摘要:
Bilayer materials are produced by drying a solution of an alkali metal silicate upon the surface of a flexible backing material until a flexible silicate film is produced. The film may be separated from the backing material and incorporated into laminated fire resistant glazings. The alkali metal silicate solution preferably comprise a surfactant. The bilayers may be transported or stored before the flexible silicate film is separated and incorporated into a glazing.

Fire resistant glazings comprise a fire resistant interlayer based upon a silicate waterglass are characterised by the incorporation of aluminium ions. The aluminate is incorporated as a solution which has been partially neutralised using hydroxycarboxylic acid which is preferably citric acid. The incorporation of aluminium provides glazings have improved fire resistance and impact properties.
摘要:
Solutions comprising a sodium silicate waterglass having a modulus of less than 3 and at least 8% by weight of an organic polyhydroxy compound such as glycerol are useful in the production of interlayers used in fire resistant glass laminates. The solutions are dried on a flat surface such as glass to produce a clear intumescent interlayer having improved impact resistance. The dried interlayer may be removed from the surface in the form of an elastomeric material which may also be used as an interlayer in a fire resistant glazing.
摘要:
Novel waterglass compositions comprise a zirconium containing anionic aggregate, preferably potassium zirconium carbonate or ammonium zirconium carbonate, in a quantity sufficient to provide at least 0.5% as zirconium metal. The compositions can be dried and/or gelled to form optically clear interlayers useful in the production of fire resistant glass laminates. The incorporation of the zirconium containing aggregate improves the fire resistant performance of the laminates.

Embodiments herein provide a non-invasive tracking system that accurately predicts the location of tumors, such as lung tumors, in real time, while allowing patients to breathe naturally. This is accomplished by using Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT), in conjunction with spirometry, strain gauge and infrared sensors, and by using sophisticated patient-specific mathematical models that incorporate the dynamics of tumor motion. With the direction and speed of lung tumor movement successfully tracked, radiation may be effectively delivered to the lung tumor and not to the surrounding healthy tissue, thus increased radiation dosage may be directed to improving local tumor control without compromising functional parenchyma.

The invention is a rack holding hockey sticks and other sporting equipment. The base is comprised of a member to which is attached at right angles another two members on opposite sides and a post rising vertically from the point of attachment. A second vertical member slides over the first vertical member. Near the top of the second vertical member are attached two members. Attached to these two members are two additional members at right angles. To each of those members are attached a plurality of other members at right angles projecting outwards. There are two additional members attached lower on the second vertical member. Each of these members have an additional member attached at right angles and a plurality of members attached to such member at right angles, which members extend inwards towards the vertical member.

An electrostatic chuck for receiving a substrate in a substrate processing chamber comprises a ceramic puck having a substrate receiving surface and an opposing backside surface with a plurality of spaced apart mesas. An electrode is embedded in the ceramic puck to generate an electrostatic force to hold a substrate. Heater coils located at peripheral and central portions of the ceramic puck allow independent control of temperatures of the central and peripheral portions of the ceramic puck. The chuck is supported by a base having a groove with retained air. The chuck and base can also have an overlying edge ring and clamp ring.

A method of processing a workpiece in the chamber of a plasma reactor includes introducing a process gas into the chamber, simultaneously (a) capacitively coupling VHF plasma source power into a process region of the chamber that overlies the wafer, and (b) inductively coupling RF plasma source power into the process region, and controlling dissociation of species in the process region by controlling the effective frequency of the VHF source power. In a preferred embodiment, the step of coupling VHF source power is performed by coupling VHF source power from different generators having different VHF frequencies, and the step of controlling the effective frequency is performed by controlling the ratio of power coupled by the different generators.
摘要:
A bonded multi-layer RF window may include an external layer of dielectric material having desired thermal properties, an internal layer of dielectric material exposed to plasma inside a reaction chamber, and an intermediate layer of bonding material between the external layer and the internal layer. Heat produced by the chemical reaction inside the chamber and by the transmission of RF energy through the window may be conducted from the internal layer to the external layer, which may be cooled during a semiconductor wafer manufacturing process. A bonded multi-layer RF window may include cooling conduits for circulating coolant to facilitate cooling of the internal layer; additionally or alternatively, gas distribution conduits and gas injection apertures may be included for delivering one or more process gases into a reaction chamber. A system including a plasma reaction chamber may employ the inventive bonded multi-layer RF window.
