Abstract: A method is described for making a silicone emulsion. According to the method, there is formed a mixture of water, a cyclic siloxane, optionally a nonionic surfactant and a cationic surfactant. There is then added to the mixture a polymerization initiator which can be a silanolate or an organosilanolate. The mixture is heated and agitated and the cyclic siloxane is allowed to polymerize until an emulsion is formed. The benefit of this emulsion polymerization method is that the rate of emulsion polymer formation is enhanced. Thus, the method provides for the production of emulsions in a new and more efficient manner. The silicone emulsion will produce an elastomeric product when water is removed under ambient conditions.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for concentrating the energy of laser diode beams (24) by imaging them to obtain a superimposed image and a combined numerical aperture at a focal plane (26) and by guiding them between reflective boundaries (70, 72) to maintain a lesser second numerical aperture at the focal plane. The combined numerical aperture preferably matches the second numerical aperture so that the energy can be received into the entrance end (102) of optical fibers (100) whose numerical apertures also match the second numerical aperture. A described embodiment utilizes collimating lenses (36) and an off-axis parabolic reflector (38). The exit ends (108) of the optical fibers can be grouped and fractionally magnified into a concentrated energy pattern. The final image can be imposed into a single optical fiber (30) for passage along remote or convoluted optical paths.

Abstract: The sight glass assembly (1), securable to a pressure vessel (V), includes a body (3) having top, bottom, front, back, and side walls defining a chamber (25) which is in fluid communication with the interior of the vessel (V). A glass (7) is secured in the sight glass body (3) by a cover (11) to permit viewing of the vessel contents and sensors in the sight glass chamber (25). A baffle (29) in the sight glass body (3) divides the chamber (25) into a front chamber (33) and a back chamber (31). The baffle (29) causes steam foam or bubbles from the vessel (V) to condense in the back chamber (31) so that only liquid enters the front chamber (33). The sensors are placed in the front chamber (33) where they cannot be contacted by the foam or bubbles. By preventing foam or bubbles from entering the front chamber (33), and thus from contacting the sensing devices and the glass (7), the possibility of false readings by the devices and etching of the glass (7) during operational use of the assembly is reduced.

Abstract: The method involves use of two different coding modes. Each mode corresponds to a predetermined coding source and coding channel for transmission of a signal in each transmission direction. Each coding source corresponds to a data flow and each coding channel corresponds to a coded data output of total data flow for coded source data. Analysis is made of the transmission quality between the mobile unit and the base station in each direction. For each direction, one of the coding modes is selected as a function of the analysis of the transmission quality.

Abstract: A DNA sequence is described for the gene therapy of diseases associated with the immune system. In its essential elements, the DNA sequence is composed of an activator sequence, a promoter module and a gene for the active substance. The activator sequence is activated in a cell-specific or virus-specific manner and this activation is regulated by the promoter module in a cell cycle-specific manner. The choice of activator sequence and active substance depends on the indication area. The DNA sequence is inserted into a viral or non-viral vector which is supplemented by a ligand having affinity for the target cell. Depending on the choice of activator sequence and active substance, the following can be treated by administering the DNA sequence: defective formation of blood cells autoimmune diseases and allergies and, in addition, rejection reactions against transplanted organs chronic arthritis viral and parasitic infections and, in addition, prophylaxis of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections, and leukaemias.

Abstract: Method for wet cleaning gases to remove low soluble pollutants such as mercury metal and nitrogen monoxide. An oxidizing agent is released from a compound such as a sodium chlorite, injected into a recycle stream being conveyed for dispensing into a scrubber, by a releasing agent, such as finely divided solids in the recycle stream, so that the oxidizing agent becomes available at the time of dispersion into the scrubber to oxidize the pollutants on the surface of droplets dispersed throughout the gases in the scrubber. The resulting oxidized pollutants have increased solubility and are transferred to a scrubbing liquid.

Abstract: A method for controlling a direct injection internal combustion engine (1) by measuring both the degree of actuation (PP) of an accelerator pedal (4) and the engine speed (N) to provide optimal engine tuning parameters (Ti; ζi; All; αP). According to the method, a table showing the pressure/air temperature (RPTO) ratio in the intake manifold is established, during engine tune-up, for each degree of actuation (PP)/speed (N) pair; the pressure (Pcol) and temperature (Tcol) of the intake air are measured during normal operation, and the measured pressure/temperature ratio (RPTm) is formed; the opening angle (αP) of a throttle (9) in the intake manifold is adjusted to make said ratio (RPTm) dependent on a set value read out of the table; and reverse reading of the table is performed to determine a virtual degree of accelerator pedal actuation (PPV) on the basis of the measured speed (N) and ratio (RPTm), thereby providing at least one of the optimal engine tuning parameters.

Abstract: The successful bonding of bioactive material, especially enzymes, to the signal-active surface of a biosensor can be achieved by means of a heterobifunctional crosslinking agent having a group A reactive for the signal-active surface, e.g. a group reacting with -OH, -SH or -NHx, and a photoactivatable, biomaterial-reactive group B. Known groups B are, in particular, azidophenyl and azidosalicylic groups. Crosslinking agents containing such groups B on the one hand and succinimide ester groups on the other are commercially available and hence particularly attractive. The signal-active surface can be especially a Si3N4 surface with reactive NHx groups, as can be obtained from the gas phase by SiH4/NH3 reaction, especially on a fresh SiO2 surface, and has been freed from oxides especially by treatment with dilute hydrofluoric acid.

Abstract: Total thermal management accomplishes self-cooling from acoustic air movement in a light-weight loudspeaker system for professional sound applications: a cast aluminum front panel, forming the front baffle portion of a total enclosure, is configured to include on the front panel a horn opening, a woofer opening with a ring mount for a conventional woofer cone, a pair of bass reflex ports, and, extending rearwardly, a woofer frame with a mount for a conventional woofer driver, a horn structure with a threaded mount for a conventional horn driver, and an amplifier mounting shelf, all thermally combined by a pattern of generally vertical integral cooling vanes. The lower portions of the vanes are shaped to form structural legs of the woofer frame, and their upper portions are integrally attached to the horn. A shelf for mounting an amplifier in the speaker enclosure is formed by a transverse cooling vane. All of the heat-producing devices are thermally connected via good heat-conduction paths provided by the vanes attached integrally to densely-vaned cooling grilles forming the tuned reflex ports; thus, as the woofer is energized, air moves in and out of the grilles at high velocity particularly at low frequency resonance, acting like a fan on the grilles and thus enhancing their thermal dissipation with a cooling effect that increases as the woofer plays louder due to the increased velocity of the reciprocal air movement.
