Abstract: This invention relates generally to crystalline propylene polymers, to methods for their production and to methods for their use in oriented film applications. Specifically, this invention relates to crystalline propylene polymer compositions comprising both propylene homopolymer and propylene copolymer. The compositions are prepared using metallocene catalyst systems comprising at least two metallocenes in a polymerization process that involves the sequential or parallel polymerization of propylene homopolymer and copolymer using propylene with a small amount of comonomer, preferably ethylene. The resulting polymers are excellent for use in the production of biaxially oriented films. Films prepared with these propylene polymers have a significantly broader processability range and can be evenly stretched at lower temperature compared to films prepared from traditional propylene polymer.

Abstract: The invention is a method of enhancing the strength of paper products, particularly the dry strength, without adversely affecting repulpability. It is also directed to the resulting products. It is particularly applicable but not limited to products with significant amounts of secondary fiber in the furnish. Preferably, about 10-30% of the fiber is separated from the furnish at some point prior to sheeting. This is treated with a cationic wet strength resin which is allowed to bond to the fiber. Cationic polyamide-epichlorohydrin resins are particularly useful. The treated fiber is them mixed with the untreated balance of the fiber at some point before the paper machine. Screnning fines on repulping do not normally exceed 2-3%.

Abstract: A carbon dioxide dry cleaning system features a pair of liquid carbon dioxide storage tanks in communication with a compressor. A sealed cleaning chamber contains the objects being dry cleaned. By selectively pressurizing the storage tanks with the compressor, liquid carbon dioxide is made to flow to the cleaning chamber through cleaning nozzles so as to provide agitation of the objects being dry cleaned. Liquid carbon dioxide displaced from the cleaning chamber returns to the storage tanks. A still is disposed within one of the storage tanks and receives soiled liquid carbon dioxide as it is returned from the chamber. The pressure in the storage tank causes the soiled liquid carbon dioxide in the still to boil off. The gas is communicated to a third tank.

Abstract: It may be necessary to provide conductors at very small distances from one another when electronic circuits, for example integrated circuits, are manufactured on an insulating substrate. A multilayer wiring system is often used in that case. The invention renders it possible to make very small inter-electrode gaps in a single conductor layer. To achieve this, the conductor layer is covered with a comparatively thick dielectric layer (4, 5) in which windows (8) are formed which extend over only part of the dielectric layer. Then an auxiliary layer (9) is provided which has depressions at the areas of the windows (8). Windows (11) are formed in the dielectric layer by anisotropic etching-back with dimensions which are substantially smaller than the dimensions of the original windows (8). The windows (11) may be used as etching windows or oxidation windows for the subsequent formation of the definitive conductor pattern.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of using a storage-stable, pre-stained 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate in an enzyme substrate. The TMB substrates comprise: (a) a water-based TMB substrate composition which includes a peroxide, e.g., hydrogen peroxide or urea hydrogen peroxide, and (b) a dye which is soluble therein. Suitable dyes to be included in the substrate preferably have an absorbance at 450 nm of at the most milli absorbance units. Examples of dues are Pholixine B, Eosin B and Quinaldine Red. The substrates are advantageous in that they include a dye which is visible to the human eye. This is especially valuable when the substrates are handled and measured. The substrates are especially suitable for enzyme assays such as enzyme-linked-immunosorbent-assays (ELISA), e.g. horse radish peroxide (HRP) is used. The substrates may advantageously include less than 5% organic solvents and a solubility increasing agent such as polyvinylalcohol. The substrates are storage-stable for more than 12 months.
