摘要:
A method and product is disclosed which provides emulsion stability and filtration control to invert emulsion drilling fluids. The product comprises a blend of a carboxylic acid terminated polyamide and/or a wetting agent with a reaction product or mixture produced by the Diels-Alder reaction of dienophiles, preferably carboxylic acids, polycarboxylic acids, acid anhydrides, or combinations or mixes thereof, with a mixture of fatty acids and resin acids. The product of the invention is extremely effective, decreasing by about two-thirds the amount of emulsifier generally required to formulate an effective drilling fluid. The product of the invention also greatly reduces and in many cases eliminates the need for conventional fluid loss additives, and additionally provides electrical stability. Moreover, the product of the invention has a pour point as low as about 20 degrees Fahrenheit with minimal solvents, thereby eliminating the need to ship large amounts of inert material for use, and may be transported in a highly active state.

摘要:
Improved techniques for transferring media assets between a host computer and a media device are disclosed. The transfer of media assets between a host computer and a media device can be referred to as synchronization. According to one aspect of the invention, media assets being transferred can be formatted (e.g., rendered) in advance at the host computer and then delivered to the media device. According to another aspect of the invention, media assets can be grouped into collections and transferred on a collection basis. According to still another aspect of the invention, media assets to be transferred can be limited based on an amount of storage capacity available at the media device. According to yet another aspect of the invention, media assets of different media types can be transferred in accordance with different priorities.
摘要:
A method of preparing basic metal carbonate selected from the group consisting of zinc carbonate, nickel carbonate, silver carbonate, cobalt carbonate, tin carbonate, lead carbonate, manganese carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate, and potassium carbonate from metals comprising: contacting the metal with an aqueous solution comprising an amine, carbonic acid, and oxygen under conditions where the metal is converted into basic metal carbonate; and recovering the basic metal carbonate.
摘要:
A process is provided for etching a silicon-containing substrate. In the process, the surface of the substrate is cleaned. A film of alumina is deposited on the cleaned substrate surface. A silver film is deposited above the film of alumina. An etchant comprising HF is contacted with the silver film.
摘要:
In an aspect of the invention, a process to make a nanowire array is provided. In the process, silicon is deposited onto a conductive substrate comprising an organic material and optionally a conductive layer, thus forming a silicon-containing layer. Nanoparticles are deposited on top of the silicon-containing layer. Metal is deposited on top of the nanoparticles and silicon in such a way that the metal is present and touches silicon where etching is desired and is blocked from touching silicon or not present elsewhere. The metallized substrate is contacted with an etchant aqueous solution comprising about 2 to about 49 weight percent HF and an oxidizing agent.
