Abstract: An optical diffraction grating (10) is produced by providing a mold (50) having a plurality of inclined grooves (58), which have a small clearance angle (γ). The mold (50) is covered by a curable material (M1). Said material is subsequently cured, i.e. hardened, and separated from the mold (50) to provide the diffraction grating (10). The inclined orientation of the grooves (58) allows expansion or contraction of the grating during the curing and separation steps such that the probability of mold breakage may be reduced. The inclined orientation of the grooves may also facilitate the separation of the grating (10) from the mold (50).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming an improved pultruded and clinched Z-axis fiber reinforced composite laminate structure (33). The upper and lower skins (51a, 51b) and the core (22) are pulled automatically through tooling (23) where the skin material is wetted-out with resin and the entire composite laminate (33) is preformed in nearly its final thickness. The preformed composite laminate continues to be pulled into an automatic 3-dimensional Z-axis fiber deposition machine (24) that deposits "groupings of fiber filaments" at multiple locations normal to the plane of the composite laminate structure and cuts each individual grouping such that a extension of each "grouping of fiber filaments" remains above the upper skin and below the lower skin. The preformed composite laminate then continues to be pulled into a secondary wet-out station (39). Next the preformed composite laminate travels into a pultrusion die (26) where the extended "groupings of fiber filaments" are all bent over above the top skin and below the bottom skin producing a superior clinched Z-axis fiber reinforcement as the composite laminate continues to be pulled, catalyzed, and cured at the back section of the pultrusion die. The composite laminate continues to be pulled by grippers that then feed it into a gantry CNC machine (36, 37) that is synchronous with the pull speed of the grippers (34, 35) and where computerized machining, drilling, and cutting operations take place. This entire method is accomplished automatically without the need for human operators.

Abstract: A new process is described, easy to perform on industrial scale, with high yield, for obtaining enantiomers of chrysanthemic acid starting from mixtures containing them. The process involves reacting said mixtures with enantiomers of 2- dimethylamino-1-phenyl-1 ,3-propanediol (DMPP) and 2-dimethylamino-1-[4- (methylthio)phenyl]propane-1 ,3-diol (MTDP) as chiral selectors. The invention includes salts of chrysanthemic acid with the aforesaid chiral selectors as process intermediates. The process allows operation in a single solvent rather than in solvent mixtures difficult to recover and reuse, and the final crystallization product does not incorporate molecules of solvent. The bases used are then recovered and reused in subsequent separations.
