Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making polyamide. More particularly, the invention concerns a method for making polyamides derived from the reaction between a diacid and a diamine. It concerns a method for making a polyamide derived from the reaction of at least a diacid with at least a polyamide comprising the following steps: preparing a first mixture of diacid and diamine with a diacid/diamine molar ratio ranging between 0.8 and 0.995, preferably ranging between 0.95 and 0.99 in a first reactor (5); preparing a second mixture of diacid and diamine with a diacid/diamine molar ratio ranging between 1.005 and 1.2, preferably between 1.01 and 1.05, in a second reactor (4); introducing in melted form a first flow of the first mixture and a second flow of the second mixture in a stirred polymer reactor (7); drawing, preferably, continuously, from said reactor a flow of polyamide prepolymer; feeding said polyamide flow into a finishing step to obtain the desired degree of polymerisation. The invention is characterised in that the stoichiometry of the polyamide in the reactor (7) or the acid function/amine function ratios in the different reactors are measured by near infrared spectrometric analysis, and by controlling the feed flows in the different reactors using the results of said analyses.

Title: Site selective genomic modification of yeast of the genus pichia
Inventor: CREGG JAMES MICHAEL
IPC: C12N1/16
Filed: 1986-10-14
Granted: 1989-02-09
Abstract: Method for the site specific genomic modification of yeasts of the genus Pichia and novel DNA sequences useful therefor are provided. Pichia is transformed with a serially arranged linear DNA fragment comprising first and second insertable DNA fragments, which flank a marker gene. The insertable DNA sequences are homologous to defined portions of the Pichia genome and integrate by recombination at such defined sites. The resulting transformed organism contains the marker gene and any additional DNA sequences which are positioned between the insertable DNA fragments. In addition, the resulting transformed organism has either a disrupted or deleted sequence at the site of the genomic modification. Enhanced production of heterologous gene products is observed when using as the host for expression strains in which the alcohol oxidase gene has been disrupted. Upon disruption of the primary alcohol oxidase gene of Pichia, the existence of a second alcohol oxidase gene in Pichia was also discovered.

Title: Multi-way control valve with two end diaphragms - has one diaphragm acted on its outer surface by the operating pressure medium
IPC: F16K11/07
Filed: 1970-12-15
Abstract: The second diaphragm serves both as a holder membrane for the friction-free guiding of the closure element and also for defining the required control position and acting as the sealing membrane for controlling the path between the outlet connection and pressure release connection. The two membranes enclose a chamber which on one side is shielded by the operating membrane against the operating pressure and on the other side by the holding and sealing membrane against the working pressure. Two mutually coaxial annular discs are located between each operating membrane and the sealing membrane associated with it. The inner disc sits on the slide and has an L-shaped form with one limb resting on the operating membrane and its other limb on the sealing membrane. The valve design ensures that the control pressure and working pressure do not interact.

Title: Improved thermal barrier
Inventor: FELDMAN ALEC
IPC: B63C11/02
Filed: 1995-04-03
Abstract: A thermal barrier which uses selected fluids trapped within the interstices of materials, between layers of materials, trapped within sealed cells such as in "bubble" packaging or incorporated within foamed materials such as polystyrene to achieve the desired thermal conductivity characeteristics, lowly conductive fluids being used in low conductive barriers and highly conductive fluids in highly conductive barriers. The conductive characteristics of the thermal barrier can be altered as desired by arranging that the fluids of different conductive characteristics can be changed in real-time. The thermal barrier can optionally incorporate surface coatings with specified reflective characteristics, such coatings being protected against chemical attack by air or water by the fluids as selected as above. Such coatings can be used to generate thermal barriers with selective absorptive characteristics. Where gas filled thermal barriers are incorporated in diving suits, a device can be used with automatically compensates for changes in buoyancy with depth.
