Abstract: A method of preparing photochromic materials useful for optical applications, and photochromic materials prepared by such method, are described. Such method comprises polymerizing a blend of a polyol[(meth)acryloyl terminated carbonate] monomer and a photochromic amount of an organic photochromic substance, thereby forming a photochromic material. A preferred polyol[(meth)acryloyl terminated carbonate] monomer is diethylene glycol bis[(methacryloyloxy)ethylene carbonate]. Polymerization may be performed by free radical initiation using thermal initiators, photoinitiators or a combination of such initiators. Photochromic materials prepared by such method may be used in optical applications, e.g., photochromic lenses.

Abstract: A shear layer of a fluid flow has relatively large vortical structures generated by acoustic forcing from oscillations induced in a cavity closely adjacent to the flow so that these structures enhance mixing at the layer. The forcing frequency is selected by varying the dimensions of the cavity, and several cavities of different dimensions may be provided for forcing at different frequencies, including beat frequencies. The cavity provides passive, high amplitude forcing effective with a compressible shear layer due to high speed flow, including supersonic flow. Cavities of differing configuration provide forcing for fluid flow from nozzles of different geometries. The most effective enhancement is provided by particular excitation frequencies generated by a cavity having a size selected in accordance with dimensionless relations between the flow parameters and nozzle geometry.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for recovering arsenic acid from a starting mixture comprising sulfuric and arsenic acids and water. In step (a), the starting mixture is treated with a sulfur (IV) compound which will reduce the arsenic acid to arsenic (III) compound under conditions sufficient to substantially convert the arsenic acid to arsenic (III) wherein the resulting mixture comprises arsenic (III) compound, the sulfur (IV) compound, sulfuric acid, and water. In step (b), the resulting mixture is purged with gas to substantially remove the sulfur (IV) compound from the mixture wherein the purged mixture comprises the arsenic (III) compounds, sulfuric acid, and water. In step (c), the purged mixture is treated under conditions sufficient to substantially separate the arsenic (III) compounds from the purged mixture. In step (d), the separated arsenic (III) compound is reacted with an oxidizing agent to substantially convert arsenic (III) compound to arsenic acid wherein the final mixture comprises arsenic acid, unreacted oxidizing agent, and water. In step (e), impurities are removed from the final mixture to provide substantially pure aqueous arsenic acid.

Abstract: A method is provided wherein the equilibrium HF concentration in the mixture of HF, sulfuric acid and water fed to an HF reaction furnace is greatly reduced by injecting a controlled amount of steam into an HF-removal process wherein the sulfuric acid mixture is also contacted with the hot HF gas leaving the HF reaction furnace. Reducing the HF concentration in this manner significantly improves furnace performance.The purpose of injecting steam is to adjust the water content of the mixture to the optimum value (about 12.5 weight percent) for HF removal, as well as to supply the heat required for HF removal without the need for an indirect heat exchanger.An additional advantage to this method is that since direct steam injection adds water to the process, in order to keep the furnace feed acid water concentration at the desirable level of less than 1%, oleum or SO.sub.3 must be added to react with the excess water. Since the reaction of water and SO.sub.3 is exothermic, this supplies additional heat to the process and no indirect heat exchanger is needed to achieve the desired high furnace feed acid temperature (>100.degree. C.).

Abstract: Microstrip transmission of electrical signals between two arrays of signal conductors such as two printed circuit boards is maintained in an electrical connector in which signal contacts are disposed on opposite sides of the central ground bus. Signal contacts are urged inwardly into engagement with a central dielectric wall and a ground bus is similarly urged outwardly into engagement with the same wall to establish the microstrip configuration between each row of terminals in the central ground bus. The receptacle connector includes a right angle bend and signal contacts as well as the ground bus also have a right angle bend. The insulative housing of a right angle connector comprises upper and lower housing members which are snapped into engagement. Resilient arms, forming a part of the connector mounting assembly on the upper housing member, engage the lower housing member to hold it in place.

Abstract: The present invention provides an automated rigid-disk finishing system with "fly-by-wire" control of each of the relevant parameters involved in the texturing process. The system includes an abrasive tape, a means for forcibly pressing the tape against the substrate to cut microscopic grooves into the substrate's surface, and a control means for simultaneously controlling the speed and tension of the tape and for sensing the tension developed in the tape on both sides of the tape/substrate interface. The described system is thus capable of establishing tape speed and tape tension simultaneously, while providing a measure of the actual work being accomplished on the rigid disk surface.
