Abstract: An improved molten metal spray forming atomization ring converter adapted for the spray forming of a refined molten metal from a molten metal refining or melting chamber wherein the molten metal is atomized into tiny molten droplets by gas impingement in a stream of molten metal and to the means by which the molten metal droplets are preferentially directed to and deposited on a target surface. The molten metal spray forming atomization ring converter is adapted to control the flow of liquid metal droplets and to avoid a backflow of such droplets during the gas atomization by providing means, such as small apertures to the inner diameter of the ring, by providing large holes through the inner diameter and adding a porous metal filter to cover the large holes or by providing a gas supply system independent from the atomization system gas supply, such that a pressure or diffused source of gas is provided at the inner bore. These modifications produce a relatively small mass flow of gas sufficient to feed the entrainment requirement of the high speed jets, but sufficiently low enough to avoid preatomization of the liquid metal wherein backsplash of the metal is reduced and/or prevented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Absorbent articles such as disposable diapers, incontinent briefs, diaper holders, training pants, feminine hygiene garments and the like, that have a unique waist feature that improves the dynamic fit as well as the containment characteristics of the absorbent article. Such absorbent articles comprise a chassis assembly preferably comprising a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, and an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet; an extensible waist belt; and a closure system for maintaining the absorbent article on the wearer. The extensible waist belt provides an extensible feature that provides a more comfortable and contorting fit by initially conformably fitting the diaper to the wearer and by sustaining this fit. While each extensible waist belt may be constructed from a number of extensible materials, the extensible waist belt preferably comprises a structural elastic-like film web. The structural elastic-like film (SELF) web exhibits an elastic-like behavior in the direction of elongation without the use of added elastic materials.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE95/00233 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 21, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 21, 1996 PCT Filed Feb. 16, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/22587 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 24, 1995The invention relates to the protection of tubular reactors or heat exchangers against coke formation in plants for converting hydrocarbons and other organic compounds at high temperatures in the gaseous phase. The problem in such plants is that the usual steam/air cleaning processes for removing coke deposits lead to an increase in the catalytic activity of the material surfaces, which in turn shortens the service life of the plants. The object of the invention is to substantially reduce coking and to maintain the long-term passivity of steels for long operational periods. According to the invention, the process for producing thermally cracked products from hydrocarbons while simultaneously reducing the coke deposits on heat exchange surfaces is characterized by the fact that 20 to 1000 ppm of an additive composition containing organically bound silicon and organically bound sulphur is added to the feed to be cracked and the mixture is brought into contact with the heat exchange surfaces at temperatures from 400 DEG  to 1000 DEG  C.

Abstract: A method for managing a plurality of different fonts that are installed on a computer. Raw font data for the plurality of fonts are stored in files on a computer hard disk (34). At least some of the fonts for which a character set is defined by the raw data are installed in the graphics user interface operating system running on a computer. The installed fonts are listed in a file (40). The method enables a user (22) to create one or more font menu lists (28) that are displayed to the user whenever selection of a font for use in a document by an application is desired. The font menu lists are subsets of the complete list of installed fonts on the operating system. Applications (42) can access any of the fonts installed on the system, but whenever a font must be selected by the user for use in a document, a more limited list of fonts appropriate for the application then running on the computer is displayed, reducing confusion as to the appropriate fonts that should be considered. Fonts are also generated on-the-fly, using PANOSE TM  numbers, if a font required for use in a document by an application is not installed. Special fonts, which are defined by PANOSE TM  numbers and other data that fine tune the PANOSE TM  number description, are included in the list of installed fonts, and are also generated on-the-fly.
