Steviosides can be obtained from dried material from Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni plants by extraction and purification, where an extract is obtained by treatment in water at a temperature from room temperature to about 65 DEG C and with stirring and subsequent filtration or centrifugation and is treated with calcium hydroxide, after which a precipitate is obtained by filtration or centrifugation and...

A process wherein a pasty to free-flowing coating mixture is made up, the coating mixture is applied to the surface to be coated by screen printing, and the coating is baked by warming the glass/coating combination. Platelet-like inorganic pigments having a particle size of less than 40  mu m, preferably less than 20  mu m, from the group comprising "phyllosilicates, oxides, metal modifications an...

The invention seeks to provide a band containing non-woven fabric, for drive and conveyor belts, which band does not build up electric charges. The fibre mixture of the non-woven fabric contains about 1 to 10 % by weight of electrically conductive fibres.

This reservoir, of the type comprising an inner case (3) for leaktightness and an outer case (4) for physical strength, and between the two cases a first dome (5) at the closed end and a second dome (10) at the open end of the reservoir, this second dome (10) being made in one piece with a connecting throat (7), is characterised in that part of the inner case (3) at the open end of the reservoir (...

In order to avoid the deterioration inside a shoe because of sweat, an improved deodorant and/or perfumed footwear is characterized by the fact that it is formed by a posterior body (6), incorporated inside the heel (2), consisting of a lower chamber (3) holding the perfuming liquid, with holes (4) at the back running along the top of the chamber, conveying the liquid to a further, upper chamber (...

Connected downstream of a feeder (10) is a conveyor (14) in which individually controllable grippers (34) for gripping folded printed products (12), which are fed in an overlapping stream, by their front edge (84) are arranged at intervals on a rotationally driven buffer chain (20). The plates (22) of the buffer chain (20) are connected to one another by means of hinge pins (54). The hinge pins (5...

In an automatic plant for the production of products, such as food products, in which modular supports carrying a determined number of products are used, a high-capacity physical and/or chemical treatment apparatus provides a temporary storage facility sufficient to ensure continuity of operation and production of the plants positioned downstream and upstream thereof, even of one or the other is m...
