Inventor: JOHNSTON PETER
IPC: C02F1/70
Filed: 2002-12-18
Abstract: A process for impregnating microspheroidal catalyst support particles with at least one compound of a catalytically active group VIII noble metal, which process comprises the steps of: (a') impregnating the microspheroidal support particles by the incipient wetness technique with an aqueous solution of the at least one catalytically active group VIII noble metal, whilst agitating the support particles; and (b') drying the impregnated support particles produced in step (a')whilst agitating the impregnated support particles. The microspheroidal support particles are preferably silica, alumina, zirconia or mixtures thereof. Where the catalytically active group VIII noble metal is palladium, the process may be used to prepare a catalyst active for the fluid bed acetoxylation of ethylene to produce vinyl acetate.

Title: Closure with tear strip
Inventor: SCHWARZ STEFAN H
IPC: B65D43/06
Filed: 2004-12-30
Abstract: A closure for covering an opening of a container. The closure includes an inverted U-shaped peripheral channel for receiving the rim of a container therein. A tear strip is formed with the skirt of the closure via a tear line that circumscribes the skirt. A breakaway pull tab having an inner surface with U-shaped ribs, the combination of the surface and ribs being such as to provide a concavity which assists in gripping the tab to pull the strip away. Linear vertical ribs may be provided on the outer surface to provide further assistance in the gripping function. The skirt includes a recessed area underlying the pull tab for providing access to the pull tab.  An alternative embodiment uses a zig-zag structure of strengthening ribs in the skirt to reduce the amount of material necessary to provide the undercut. This reduces the probability of warpage in the closure structure.

Abstract: A system and method that centrally manages desktop packages is provided allowing the administrator to recover component files previously sent to servers located throughout the organization. Applications are assigned to users and workstations. Self-contained desktop packages are transmitted to servers. The servers, in turn, provide the desktop packages to clients. The packages and the components included in the packages include unique identifiers used to identify the packages and components. A manifest is maintained detailing the individual components included in each of the self-contained desktop files. When a disaster event occurs at the administrator's computer system, the administrator retrieves the self-contained desktop files from the servers to which the packages were previously transmitted. The administrator repopulates the component libraries by unpacking the components from the self-contained desktop files. The administrator uses the manifest to determine whether additional self-contained package files need to be retrieved from other servers.
