Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a primer for electric and percussion priming for use in accordance with the spark-gap principle which comprises a metallic capsule provided with a closed bottom, a thrust ring disposed inside of the metallic capsule and completely insulated therefrom by insulating means, and a gap charge provided inside the thrust ring and adjacent the closed bottom of the metallic capsule, the metallic capsule acting as a first lead electrode to the gap charge and the thrust ring acting as a second lead electrode for the gap charge.
Abstract:
A RESOL-BASED PHENOLIC RESIN FOAM HAVING AN IMPROVED RESISTANCE TO HEAT AND FIRE, HAVING A DENSITY OF ABOUT 20 TO 200 KG./M.3, A SHRINKAGE OF ABOUT 0.1 TO 2.8% AND THE ABSENCE OF THE ANY TENDENCY TO FISSURE UPON EXPOSURE FOR 30 MINUTES TO A TEMPERATURE OF 450*C. IN A MUFFLE FURNACE, THE SHRINKAGE AND FISSURING TESTS BEING MADE ON FOAM SLABS HAVING THE DIMENSIONS 250 MM. X 130 MM. X 30 MM. THE FOAM IS PRODUCED BY INCLUDING IN A LIQUID PHENOL-RESOL RESIN HAVING A SOLID RESIN CONTENT OF ABOUT 60 TO 85% BY WEIGHT ABOUT 2 TO 30% BY WEIGHT BASED ON THE RESIN, OF A NORMALLY HYDROCARBON LIQUID. BORIC ACID MAY ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE MIX WHICH ALSO CONTAINS AN ACID HARDENING AGENT AND A GAS FOAMING AGENT WHICH RELEASES A GAS OR IS A LOW-BOILING ORGANIC SOLVENT.
Abstract:
An electric detonator element in which an incandescent bridge, intended to set off a charge, is formed on one side of a nonconductive carrier which is inserted into a conductive housing and rests on its side opposite the bridge, against a center pole electrically connected with the housing by way of the bridge.
Abstract:
Dialkali salts of orthosilicic acid diesters, e.g. disodium orthosilicic acid dimethyl ester, are obtained by reaction of an alkali hydroxide with an orthosilicic acid tetraester. The dialkali salts of orthosilicic acid diesters are useful products for surface treatment of glass plates or glass fibers by tackling or etching.
Abstract:
THE PRESENT DISCLOSURE IS DIRECTED TO A SHAPED SECTION OF A THEMOPLASTIC SYNTHETIC MATERIAL CONTAINING AT LEAST ONE TONGUE PORTION AND AT LEAST ONE GROOVE PORTION FOR MUTUAL JOINING OR FOR FURTHER JOINING SAID SECTION WITH SIMILARLY SHAPED SECTIONS CONTAINING IDENTICAL TONGUE AND GROOVE PORTIONS WHEREIN THE CROSS-SECTIONAL CONFIGURATIONS OF
SAID TONGUE AND GROOVE PORTIONS ARE ADAPTED TO EACH OTHER SUCH THAT UPON INTERLOCKING WITH EACH OTHER, THEY ARE DEFORMED AND PRESSED TOGETHER IN A FLUSH UNION ALONG THEIR ENTIRE SURFACE.
Abstract:
Thermostable polyesters of formula (I) wherein n is 40-200, and the carbonyl and carboxy groups on the pheylene radical are in para or meta positions with respect to each other. The polyesters are useful as electrically insulating materials. They are produced by reaction of diacylchlorides of terephthalic or isophthalic acid with 4,4''-dihydroxytetraphenylmethane.
Abstract:
COMPOSITION OF MATTER SUITABLE FOR USE AS AN EXPLOSIVE PRIMER OR NOISEMAKER COMPRISING: (A) 20-70 WT. PERCENT OF AN ALLOY OF CERIUM AND MAGNESIUM IN THE PROPORTION OF CERIUM TO MAGNESIUM OF 4:6 TO 8.5:1.5. (B) 80-30 WT. PERCENT OF AN INORGANIC OXIDIZER FOR EXPLOSIVES.
Abstract:
NEW AND IMPROVED PROCESS OF PRODUCING POLYCARBOXY PENDANT POLYCARBONAMIDE POLYMERS SUITABLE FOR CYCLIZATION INTO POLYIMIDES BY FORMING A DISPERSION OF EACH REACTANT, THAT IS, A TETRACARBOXYLIC ACID (OR A CORRESPONDING MONO OR DIANHYDRIDE) AND A DIAMINE RESPECTIVELY, IN AN INERT SUBSTANTIALLY NON-POLAR, ORGANIC SUBSTANTIALLY ANHYDROUS LIQUID; AND THEN ADDING A POLAR ORGANIC SOLVENT SLOWLY TO THE DISPERSION EITHER CONTINUOUSLY OR INTERMITTENTLY, WITH STIRRING AND APPROPIATE HEAT CONTROL, WHEREBY SAID REACTANTS REACT TO FORM SAID POLYCARBOXYL PENDANT POLYCARBONAMIDE.
Abstract:
A vibration-sensitive electric switch comprising a housing and two contacts disposed therein, one of the contacts being a vibrating contact and coming into contact by vibrational movement with the other contact which is fixedly arranged in said housing, at least one of the contacts being deformable in the area of contact with the other contact, wherein the fixedly disposed contact and the vibrating contact overlap without contact at at least two points along their axial extension when the switch is in the armed position and wherein the fixedly disposed contact is continuously bent laterally by the vibrating contact when a predetermined accelerative force has been exceeded, whereby the vibrating contact in the deflected condition is in constant contact with the fixedly disposed contact.
