Improved inhibitor systems are disclosed for the reaction of silicon hydride containing silicones with vinyl containing and/or hydroxyl containing silicones. The improved inhibitors are mixtures of conjugated ene-ynes and vinylcyclosiloxanes. Inhibition of cure at room temperature is combined with rapid cure at elevated temperature when the improved inhibitors are used.

A sanitary napkin (10) is disclosed for providing a convenient means for disposal at minimum cost to the consumer. The napkin is capable of being rolled or folded and self-sealed for disposal and includes one or more flaps (12)(14) extending transversely from one end of the backing layer (20). The flap or flaps are wrapped around the edges (50)(51) of the rolled or folded napkin and sealed by adhe...

A torsional vibration absorber is described which comprises a drive plate connected to a drive source, a driven plate connected to a driven member, and an resilient means (SP1,SP2, SP3,25) disposed between the two plates, the two plates being rotatable relative to each other by resiliently compressing the resilient means. Said resilient means comprises a coil spring (SP3) disposed along a relative...

PURPOSE:To uniformly cool with high speed and to improve the productivity by bringing cooling plates into contact with forming metallic dies to swiftly cool the molds and disposing the contact part between the forming metallic dies and the cooling plates in optimum arrangement so that uniform cooling is carried out. CONSTITUTION:For instance, a glass lens 1 is formed by pressing the glass material...

PURPOSE:To obtain the same size of ink drops throughout the whole period, by controlling the degree of amplification of picture elements for driving an ink head such that the first one is the largest than the ones followed during one existing information period of the picture elements. CONSTITUTION:The outputs (c, d) of a first AND circuit, which samples a two- value picture element (a) by a sampl...

Quartz crucibles (710) as illustrated in Fig. 8 for the melting of silicon and ceramic substrates are coated with protective materials (710') or metals at least in part evaporated from an electrode (701,702) with which an arc is struck at low voltage and current to deposit material from the electrode (701 or 702) on the substrate in a vacuum chamber. The electrode (701,702) may be heated and the s...

Dense superconducting ceramic oxide articles of manufacture and methods for producing these articles are described. Generally these articles are produced by first processing these superconducting oxides by ceramic processing techniques to optimize materials properties, followed by reestablishing the superconducting state in a desired portion of the ceramic oxide composite.

Metal pipes coated with tin or tin based alloy are manufactured by inserting tin or tin based coating material eg as a wire, thin sheets or powder into the metal pipe, raising the temperature rapidly to over 1000 DEG C; eg by using a high frequency furnace which maybe set at a frequency in excess of 10 KHz in a non-active, or non-oxide atmospheric gas, or in a reducing gas, to melt the inserted ma...

A phase-locked loop PLL including a phase comparator (13, Fig 2), an analogue switch (16) and a voltage controlled oscillator (14) has an open loop operation when the phase difference between the input and output is less than a predetermined value.
