Patent EP-1099688-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KAO JUNAN
IPC: C07C233/18
Filed: 1996-05-24
Abstract: N-alkyl polyhydroxy alkyl amines such as N-methyl glucamine having a
Gardner Color of less than 1 are reacted with sources of fatty acyl groups such as
methyl esters, anhydrides, and/or fatty acids that have greater than 98% transmittance
at 460nm in organic hydroxy solvents such as methanol to prepare N-alkyl
polyhydroxy amine amides with good color.
The resulting amide product is further purified by treatment with anionic and
cationic exchange resins to remove soap and amine impurities. The anionic ion
exchange resin can be readily regenerated by acidifying it followed by washing with an
organic solvent.

Abstract: Mono-acyl-(lyso)-glycerophospholipids (also known as
lysophosphatidyl derivatives; e.g., lysophosphatidyl
choline, a lysolecithin; lysophosphatidyl serine, a
lysocephalin), are used either alone or in combination with
certain other permeation-enhancing compounds, to enhance the
penetration of active ingredients into the vertebrate
epidermis and thus enhance and/or potentiate the efficacy of
topically-applied active components. Other permeation-enhancing
compounds which may be included in formulations
with mono-acyl-(lyso)-glycerophospholipids include, but are
not limited to, salicylates, esters of choline, acyl
carnitines, diethoxyglycol, and detergents such as sodium
dodecyl sulfate, lecithins and other phosphatidyl
compounds, and other surface-active lipid derivatives, such
as ceramides and cerebrosides.

Abstract: Activated carbon obtained by activating a carbonaceous
material is processed with an acid at an elevated temperature.
The acid-processed activated carbon has a strong affinity for
water, and is favorable to water purification. Electrodes
produced by shaping the acid-processed activated carbon have
the advantage of large electrostatic capacity per unit
volume, and are favorable for capacitors.

Abstract: A portable data input or computer system includes an input/output device such as a
keyboard and a display, another data input device such as an optical bar code scanner, and a data
processor module. To scan bar code type indicia, the operator points the scanner at the bar code
and triggers the scanner to read the indicia. All the system components are distributed on an
operator's body and together form a personal area system (PAS). Components may include a
scanner or imager, a wrist unit a headpiece including an eyepiece display, speaker and a
microphone. Components within a particular PAS communicate with each other over a personal
area network (PAN). Individual PASs may be combined into a network of PASs called a PAS
cluster. PASs in a particular PAS cluster can communicate with each other over another wireless
communication channel. Individual PAS can gain access to a Local Area Network(LAN) and/or a
Wide Area Network (WAN) via an access point. Individual PASs can use devices, such as
servers and PCs situated either on the LAN or the WAN to retrieve and exchange information.
Individual PAS components can provide automatic speech and image recognition. PAS
components may also act a telephone, a pager, or any other communication device having access
to a LAN or a WAN. Transmission of digitized voice and/or video data can be achieved over an
Internet link.

Abstract: A practicable universal replacement C band/Ku band communications satellite
designed for orbiting the Earth in a storage orbit and a method for its use as a replacement for a
failed satellite are disclosed. The universal replacement satellite can be controlled by an external
control system (e.g., a ground station) and is reconfigurable by remote command (e.g., from a
ground station). The satellite is designed to make several fast moves during its design life from
its storage slot to the geostationary slot to which it needs to move when it is to act as a
replacement for a failed satellite. The ability to make fast moves helps minimize down time.
After its then-current mission of sparing a particular failed satellite has been completed, the
communications payload can be turned off and the satellite can be moved back to its storage slot
to await its next replacement mission. Various design features allow it to be able to satisfactorily
mimic (that is, emulate) the communications capabilities of a very high percentage of the
existing geostationary C band and Ku band satellites while still being economically and
otherwise practicable. The satellite can also contain means for handling BSS signals so that the
satellite can act as a replacement for both FSS and BSS failed satellites.

IPC: B29B9/06
Filed: 1993-05-10
Abstract: Carbomer or cross-polyacrylate polymers which are conventionally provided in a powdered form are converted to a granulated, pelletized or tablet form for subsequent use. The subsequent use can be in combination with a liquid medium, to form a gel from which products such as liquid detergents, cosmetics and toiletries can be produced or they can be used in the converted dry form without the addition of liquid. Conversion of the polymer into a granular, pelletized or tablet form has been demonstrated to improve handling of the dry polymer, thereby mitigating against many of the problems incurred with the use of conventional powders, as well as to improve the rate of blending of the polymer with a liquid medium. In some embodiments, the polymer is blended with an electrolyte which may be a salt, acid or acid salt having a pK which is at least 1 unit, and preferably 2 units, greater than the pK of the polymer.
