Patent AU-3920393-A (AU)
Title: Controlled porosity expanded polytetrafluoroethylene products and fabrication
Inventor: MARTAKOS PAUL
IPC: B29C48/08
Filed: 1993-03-12
Abstract: A method of forming porous articles with a varying pore distribution by extrusion from a billet with a varying lubricant distribution. A single-polymer polytetrafluoroethylene is extruded and then stretched and sintered to provide a differential porous PTFE structure composed of fibers and nodes connected to one another by these fibers. The microfibrous structure has a portion within the cross-section that possesses a different pore size, accompanied by a different node and fiber geometry, than adjacent areas within that cross section. In a vascular graft, the pores taper inwardly, providing a fluid-tight lumen wall structure that prevents leakage, yet promotes cellular ingrowth and natural tissue regeneration. A node structure of radially-oriented plates provides flexibility, suture strength, and enhanced protection against collapse.

Abstract: An oscillator screen cleaning apparatus (10, 110) includes a housing (12, 112) having a plurality of spray nozzles (18, 118) to spray a printing screen (16, 116) with solvent. An oscillating mechanism (25, 128) oscillates the screen in front of the spray nozzles, which nozzles (18, 118) are arranged in opposing grid patterns for complete coverage of the screen with sprayed solvent. The srprayed solvent is collected, filtered and resprayed onto the screen at a high spray rate. Housing (12, 112) is coupled to a vapor recovery system (110, 145) to keep solvent vapors from escaping into the environment. In one embodiment (110), guide brackets (170) guide the screen (16, 116) perpendicular to the nozzles (18, 118) from the screen's sides to handle screens of different heights. A reservoir (120) with a sloped wall (140) and a pump (123) recaptures sprayed solvent and pumps it to the nozzles (18, 118) for recycling. A wipe down booth (152) captures excess solvent from a screen (16, 116) removed from the housing (12, 112) and directs the captured solvent to the reservoir (120).
