The invention provided a new type of high capacity storage battery, wherein the colloidal electrolyte is hard to hydration, and has no cracking, and some improvements on the said high capacity colloidal sotrage battery are also disclosed.

Wind driven electrical generators for generating direct current to charge vehicle batteries are known to produce a comparatively high charging amperage and are consequently large in physical size, heavy and do not readily mount temporarily on automobiles, snowmobiles, RVs and other vehicles. This invention overcomes the said problem by providing an attachable wind trickle charger comprising a mini...

The multi-component system is suitable for processing by the Hatschek process and other processes known in the building material industry. It consists of natural polymers and PAN fibres composed of PAN structured shaped objects and fibres. The natural polymer/PAN fibres ratio is between 60:40 and 40:60, the water retention capacity is between 120 and 160%, the solid content is at least 26% and the...

A hollow article formed from a film containing a polyester with reactive groups, whose ends have been bonded by an adhesive, results in a bonded region which remains transparent. The hollow article is useful as an all around label, safety seal, or sheath for containers.

Grinding apparatus has a grinding disc grinding a tool, both of which are washed with coolant from a hose. The coolant collects in a funnel and enters a separation channel comprising a labyrinthine path over a magnetised floor plate. Tungsten carbide is faintly responsive to a magnetic field and can be drawn out of suspension thereby.

The present invention provides a novel, porous, composite membrane comprising a metallic support having large pores and a microporous ceramic membrane deposited on the support and integral therewith. Preferably, the support is steel having pores in the range of from about about .25 .mu.m to about 50 .mu.m and the ceramic membrane is alumina having pores ranging from about 5 .ANG. to about 2500 .AN...

The present invention is a multilayered catalyst structure coated onto the surface of a membrane which does not have physical micropores. The non-microporous membrane serves as a mechanical support for the thin multilayered catalyst structure and also can be used to control the rate at which some reactants arrive at (or some produce leave from) the multilayered catalyst structure. A multilayered c...
