A storage-stable container sealing composition which is fluid and comprises an aqueous dispersion of a visco elastic, generally elastomeric, polymer and hollow microspheres of a thermoplastic polymeric material containing a liquid blowing agent. The compositions are applied as gaskets to container closures and are heated to volatilize the blowing agent and expand the microspheres.

PURPOSE:To adjust the parallelism of a clamping plate easily with high precision by extending or narrowing a slit between the nose sections of first and second fixed plates by a screw and adjusting the parallelism of the clamping plate. CONSTITUTION:When the opposed angles of clamping plates 6, 7 take a value shown in (a) after assembling a wire clamper, a male screw 15 is screwed to a female scre...

This construction material based on a hydraulic binder, such as cement or plaster, contains as an additive an expanded thermoplastic material, in particular expanded polystyrene. The material may also possibly contain sawdust. These constituents create in the material bubbles or layers of air which improve the thermal insulation of the finished material. If the binder is cement, the material conta...

The hydrotreatment of hydrocarbons in the liquid phase is effected in a column containing a catalyst bed supported by a grid, wherethrough passes an ascending stream of the charge admixed with hydrogen which expands the catalyst bed, the perforations of the grid being small enough to prevent passage of the catalyst particles but large enough to permit passage of the hydrogen-charge mixture, the re...

The invention relates to a device for transmitting, at the surface, the signals from a transmitter located at a great depth. According to the invention, the antenna of the transmitter E housed in a cylindrical metal cavity, for example in the cavity of the drill stem 12 of a drill string, consists of a metal cylindrical sleeve 13 of greater diameter and shorter length than the drill stem 12, which...
