Abstract: A curable film-forming composition is provided that on curing produces a coating, comprising in a medium (i) 10 to 90 percent by weight based on the total weight of resin solids in the film-forming composition of a crosslinking agent; (ii) 10 to 90 percent by weight based on the total weight of resin solids in the film-forming composition of a polymer containing a plurality of functional groups reactive with the crosslinking agent; and (iii) 20 to 85 percent by volume based on the total volume of the film-forming composition of particles having a mean particle size less than 100 nm. The particles further have an index of refraction sufficiently similar to that of the polymer of (ii) to minimize haze, and have an affinity for the medium sufficient to keep the particles suspended therein. The affinity of the particles for the medium is greater than the affinity of the particles for each other, thereby preventing agglomeration of the particles within the medium. The film-forming compositions exhibit improved scratch (mar) resistance compared to compositions of the prior art, as well as improved sag resistance when compared to similar coating compositions prepared without the particles. A multi-component composite coating composition is also provided. The coating composition comprises a pigmented film-forming composition serving as a base coat and a clear film-forming composition serving as a transparent topcoat over the base coat.

Abstract: Network nodes (10, 15, 20, 25, 30 40) of a communication network (100) determine whether the queue position (56, 57) of a data packet (60) exceeds a threshold (55). Data packets which are placed in a queue that has a depth greater than the threshold, and therefore will experience increased delay at this node, are remarked to a higher priority for expedited handling at the next hop. The next hop network node which handles that data packet will put it in a higher priority queue (51) such that it will experience less delay at the that node. In this way, a negative correlation in node-to-node delay is achieved and overall delay variation is reduced.

Abstract: The sensor (1) takes the form of an ampule enclosing a sensitive fluid, into which glucose can permeate. The viscosity of the fluid-glucose mixture is measured. A portable instrument associated with the sensor, is external to the body. It controls the measurement and its evaluation. The viscosity measurement is made by detecting the change in vibratory behavior of a magnetically-excited, mechanical oscillator in the ampule. The oscillatory decay is analyzed, when the magnet (6) is switched off. The oscillator (8) itself produces a magnetic field, measured by the instrument. The oscillator also homogenizes the fluid contents of the sensor. The oscillator has an interlocking connection with the magnet, and is formed by a flexible bar. The magnet is attached to one of the two ends of the bar, and is oscillated by a magnetic field (13). The magnetic field is produced by an electromagnetic unit in the instrument, or by a coil in the sensor. The sensor has a semi-permeable wall (2) permitting glucose to permeate through it. A plastic mounting (3) is provided in the sensor for the mechanical oscillator; its borders the fluid volume contained. It has a long bore (5) in which an impeller is held for mixing the fluid. The electromagnetic measurement arrangement includes a magnet (12) and coil (14) exciting it and connected to a microprocessor (15). A variant based on the foregoing principles is also described.
