TITLE PREPARATION OF POLY(PHENYLENE OXIDE) ASYMMETRIC GAS SEPARATION MEMBRANES A process for producing integrally-skinned asymmetric poly(phenylene oxide) gas separation membranes is disclosed. The process involves forming a solution of the poly(phenylene oxide) in an aprotic solvent at an elevated temperature, forming a nascent membrane from the solution, partially drying the nascent membrane, fo...

The method uses heating to prepare batches of a mouldable fibre- reinforced thermoplastic material specifically for a moulded article to be produced. The method involves heating an intermediate of fibres and binder containing thermoplastic as a strand and cutting off a specific batch from the strand for passing on to further processing. The apparatus has a melting device with a melting channel, th...

The present invention involves a method and device for separating fluids from one another in a liquid mixture, and especially for separating undesirable components from the liquid mixture to obtain one or more desirable components for subsequent use. A sample of the liquid mixture is first applied to a physical transport medium which moves at least a portion of the liquid mixture from a remote loc...

The wire guide arm at the twisting rotor of a double beat twisting machine, such as for mfg. steel cords, is dimensioned so that the ratio of its curve radius to height in each arm is 6:1 to 8:1. The ratio of the arm height to width is 1:3.5 to 1:4.5. ADVANTAGE - The two arms can be placed close together to minimise the free flight curve of the twisted material and give a low air resistance value....

A method and arrangement for aligning a space vehicle with respect to a reference object is disclosed. A measuring direction is obtained by determining the angular orientation direction of the space vehicle with respect to the reference object and subsequently the space vehicle is aligned by means of actuators such that the measuring direction corresponds to a reference direction on the space vehi...

Ski boot consisting of a shell and of an upper, in the form of a collar (cuff) 2. The collar is equipped with an inner reinforcement 16, which is preferably adjustable, on the side corresponding to the inside of the leg in order to improve the quality of the transmission of the lateral effort of the leg to the ski.

A mixer has a container (1) which is rotatable about an axis (4). There are formed within the container (1), successively in the direction of rotation (5), chambers which have different filling volumes and which are formed such that they are open in the direction of the axis of rotation. In one form the chambers are delimited by walls (6) within the container (1) which run crosswise to the axis of...

A strainer assembly for use in a filter having a granular media bed supported above a floor. The strainer assembly includes a low profile body member having a two tiered construction, the bottom tier having a larger diameter than the upper tier. Each of the tiers has a series of substantially equally spaced apart, generally vertical, slot openings formed therein. The total area of the openings in ...

The brake system for yarns, in a creel, has a third fixed roller (20) for the two adjustable rollers (14,15), with at least one elastic cladding (16) to form two contact points. The second roller (15) in the pair (14,15) is pressed against the third roller (20), and it can be locked clear of the roller (20).
