摘要:
Partial esters of hydroxy-polycarboxylic acids having at least one unesterified carboxyl group and at least one other carboxyl group esterified with an alcohol having one to 20 repeating oxyalkylene groups and a terminal hydrocarbon radical are useful as additives for inhibiting corrosion and scale on metal parts in a circulating water system. Especially suitable for the use are alkyl polyoxyethylene alcohol partial esters of citric, malic and tartaric acids. Preparation and use of several preferred partial esters of the class are detailed.

A travel management system. In one implementation, a state-based desktop client provides a travel planning and management workspace for the user. The user may perform travel planning activities, and log out of the travel workspace without having to repeat travel planning tasks. In another implementation, travel planning tasks may be stored as data feeds that keep up-to-date fare and availability data even when the user is not logged into the travel workspace.
摘要:
For inhibiting corrosion and scale on ferrous metal parts in a circulating water system there is added to the water in such system from 10 to 500 ppm of a partial ester of a polyfunctional acid having a free carboxylate, phosphonate or sulfonate group and another carboxyl group which is esterified with a polyoxyalkylated derivative of an alkyl, alkaryl, or alkenyl alcohol having a terminal hydrocarbon group of 8-20 carbon atoms. In some preferred embodiments there is added with the partial ester from 10 to 500 ppm of a dispersible enhancing agent which may also include a surface active agent for dispersing the agent in water. Preferred partial esters include partial esters of citric, malic, tartaric, maleic, adipic and phthalic acids partially esterified with an alkyl polyoxyethylene alcohol having 2 to 4 ethoxy groups.

The present invention allows a user or community of users to rate content across a variety of web sites and display contextual sensitive reviews. Rather than the rating information being controlled by the web site owner, the rating information may be owned and controlled by a third party. Users have the ability to rate a web site, review ratings from a web site, or operate a web site rating system.
