Patent JP-4237412-B2 (JP)
IPC: C08G69/16
Filed: 1999-10-22
Granted: 2009-03-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the hydrolytic polymerisation of epsi-caprolactam to polyamide-6, comprising a step (a) in which ring opening of part of the epsi-caprolactam to the corresponding amino caproic acid is effected in the presence of water and a step (b) in which polyaddition and polycondensation are effected under preferably anhydrous reaction conditions, in which at least one of the steps (a) and (b) is carried out in a reactor in which a self-renewing interface between the molten phase and the gas phase with a large surface/volume ratio of the molten phase is effected. The method is preferably effected in an horizontal scraped-surface reactor, since relatively strong mixing of the molten phase can be achieved in these and the molten phase is present in a thin layer, a large gas volume is present having a relatively high partial pressure of the water vapour and the thin layer is constantly renewed by shear forces. The method can be carried out in one reactor, preferably with several reaction zones, or with several reactors in series.

Abstract: A catalyst composition suitable for reacting hydrocarbons, e.g., conversion processes such as fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) of hydrocarbons, comprises attrition resistant particulate having a high level (30-85%) of stabilized zeolites having a constraint index of 1 to 12. The stabilized zeolite is bound by a phosphorous compound, alumina and optional binders wherein the alumina added to make the catalyst is about 10% by weight or less and the molar ratio of phosphorous (P<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>5</SUB>) to total alumina is sufficient to obtain an attrition index of about 20 or less. The composition can be used as a catalyst per se or as additive catalyst to a conventional catalyst and is especially suitable for enhancing yields of light olefins, and particularly ethylene, produced during conversion processes.

Abstract: When a transmission selector lever is operated from P or N range to D range, an input clutch to be engaged at the fifth gear position is temporally engaged to reduce shift shock when the engaging element for the first gear position is engaged. An oil pressure command value for actuating the input clutch is increased with a constant inclination from a start point oil pressure value, and the start point oil pressure value is lowered when the engine speed is low or when an oil temperature is high. Even if a timing of completion of filling of working fluid to the input clutch is fluctuated, the difference between the actual oil pressure and the oil pressure command value is suppressed to a small level and the occurrence of shock due to surge at the time of the filling completion is prevented.

Abstract: A sheath for use on a closed loop Joule-Thomson cryosurgical probe, and the combination of the sheath and the closed loop probe. The sheath is slipped over the probe, thereby separating the probe from the environment. The sheath has a grip which fits over the handle of the cryosurgical probe, and an extendible shroud which can be longitudinally extended to cover tubing and which are attached to the handle. The sheath has a hollow multi-lumen catheter shaped and sized to fit snugly over the cannula of the cryosurgical probe. The catheter is not thermally conductive, preventing transfer of heat from the ambient to the gas mixture, and preventing the freezing of tissues at undesired locations along the catheter. A thermally conductive cap or tip is attached to the distal end of the hollow catheter. The thermally conductive cap or tip is biased against the cold tip on the probe by a biasing element in the sheath assembly, to promote heat transfer.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus stores a series of input positions which are continuously detected by an input device in a memory thereof in order of the detection. An input position (B1) initially stored in the memory is stored as a reference point position in the memory. When each of the series of input positions is stored in the memory, an operation vector (vector v′1) connecting between an input position having been most recently stored in the memory and the reference point position in the memory is calculated. The information processing apparatus performs a predetermined processing using a magnitude and a direction of the operation vector. The reference point position stored in the memory is updated to a position obtained when the reference point position is moved toward a predetermined target position (point A) when each of the series of input positions is stored in the memory.
