Abstract: A process for producing polyarylene sulfide includes: steps of reacting an aromatic dihalide compound and an alkaline metal compound in a polar organic solvent for polymerization under heating and cooling a system including the reaction mixture to recover particulate polyarylene sulfide (PAS). The system after the reaction is gradually cooled at an average cooling speed of 0.2 to 1.0 deg. C./min. selectively in a temperature range of from 1 deg. C. below to 1 deg. C. above a maximum system-viscosity temperature. As a result, the process can be operated at a relatively short polymerization cycle and yet provides the product PAS particles with a high and stable bulk density as to exhibit good processability in the transportation and storage, and excellent transportability in a hopper or a screw of an extruder or a molding machine.

Abstract: An overload safeguard on a joining connection and a method for producing the overload safeguard are provided. The joining connection comprises an outer joining part having a through-opening and a cylindrical, inner joining part which is acted upon by torque, protrudes through the through-opening in the outer joining part and is frictionally connected to the latter. A countertorque of equal magnitude to the torque of the inner joining part acts on the outer joining part in such a manner that when a torque value corresponding to the maximum permissible frictional force is exceeded, the frictional connection is released and the inner joining part slips in the connection. The inner joining part forms a press fit with the outer joining part and, with its outer circumference, bears against the inner circumference of the through-opening in the outer joining part with a pre-stressing force corresponding to the torque value.

Abstract: Techniques to forward unsolicited messages from an (IS-2000) CDMA radio network via an HDR radio network to an access terminal. A session is first established between the access terminal and the HDR radio network. During session establishment or thereafter, the access terminal indicates to the HDR radio network an interest in receiving unsolicited messages from the CDMA radio network. The access terminal typically also registers with the CDMA radio network. Thereafter, unsolicited messages can be sent from a mobile station controller (MSC) to the HDR and CDMA radio networks, or sent from the MSC to the CDMA radio network, which then forwards the messages to the HDR radio network. The HDR radio network encapsulates the unsolicited messages and sends the encapsulated messages to the access terminal. The forwarding of unsolicited messages allows the CDMA radio network to communicate with an access terminal.
