Title: Process for producing rubbery polymer particle and process for producing resin composition containing the same
Inventor: IKEDA YOSHIHIRO
IPC: C08L21/00
Filed: 2004-09-01
Abstract: A process for efficiently producing an agglomerate resulting from removal of impurities from a water-base latex of rubbery polymer particles or dry powder thereof and producing a dispersion having rubbery polymer particles dispersed in an organic solvent; and a process for efficiently producing a resin composition of low impurity content, in which the state of dispersion of rubbery polymer particles is excellent, from the above dispersion. In particular, a rubbery polymer particle agglomerate of low impurity content is obtained by first mixing a water-base latex of rubbery polymer particles with an organic solvent exhibiting partial solubility in water, bringing the resultant mixture into contact with water to thereby form a rubbery polymer particle agglomerate, and thereafter separating the water phase from the agglomerate/water phase mixture. Further, a resin composition of low impurity content having rubbery polymer particles favorably dispersed is obtained by first adding an organic solvent to the above agglomerate, mixing the obtained dispersion with a polymerizable organic compound having a reactive group, such as an epoxy resin, and thereafter distilling off volatile components.

Title: Hair-removal device and method of using one such device
Inventor: BROTTIER YVES VINCENT
IPC: G05F1/02
Filed: 2004-11-12
Abstract: The apparatus operates by a series of pulses of an electric current crossing a flash lamp. The current generates a measuring voltage which is compared to a reference voltage to control open or closed state of a switch (SW) using hysteresis, and to regulate the current by cutting high frequency. The current regulation permits the lamp to remain at a constant power during visible and/or infrared radiation pulse duration. The current is produced due to the discharges of an electrolytic capacitor and is controlled by the switch. The measuring voltage is generated during each discharge of the electrolytic capacitor, and is proportional to the current. The flash lamp, the electrolytic capacitor and the switch forms a main loop.
