Abstract: The invention comprises polysilylureas composed of at least two recurring units of the formula <FORM:1076721/C3/1> where R is a divalent organic radical, R1 is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical which may have an inert substituent thereon; and (B) is (i) a divalent organic radical terminated by two nitrogen atoms each of which may be substituted by a monovalent hydrocarbon radical, which hydrocarbon radical may have an inert substituent thereon; or (ii) a divalent heterocyclic organic radical containing two nitrogens in the ring structure, one of the free valency bonds of (B) being on one nitrogen atom and the other on the second nitrogen atom.  The polysilylureas may be prepared by effecting reaction between (1) a diisocyanate compound of formula OCN-R-NCO; and(2) a triorganosilyl amine of Formula (II) R13Si-(B)-SiR13. The polysilylureas may be hydrolysed to remove the -SiR13 groups to form polyureas composed of at least two recurring units of formula <FORM:1076721/C3/2> and disiloxanes of formula R13Si-O-Si-R13. The triorganosilyl amines of Formula II can be prepared by reacting a diamine of formula H-(B)-H with a triorganohalo silane of formula R13Si-X, where X is a halogen atom. Certain of the triorganosilyl amines are of formula <FORM:1076721/C3/3> where Q is a divalent aryl radical selected from phenylene, diphenylene, diphenylene oxide and diphenylene alkanes. Examples describe the preparation of (a) N,N1-bis (trimethylsilyl)-p,p1-diaminodiphenyl ether, the polysilylurea derived from this and toluene-2,4-diisocyanate and the polyurea derived from this; (b) N,N1-bis (trimethylsilyl) - m - phenylene diamine and the polysilylurea derived from this and hexamethylene diisocyanate; (c) N,N1-bis (trimethylsilyl) - p - phenylene diamine and the polysilylurea derived from this and (i) paraphenylenediisocyanate and (ii) toluene diisocyanate; (d) the polysilylurea derived from toluene - 2,4 - diisocyanate and N,N1 - bis (trimethylsilyl) piperazine; (e) N,N1-bis (trimethylsilyl) - p,p1-diaminodiphenyl; (f) N,N1-bis (trimethylsilyl)-p,p1-diaminophenylmethane. Diaphragms and wire insulating material may be made from the polyurea mixed with a polyamine resin or a rubber of a butadiene-acrylo-nitrile copolymer.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the regeneration of used bleaching clays and earths
IPC: B01J20/34
Filed: 1937-06-09
Abstract: Fuller's earth, Florida earth, franconite, and like earths that have been used to bleach oils and fats are regenerated by solvent extraction and steaming to remove the bulk of the retained oil or fat, followed by heating in presence of air to 500-550 DEG  C. while being thoroughly agitated until combustion gases are no longer evolved.  For example, used clay is washed with benzine until the residual oil content is at most 1 per cent, is then steamed for 2 hours, carefully heated to 500-550 DEG  C. in a muffle furnace with continual turning and stirring until combustion gases no longer escape, and finally allowed to cool off gradually.

Title: Improvements in or relating to cranes
IPC: B60P1/54
Filed: 1924-03-20
Abstract: 232,288. Spencer, H. E. March 20, 1924. Vehicle fittings; jib cranes.-In a jib crane, particularly designed for use on a road vehicle, a locking device is provided which prevents movement of the hoisting rope relatve to the jib and enables this rope to be used for luffing, stops are provided to limit the movement of the jib, and means is provided for automatically declutching the winding drum and driving gear after a predetermined length of rope has been wound on or payed out. The hoisting rope 17, Fig. 1, is wound on a drum 16 and passes round rollers 18, 20, 26 and load carrying roller 43 to an anchorage 42. The roller 26 and anchorage 42 are carried by cheeks 25, Fig. 2, which are pivoted to a bracket 23 provided with wheels 24 for travelling on the horizontal portion of the inverted U-shaped jib 21. The bracket 23 is moved laterally by chains 27 in order that the hoisting appliance may be used over either of the rows of containers 15. The cheeks 25 are provided with projections 49, 50 concentric with the pulley 26, the lower of which is the shorter. Rollers on the spindle of the pulley 43 can pass the projections 49 when the jib is in the position 73, Fig. 1, but bear against the underside of the projections 50. If the rope is now wound on to the drum, the jib will be raised and the rollers will travel along the projections 50. Until the jib has nearly reached the vertical position, backward movement of the jib is prevented by the projections 49. The raising of the jib is limited by a member 32 fixed to the jib at one end and connected to it at the other by a member 33. A slot 36 in the member 33 receives a pin 37 mounted in one end of a lever 38 pivoted to the framework of the vehicle. When the pin reaches the lower end of the slot, the limit of the downward movement of the jib is reached. When thepin drops into a notch at the upper end of the slot, the jib is locked in the fully raised position. Specification 210,879 is referred to.

The lower end of the pillar is engaged by a plunger 10 urged upwardly by a spring 9 and depressed by a treadle 7 to allow the pillar to be adjusted to a vertical position with the aid of levels 29 set at right angles. The levels are carried by a vertically adjustable slide having a pair of graduated arms 28, the slide being set to the level of the seat. An adjustable cross-bar 27 is set to the level of the shoulder-blades and used with separate graduated bars fitted with levels for determining the depth and width of the chest. For measuring the shoulders a pair of arms 16 are independently adjustable vertically along rods 14, 15 carried by a slide itself vertically adjustable. The arms 16 have limited lateral swing and are maintained in vertically adjusted position by locks released by handles 24. For transport, the arms 16 can be swung upwardly parallel with the pillar on actuation of latches 22.

Abstract: 1,224,695. De-gassing Pt and Pt-alloy powders. Sintered Pt containing coatings. E.I. DU PONT DE NEMOURS & CO. March 27, 1969 [March 27, 1968], No.16194/69. Heading C7D. Pt powder or Pt-containing powder is de-gassed by mixing it with an inert metal oxide powder, heating the mixture, and then cooling the mixture and separating the de-gassed Pt from the metal oxide. Suitable metal oxides have melting points above the heating temperature and may be, for example, MgO, CaO, BaO, SrO, ZnO, CoO or NiO. The metal oxide powder acts to separate the Pt particles so that agglomeration does not occur and preferably constitutes at least 50 vol. % of the mixture. Heating may be performed at 1000 -1800 C. Final separation may be effected by disolving the metal oxide in, for example, HC1, H 2 SO 4 , HNO 3 , CH 3 COOH or CC1 3 COOH. In Example 3, an alloy powder composed of Pt 50%-Pd25%-Au25% is degassed. The de-gassed powders may be used to prepare metallizing compositions for application of fired-on coatings on ceramic substrates e.g. in multi-layer circuit board assemblies and capacitors. Such compositions contain the de-gassed powder disposed in a vehicle such as water or an organic liquid e. g. an aliphatic alcohol, an ester of such alcohol (e.g. acetate or propionate), a terpene such as pine oil or alpha - or beta - terpineol, or a solution of polymethylmethacrylate of lower alcohol or ethyl cellulose in a solvent such as the monobutylether of ethylene glycol monoacetate. The composition may also contain an inorganic binder e.g. glass, bismuth oxide or cerium oxide, and waxes or thermoplastic resins.
