摘要:
Method and arrangement for spray forming an article. The method includes spraying a plurality of metal streams upon a low-heat resistant model and thereby forming a spray formed article. Each of the plurality of metal streams is composed of moltenized droplets, and as between the plurality of metal streams, each is composed of different constituent elements. In the spray form process, conditions of the metal streams are controlled, particularly around the time that the droplets land, to prevent adverse affects such as melting or burning the master model. The spray conditions are controlled in such a manner that the individual metal droplets forming the metal streams remain substantially segregate. The segregated state is maintained through out solidification so that the resulting spray formed article is composed at least partially of psuedo-alloy.

摘要:
A method for the detection of chemical agent present in a material comprising exposing a calixarene, having redox active substituents on its para rim, to a solution or suspension derived by admixture of all or some of the material with a liquid measuring any change in electrical behavior of the calixarene during or after exposure to the solution or suspension as compared to a reference condition, and relating such change in electrical behavior to the presence of chemical agent. Preferably, the calixarene exposed to the solution or suspension is a calix�4!arene or general formula (J), wherein Y.sup.1 to Y.sup.4 are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, aralkyl or a redox active substituent and R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, aralkyl, or a polymerisable moiety, wherein at least one of Y.sup.1 to Y.sup.4 is a redox active substituent.
