2081918 9117203 PCTABS00008 The invention relates to crosslinked oriented high molecular weight polyethylene, containing up to 30 % (wt) crosslinked poly-1,4-butadiene. The poly-1,4-butadiene preferably consists for at least 90 % (mole) of poly-trans-1,4-butadiene. The invention also relates to a process for preparing articles from such polyethylene.

A direct contact crystallizer having a vertically oriented draft tube into which gas or vaporized liquid is injected and through which a crystal slurry is drawn for cooling and agitation.

The present invention concerns an arrangement for clamping a filter cartridge 3 with filter hoses 4 against such parts 14 of a filter container 1 that a zone 15 in the filter container for contaminated gases is separated in a gastight manner from a zone 16 for clean gases, in order to ensure that contaminated gas flows into the filter hoses and, via these, to the zone for clean gases. Compressed a...

Containers made from polymeric material comprising: a shaped first material layer formed from a linear alternating polyketone polymer having repeating units of the formula -CO &lparstr& A &rparstr& wherein A represents a moiety derived from the same or different ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbons polymerized through the ethylenic linkage, a cooperatively shaped second material layer formed ...

A vapor-tight package has a deposit comprising nonmetallic, microwave-absorbing particles such as graphite dispersed in nonmetallic binder. When heated in a microwave oven, heat built up in the particles may soften and weaken the underlying packaging material, thus venting the package. When the deposit itself is impervious to vapors, it can be positioned over an opening in the package, and the hea...

A novel cover (38, 40, 48) arrangement is described for use with foodstuff holding pans (30) to be heated in a microwave oven. The cover is one which in terms of microwave energy, does not transmit reflected energy. Thus, the cover acts in a manner analogous with non-reflecting coatings in optics and permits passage of the microwave radiation into the container holding the foodstuff (18), while su...

Pyrimidine 4 min -thionucleosides of the formula I wherein Y is hydroxy or amino, and X is chloro, bromo, iodo, trifluoromethyl, C2-6 alkyl, C2-6 alkenyl, C2-6 haloalkenyl or C2-6 alkynyl and physiologically functional derivatives thereof. These compounds have utility as anti-viral agents.

This invention relates to certain aristeromycin/adenosine derivatives which are useful in inhibiting AdoMet-dependent transmethylation and in the treatment of patients afflicted with neoplastic or viral disease states.

2081320 9117169 PCTABS00008 Phosphoramidite derivatives of formulae (V) or (XII), wherein X is a reporter group and Y and Z are protecting groups. The reporter group X may comprise any hapten or other detectable moiety and examples include boitin, dinitrophenyl, dansyl and fluoresceinyl. There may be a linker arm, of variable length, between the reporter group and the rest of the molecule. Example...

A method and an apparatus for displacing of particles on and into a loose layer of material, for instance a mineral wool layer (2) by means of an apparatus comprising means, for instance one or more conveyors (4, 10) for continuously advancing the layer of material and means for subjecting the layer of material to a constant force and concurrently therewith an oscillation energy within the acousti...

1. End piece (5) for roller door profiles (6) which comprises, on their upper and lower surfaces (7, 8), bent lugs (9) extending over the entire width thereof and serving as points of articulation, for the insertion of the adjacent roller door profile, having a terminal portion (10) which at least partially covers the laterally open lugs of the roller door profile, with a retaining portion (11) ex...

A process vessel having either or both of its top and base formed as a gas distributor and whose side wall or side walls are of concrete, the concrete having a gasimpermeable lining.

A high fidelity 3-D immersion theatre experience is produced by alternately projecting corresponding left-eye and right-eye images (70, 72) onto a dome-shaped projection screen (12) from two separate film strips (38, 40) and through separate wide-angle lenses (42, 44). The lenses are positioned close together with their projection axes in a common vertical plane (P) to achieve lateral co-incidence...

2081894 9117428 PCTABS00008 A new ligand binding assay is based upon measurements of relaxation rates of the solvent, which are obtained with a magnetic resonance (MR) spectrometer. It is termed a solvent mediated relaxation assay system (SMRAS). SMRAS is based on the observation that the enhancement of proton relaxation rates produced by a magnetic material can be modulated by the binding of vari...

The present invention relates to an absorbent body (3) for use in a disposable absorbent article, such as a diaper, an incontinence guard, a sanitary napkin, an underwear protector or like article, including fibre wadding (4). According to the invention, the fibre wadding (4) includes a mixture of coarse fibres having a size of at least 17 dtex and fine fibres having a size of at most 2 dtex.
