Inventor: WINSTON ANTHONY E
IPC: A61K8/19

Patent GR-3006281-T3 (GR)
IPC: H02G15/10
Filed: 1992-11-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for protecting elements enclosed substantially immovably in a housing against the influences of moisture, for example parts intended for electrical purposes such as the ends of and coupling means for cables and other electrical and electronic components which are enclosed by a cable socket coupling, said method comprising the following steps:     (1) the provision of the housing;   (2) the arrangement in that housing of the elements;   (3) the optional closure of the housing; (4) the leaving free of an access opening to the space enclosed by the housing; (5) the filling of the housing via the access opening with a liquid filling mass that may be viscous; and   (6) the closure of the access opening.   The invention now proposes to change the method referred to in the preamble with the following step: the selection for performing of the step (5) of a filling mass which hardens on contact with water. Such a filling mass can for example be a silicon-containing mass. Underlying the invention is the insight that it is advantageous under normal, undisturbed conditions to keep a cable socket coupling for example filled with a liquid. A liquid has the advantage that it displays no shrinkage cavities while moreover air bubbles which may be present in the liquid rise and can accumulate in a harmless position. This latter is in contrast to a solid material such as a cured plastic in which cavities such as air bubbles can be found which could have the undesired effect in an electrical field of causing very high field intensities, break-through, burning of material etc., which can lead to situations difficult to control.

Patent GR-3026728-T3 (GR)
Title: PH-controlled protein removing cleaner
Inventor: TSAO FU-PAO DR
IPC: C11D3/02
Filed: 1998-04-28
Abstract: A pH controlled protein removal system and a method of using it in the substantial absence of a protein digesting enzyme and, preferably, in the substantial absence of a surfactant is disclosed. The system is a pH-controlled protein-cleaning composition for e.g. contact lenses comprising (a) water; (b) a tonicity builder sufficient to render said composition ophthalmically acceptable; and (c) a pH regulator sufficient to provide and maintain the pH of the composition at a pH of about 7.5 to about 11.5; in the substantial absence of a protein-digesting enzyme. The inventive method is for removing proteinaceous deposits from a polymeric substrate, e.g. a contact lens, in the substantial absence of a proteinaceous deposit digesting enzyme, comprising contacting said polymeric substrate having a proteinaceous deposit thereon with an aqueous solution at a pH of about 7.5 to about 11.5 to free at least a significant portion of said proteinaceous deposit from said substrate and removing said proteinaceous deposit reduced substrate from said solution.

Title: Sealing cable duct for screened cables
Inventor: GEROLDINGER ARNOLD
IPC: H02G15/02
Filed: 1999-10-14
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/01212 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 11, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 11, 1997 PCT Filed Mar. 20, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/30985 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 3, 1996The RF-proof cable penetration having a seal (9) for shielded cables, having a tubular threaded stub (7) which is to be inserted into a bore, and a locking nut (10) which is to be tightened onto the threaded stub, and having an annular clamping disk (8) which is forced, by a pinch seal (9) which is to be pressed on by the locking nut (10), against an annular shoulder on the threaded stub (7), is equipped according to the invention with a shielding sleeve (4) which has at least one radially projecting shoulder (6) at the front of the inner end. Furthermore, a stamping sleeve (5) is present which is to be pushed over the shielding sleeve (4) on the outside of the cable shield (3). In order to ensure a certain axial displaceability of the cable during mounting, the preassembled cable, provided with shielding sleeve (4) and mounted stamping sleeve (5), can be displaced axially relative to the threaded stub (7) owing to the fact that an annular shoulder has a continuous axial recess (12) in the interior of the threaded stub (7). By contrast with known EMC-capable cable threaded unions, the invention has the advantage that during the process of working the cable "fraying" of the shielding braid (3) is impossible on the cable, and parts of the shielding braid cannot break off, because co-rotation of the cable during tightening is prevented by latching the shielding sleeve (4) in the interior of the threaded stub (7). The time for mounting the cable can be substantially reduced.

Title: C8 aromatics isomerization using catalyst containing modified silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve
Inventor: HAMMERMAN JOHN I
IPC: C07C15/08
Filed: 2000-03-16
Abstract: A non-equilibrium C8 aromatic-feed mixture is selectively isomerized to obtain an isomerized product enriched in para-xylene by contacting the feed in the presence of hydrogen with a catalyst containing a combination of a platinum group component with an SM-3 acidic crystalline silicaaluminophosphate molecular sieve at C8 aromatic isomerization conditions. The SM-3 molecular sieve is enriched in framework silicon at the surface, resulting in a greater yield of para-xylene compared to prior art processes.
