The present invention is directed to a continuous process for the production of aqueous polyurethane dispersions by continuously mixing solutions of polyurethanes or isocyanate prepolymers dissolved in an organic solvent with water and subsequently continuously removing at least a portion of the solvent using a circulation-type evaporator. The present invention is also directed to the production o...

An improved process is provided for the preparation of siloxane-oxyalkylene block copolymer surfactant compositions which utilized a hydrosilation reaction with high boiling point polar polyols as the reaction solvent. The reaction solvent need not be removed from the block copolymer, particularly when the block copolymer is used as a surfactant for polyurethane foam formulations. Dipropylene glyc...

A method and apparatus for generating in real time full width formation profiles of a web (12) of material which passes between a light source (10) and a camera which generates signals corresponding to the light intensity across the entire width of the web as compared to single point or sample measurements. These signals are then processed to generate in real time a full width formation profile of...

PURPOSE:To contrive automatic discrimination between pieces of shells and shucked shellfishes, by measuring intensity and wave form of an absorption part and absorption width of an absorption signal in an X-ray image and discriminating the X-ray absorption parts due to the pieces of the shell and shucked shellfishes based on the measured values. CONSTITUTION:X-rays are irradiated to shucked shellf...

A security device for monitoring unmanned vehicles within an area, the device comprising at least two oppositely directed light barriers associated with the area. Each light barrier includes a light emitter, a reflector, and a light receiver. The light barriers are disposed such that their light-beams are interrupted by the vehicles entering the area. Reflectors are arranged laterally on authorize...

A gradiomanometer 1 measures the difference in pressure between points 3 and 4 to indicate density and hence proportions of two phases (e.g. liquid and gas), each of known density flowing as indicated by arrow 6. A venturi meter 2 measures the difference in pressure between points 4 and 5 to indicate flow rate, initially assumed to be that of the heavier phase only. An iterative calculation makes ...

A process for the treatment of flyslag for example from the gasification of coal. The process comprises the steps of mixing of the flyslag with a cementitious material, a composition capable of converting sulfides in the flyslag at least to sulphur, and an aqueous waste stream from the gasification of coal, in specified proportions. A composition comprising flyslag, a cementitious material, and a ...

A fully cured or substantially fully cured polyimide is etched by contacting the imide with an aqueous solution of a metal hydroxide such as an alkali metal or alkali earth hydroxide and a compound selected from metal carbonates, sulfates and phosphates. The presence of the carbonate, sulfate or phosphate reduces the undercutting of a resist pattern on the polyimide.

A moulding process comprising contacting an aqueous slurry of reinforcing fibres and an alternating copolymer CO and an olefinically unsaturated compound with the outer surface of a rotating wheel which operates under vacuum and which is provided with inwardly or outwardly projecting moulds, and removing water from material deposited on or in the moulds.
