Granted: 2012-02-07
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une composition de liant obtenue par la polymérisation de monomère d'acide acrylique dans l'eau en présence d'un accélérateur de durcissement comprenant un sel métallique alcalin d'un acide inorganique contenant du phosphore de façon à former un acide polyacrylique à faible poids moléculaire, puis par la réaction subséquente de cet acide polyacrylique à faible poids moléculaire avec un agent de réticulation polyhydroxy dans une étape de réticulation afin de préparer une composition qui convienne comme composant dans un liant destiné à la fibre de verre. Une amélioration importante consiste à mener l'étape de réticulation sans adjonction de catalyseur. On obtient par ailleurs des résultats satisfaisants sans les odeurs de soufres indésirables classiques.

Abstract: The invention here disclosed is a back wire ground clamp for a wiring device such as a switch or receptacle having a ground strap which supports an outwardly projecting ground lug having a front edge and adapted to receive a ground connection. The ground lug is coupled to a clamp plate by means of a screw which passes through a clearance opening in the clamp plate and is threaded into a receiving opening in the ground lug. The clamp plate supports a blocking tab which extends downward below the front edge of the ground lug and extends side ways for a distance which is less than the length of the front edge of the ground lug. The blocking tab prevents the clamp plate from rotating relative to the ground lug as the screw is tightened and defines an opening between the clamp plate and the ground lug along the front edge of the ground lug into which a single ground wire can be inserted.

Abstract: A method for removing ammonia and dust from a waste gas that is generated during the production of fertilizer, preferably urea, in which the waste gas is routed to a first scrubber and a cooling gas is routed to a second scrubber, and additional water is introduced into one scrubber and an aqueous solution is introduced into the other scrubber, both the waste gas and the cooling gas passing through at least one demister before emerging from the particular scrubber, is to be so developed that waste-gas pollution is greatly reduced.    This has been achieved by a method of the kind described in the introduction hereto, in that the additional water is first introduced into a fine-wash area of the first scrubber that is defined on the upper side by the demister, and on the bottom side by a separator tray that is impermeable to liquids and sprayed onto at least one demister. The aqueous solution that results in the fine-wash area is then routed to a second scrubber.
