Patent CA-2729888-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BACKER MICHAEL
IPC: C08F255/00
Filed: 2009-07-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for grafting hydrolysable silane groups to a polyolefin, comprising reacting the polyolefin with an unsaturated silane, containing an olefinic -C=C- bond or acetylenic -C.ident.C- bond and having at least one hydrolysable group bonded to Si, or a hydrolysate thereof, in the presence of means capable of generating free radical sites in the polymer. The silane contains an aromatic ring or a further olefinic double bond or acetylenic unsaturation, the aromatic ring or the further olefinic double bond or acetylenic unsaturation being conjugated with the olefinic -C=C- or acetylenic -C.ident.C- unsaturation of the silane. The unsaturated silane may also contains electron-withdrawing moiety with respect to the olefinic -C=C- or acetylenic -C.ident.C- bond. The invention permits to provide a silane-modified polyolefin having a high grafting efficiency while limiting/preventing polymer degradation by chain scission. The silane-modified polyolefin can be further reacted with a polar surface, a filler or a polar polymer or reacted on itself to crosslink the polyolefin and obtain enhanced physical properties of the composites made thereof.

Abstract: A technique for collecting income-tax information is described. This collection technique allows a user (such as a taxpayer) to provide income-tax information by submitting an image of a document, such as an income-tax summary or form. After receiving the image, the income-tax information is extracted from the document, and a subset of the income-tax information that is relevant to the user is determined. This subset of the income-tax information is then provided to the user for validation, and the user subsequently provides feedback about the subset of the income-tax information, such as acceptance of the subset or correction of any errors. Furthermore, after receiving the user feedback, fields in an income-tax return of the user may be populated using the subset of the income-tax information.

Abstract: A technique of controlling a steam generating boiler system includes dynamically tuning a rate of change of a disturbance variable (DV) to control operation of a portion of the boiler system, and in particular, to control a temperature of output steam to a turbine. The rate of change of the DV is dynamically tuned based on a magnitude of an error or difference between an actual and a desired level of an output parameter, e.g., output steam temperature. In an embodiment, as the magnitude of the error increases, the rate of change of the DV is increased according to a function f(x). A dynamic matrix control block uses the dynamically-tuned rate of change of the DV, a current output parameter level, and an output parameter setpoint as inputs to generate a control signal to control a field device that, at least in part, affects the output parameter level.
