Abstract: A process is indicated for the purification of waste acetic acid which is contaminated with nitrogen compounds and with halogen compounds which are difficult to hydrolyse, which process comprises treating the waste acetic acid in a first step with a complexing metal or one of its compounds and with a basic compound and holding this mixture at a temperature of between 25 and 118 DEG C over a period of 1 to 6 hours, distilling off a first running in a second step and distilling off purified acetic acid as head product from a residue of low volatility in a third step. 
<??>Complexing metals which have particularly proven themselves are iron, cobalt, nickel or copper or their compounds in the form of the acetates, oxides or hydroxides. 
<??>The hydroxides, hydrogencarbonates, carbonates or acetates of sodium, potassium, magnesium or calcium are employed as basic compound.

Abstract: This invention relates to compositions comprising a tramadol material and any of codeine, oxycodone or hydrocodone, and their use. The compositions are pharmacologically useful in treating pain, diarrhea and tussive conditions. The compositions are also subject to less side-effects as compared to pure opiate based compositions, such as abuse liability, tolerance, constipation and respiratory depression. Furthermore, where the components, i.e., a tramadol material and any of codeine, oxycodone or hydrocodone, of the compositions are within certain ratios the pharmacological effects of the compositions are superadditive (synergistic). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A retroreflective sheet manufacturing method having the steps of placing a light-permeable protective film on glass beads in a support sheet which consists of a binder layer and a reinforcing layer, and which is provided with retroreflective glass beads buried in the binder layer, and thermally deforming parts of the support sheet under heating and pressure so as to partially bond the binder layer of the support sheet to the protective film, characterized in that the reinforcing layer of the support sheet consists of a crosslinked resin having shearing stress S in the range of 6x10<6>-1.2x10<7> dyne/cm<2> before the thermal deformation of the support sheet has been carried out. A retroreflective sheet manufactured by this method has a high uniformity of the joint portions of the support sheet and protective film. Even when this retroflective sheet is used outdoors for a long period of time, troubles including the separation of the protective film do not substantially occur. This retroreflective sheet can be utilized extensively as a road sign board, a license plate for a vehicle, a sign board for construction work and an advertisement board.

Abstract: For reducing IR detectability of an armored vehicle propelled by an internal combustion engine, the exhaust system includes a muffler connected to the internal combustion engine and an exhaust line connected to the muffler and opening into the atmosphere. The exhaust line branches into a first line and a second line whereby the first line has at least one opening within the bottom of the vehicle and the second line has an opening within one of the outer surfaces of the vehicle other than the bottom of the vehicle. A first flap closes the at least one opening within the bottom of the vehicle. A second flap closes the opening within one of the outer surfaces of the vehicle other than the bottom of the vehicle. In extreme situations, for example, when touching the ground surface, an undesirable increase of the exhaust gas counter pressure and thus an output reduction of the internal combustion engine is prevented by exhausting the gases through the second line, thereby partially loosing the IR detectability protection provided by the system.

Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder for a standard force measuring machine has a rotatably mounted cylinder ring (9) which is connected for drive purposes to a rotary drive (15) and has two elastically deformable sealing rings (10, 12). The first sealing ring (10) bears sealingly against a working piston (8) projecting into the cylinder ring (9); the second sealing ring (12) bears sealingly against a guide piston (11) projecting in an opposing fashion into the cylinder ring (9). The use of elastically deformable sealing rings (10, 12) avoids a sealing gap which would lead to a change in the effective piston area and to flow forces in the axial direction. Because of the rotary motion of the cylinder ring (9), the friction forces occurring on the sealing rings (10, 12) extend only in the circumferential direction and have no effect on the axial force. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sensor for use in an optic system to detect current conditions in an environment. The sensor has a crystal member with a first waveguide extending from a top surface and a second waveguide extending from a bottom surface of a core member. Polarized light waves from a source are simultaneously communicated to the first and second waveguides. A first pressure is communicated to the top surface of the crystal member and an unknown pressure corresponding to the pressure of the environment is communicated to the bottom surface of the crystal member. The first pressure and the unknown pressure develop a pressure differential which act on the crystal member to deform the first and second waveguides. The deformation of the first and second waveguides modify the polarized light waves to create first and second output waves which are communicated to an optical interface where differences therebetween are extracted. The differences are analyzed by a computer to identify the current pressure and temperature of the environment.

Abstract: Novel retinoic acid-containing topical compositions in the form of creams, lotions, gels, and the like, are disclosed. These compositions contain a urethane compound having a molecular weight of up to about 200,000, prepared by reacting approximately two moles of a hydroxy-terminated linear alkylene or polyalkylene glycol with approximately one mole of a monomeric organic diisocyanate. The presence of the urethane compound leads to decreased percutaneous transmission of the retinoic acid, resulting in reduced skin irritation but undiminished therapeutic effectiveness of the retinoic acid when compared to retinoic acid-containing topical formulations otherwise identical except for the absence of a urethane compound. The compositions of this invention can be used to treat acne vulgaris and ameliorate photoaging of the skin, to retard and reverse the effects of senile keratosis, and to treat a variety of other skin conditions, such as hyperpigmentation and psoriasis, hitherto considered unsuitable for treatment with retinoic acid.
