate, the rays strike the toric surface at a constant grazing angle. The following diffractive optic further diffracts the rays of the test beam through other diffraction angles into realignment with the reference beam.
摘要:
A multi-lumen catheter (10) having a reinforcing member (42) wrapped around at least one of the lumens (40) in a helical manner. An inflation lumen (43) is positioned outside the reinforcing member (42) for inflating a balloon (11) carried by the catheter (10). A two-lumen extrusion (339A) is bonded to the reinforced lumen (337A) to form the multi-lumen catheter. The multi-lumen catheter is particularly useful as an aortic occlusion catheter.

A cosmetic composition for rejuvenating the appearance of skin with reduced or minimal potential for skin irritation, in the form of a lotion, creme, solution or gel, includes an aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic solution of a polymer having a carboxylic acid functionality, the solution having a pH of 1.5 to 5.
摘要:
Thickness variations of semiconductor wafers are measured by interfering two beams of infrared light that are relatively modified by reflections from opposite side surfaces of the wafers. Non-null interferometric measurements are made by illuminating the wafers with diverging beams and subtracting errors caused by varying angles of incidence. Null interferometric measurements are made of both thickness variations and flatness. Infrared light, which can transmit through the wafers, is used for measuring thickness variations; and visible light, which cannot transmit through the wafers, is used for simultaneously measuring flatness.
摘要:
This invention relates to a mixture of imageable polyacetylenic compounds which have similar photosensitivities and which are visually imageable in complementary colors combinable to provide a black image, which mixture contains at least one polyacetylenic metal salt which produces a color, preferably a metal salt of a diacetylene C6 to C48 mono- or dicarboxylic acid, which is complementary to a color produced by another polyacetylenic metal salt or non-metallic polyacetylenic compound contained in the mixture or in an another integral color forming layer. The invention also pertains to the use of said mixture and the manner of its preparation.
摘要:
This invention relates to the synthesis of vegetable and synthetic oil adducts prepared by Diels-Alder condensation reaction between an unsaturated mono- or di-ester and di- or tri- ester of linoleic, linolenic and/or ricinoleic acid which esters include certain vegetable oils and synthetic oils.
摘要:
Stable, water-based formulations containing high levels of water insoluble UV protectants/insecticides are provided herein as sprayable microemulsions containing a film-forming polymer, e.g. Agrimer® VEMA ES 425 [poly(methyl vinyl ether-maleic acid monobutyl ester)]. The polymers are solubilized either by partial neutralization with a base, or by emulsification with appropriate emulsifiers. These formulations produce single phase, micro- or mini-emulsions (particle size
摘要:
This invention relates to a fast drying iodine complex solution having film forming capability and skin substantivity which solution consists essentially of: (a) between 1 and 25 wt.% polyvinylpyrrolidone/iodine (PVP/I) complex; (b) between 5 and 15 wt.% vinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer (PVP/VA); (c) between 0.5 and 1.5 wt.% non-plasticizing polyethylene glycol (PEG); (d) between 35 and 75 wt.% C1 to C4 alkanol; (e) between 12 and 35 wt.% deionized water; and (f) between 0 and 2.5 wt.% of 1-vinyl-3-(E)-ethylidene pyrrolidone, based on total composition. The invention also relates to the method of preparing the film forming solution which has a drying time of less than 5 minutes.
