Abstract:
An absorbent article, preferably a disposable absorbent article such as a diaper, is disclosed that provides an improved immobilization of absorbent polymer material when the article is fully or partially urine loaded. This absorbent core is useful for providing an absorbent article of increased wearing comfort. Specifically disclosed is an absorbent core useful for an absorbent article comprising a substrate layer and absorbent material, the absorbent material comprising an absorbent polymer material, the absorbent material optionally comprising absorbent fibrous material, the absorbent fibrous material not representing more than 20% of the weight of absorbent polymer material, wherein the absorbent material is immobilized when wet such that the absorbent core achieves a wet immobilization of more than 50%, preferably of more than 60%, 70%, 80% or 90% according to the Wet Immobilization Test described herein.
Abstract:
Two-part implant for attachment of artificial teeth comprising a base body having a bone contact surface and a soft tissue contact surface. Said soft tissue contact surface is at least partially hydroxylated or silanated which results in an improved soft tissue integration.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pressure plate arrangement for joining together a plurality of material webs each comprising at least one plain web and/or at least one corrugated web, to form a corrugated cardboard web (P), at least one of the material webs being provided with adhesive at least in sections. The arrangement comprises a contact pressure unit (14) provided with a pressure plate (22), and a heatable counterpressure plate (26), between which the material webs being joined together are passed. The contact pressure unit (14) and the pressure plate (22) are arranged to be approachable to or removable from the counterpressure plate (26), wherein the pressure plate (22) is also constructed to be heatable. The invention also relates to apparatus for joining together a plurality of material webs comprising a plurality of such pressure plate arrangements.
Abstract:
An electrochemical gas detector based on an electrolytic measurement cell having a normally solid organic electrolyte. The gas component to be detected diffuses out of the gas chamber at a three phase border (electrolyte-electrode-gas chamber) and there causes a change in the electrochemical equilibrium. As a result in an outer closing circuit a measurable electrical current is produced. The electrolyte consists of an anhydrous organic gel with a very low vapor pressure. The gas chamber adjacent to the three phase border constitutes a partly sealed cavity, which is in communication with the gas atmosphere to be examined via an absorption filter selectively permeable to the measurement component. The length of the cavity is dimensioned so as to be so short that practically no back diffusion of the measurement component through the filter takes place.
Abstract:
In an apparatus for the discontinuous dosing of a constant quantity of fluid into an analysis device, the fluid feed system is connected by means of a three-way valve on the one hand via the dosing valve and a shut off valve arranged downstream and on the other hand via a by-pass to the fluid discharge system. A compressed air source for the production of a constant air pressure is connected between the three-way valve and the dosing valve. All the components of the system are controlled by a programme control unit, so that the fluid flow through the dosing valve is temporarily interrupted by closing the shut off valve and switching over the fluid feed to the by-pass and at the same time releasing the connection of the compressed air to the dosing valve. Thereafter the compressed air source is switched off by the control unit and the interruption of the fluid flow at the dosing valve is cancelled.

Abstract:
An absorbent article, preferably a disposable absorbent article such as a diaper, is disclosed having an absorbent core which imparts increased wearing comfort to the article and makes it thin and dry. The absorbent core useful for an absorbent article comprises a substrate layer, a discontinuous layer of absorbent material, and a layer of thermoplastic material. A second surface of the discontinuous layer of absorbent material is in at least partial contact with a first surface of the substrate layer. Portions of a second surface of the layer of thermoplastic material are in direct contact with the first surface of the substrate layer and portions of said second surface of the layer of thermoplastic material are in direct contact with a first surface of the discontinuous layer of absorbent material. A process for providing a storage layer for an absorbent core useful in an absorbent article is further disclosed.
