Title: Organopolysiloxane gels for use in cosmetics
Inventor: FRY BRYAN E
IPC: A61K8/00
Filed: 2001-03-09
Granted: 2006-10-03
Abstract: Organopolysiloxane gels containing gel-bound hydrophillic groups are prepared by reacting a hydrosilylatable unsaturated organopolysiloxane resin, a crosslinker bearing Si-H bound hydrogen, and a hydrosilylatable unsaturated hydrophile, in the presence of an effective amount of a hydrosilylation catalyst, at least a portion of the reaction taking place in the presence of at least 60 weight percent of an oleaginous composition containing at least 50 weight percent low viscosity organopolysiloxane. When sheared, the crosslinked organosiloxane compositions form a stable, preferably incompatible gel which may be used in turn to form a stable emulsion with large amounts of ordinarily incompatible hydrophillic liquids. The emulsions thus formed are suitable for use in a wide variety of cosmetic products.

Abstract: The switching system with MEMS modification of a signal wavefront implements a new type of all-optical signal switching element that uses the coherence properties of electromagnetic radiation, coupled with the materials properties of semiconductors through the application of existing Micro-machined Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) technology to provide signal switching apparatus that is faster in operation, smaller in size, more robust, and less expensive than existing signal switching elements found in all-optical communication switching systems. This is accomplished by the use of a semiconductor chip that has a MEMS mirror system implemented on its face.  The MEMS device is constructed to operate in a pure materials flex mode, with no moving mechanical parts to wear. The MEMS mirror system is used to create local distortions in the reflected and/or transmitted electromagnetic radiation wavefront to redirect the electromagnetic radiation in such a way as to create channels of changed resistance in a bulk semiconductor. These changes in resistance to the channels serve to enhance or impede the motility of electrons through the bulk semiconductor, thereby providing a switching function within the bulk semiconductor. Alternatively, the redirection of the electromagnetic radiation wavefront can be effected via changes in the index of refraction in the bulk semiconductor material.

Title: Concrete form release compositions
Inventor: NELTNER STEPHEN LOUIS
IPC: B28B7/38
Filed: 2002-02-07
Granted: 2006-10-31
Abstract: The forming of shapes using cement and/or concrete is an old art. In this process a form is removed, leaving the shape of the pattern which is the result of the form designed. Fluid concrete and/or cement can then be poured into the cavity to form the object.  To increase the life of the forms, and to make removal of the form easier, the form must be coated with a protective material. Despite many available form release compounds, mineral seal oil, and a mixture of mineral seal and oleic acid, have been the commercial choices. A biodegradable form release composition including vegetable oil with a petroleum oil and/or an alcohol and a method of utilizing such a release composition to reduce adhesion between concrete and formwork or a mold is disclosed. The form release composition is biodegradable with a low VOC content.

Title: Pelletized animal bedding and process and tool for sifting manure therefrom
Inventor: PADGETT DANNY L
IPC: A01K1/015
Filed: 2002-05-03
Granted: 2010-09-21
Abstract: Animal manure is removed from a bedding material consisting of compacted and compressed pelletized sawdust particles or granules of relatively uniform size by a pellet fork specifically designed to enable the pellets or particles to sift through the tines of the fork while retaining all but the tiniest particles of manure atop the tines for disposal. The pellet fork is uniquely and specifically designed to provide an improved sifting function not previously possible with other bedding materials except when using a mechanized sifter, resulting in substantial material and labor cost savings, longer life and easier maintenance of bedding, reduction of cleaning time per stall, improved cleanliness of stalls and attendant improved health of the animals. The volume of waste and bedding removed from a horse stall during cleaning may reduce a manure pile as much as 70% compared to conventional use of straw.
