Drying felts provided with a seam in order to facilitate mounting in a paper machine and press felts with such a seam in order to prevent the paper web from being marked by the seam have a wadding flap covering the seam as a continuation of the wadding layer which is fastened to the felt. The wadding flap is worn in different ways when the felt is used in a paper machine and its firmness limits th...

A degaussing circuit for a cathode ray tube of a video display apparatus includes a resonating capacitor (C1) that is charged prior to degaussing. A degaussing coil (LGD) is disposed about the cathode ray tube. An SCR (SCR1), responsive to an on/off control signal, is turned on by a control switch (Q1) for coupling the resonating capacitor (C1) to the degaussing coil (LDG) in order to generate an ...

A coextruded multilayer film includes a layer of a vinylidene chloride copolymer, and a layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer. The coextruded film has high oxygen barrier properties under both high and low humidity conditions.

Methods for distinguishing multiple subpopulations of particles in a single sample based upon quantitative differences in the fluoroescence intensity attributable to one or two fluorochromes with which the particles are labelled. The method is used with flow cytometric particle counting techniques to count and sort synthetic particles and biological particles such as the formed elements of blood a...
