Abstract: @ A process for making amorphous semiconductor alloy films (22) and devices at high deposition rates utilizes microwave energy to form a deposition plasma. The process includes the steps of providing a source of microwave energy (17), coupling the microwave energy into a substantially enclosed reaction vessel (12) containing the substrate (14) onto which the amorphous semiconductor film (22) is to be deposited, and introducing into the vessel (12) reaction gases including at least one semiconductor containing compound. The microwave energy and the reaction gases form a glow discharge plasma within the vessel (12) to deposit an amorphous semiconductor film (22) from the reaction gases onto the substrate (14). The reaction gases, for example, can include silane (SiH<sub>4</sub>). silicon tetrafluoride (SiF<sub>4</sub>), germane, or germanium tetrafluoride (GeF<sub>4</sub>). To all of the foregoing, hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) can also be added. Dopants can also be added to the reaction gases to form p-type or n-type alloy films. Also, band gap increasing elements can be added to widen the band gap of the alloys.

Filed: 1984-02-01
Granted: 1987-05-07
Abstract: A system for heat-sealing thermoplastic conduits involves a thermoplastic sleeve surrounding an electrically conductive heating wire arranged in a coil. A bridging conductor is located adjacent the heating element, but is separated from it by an insulation layer of predetermined thickness. When the sleeve is heated by supplying electric power to the heating element, the entire heating element generates heat during a first phase in which fusion pressure is applied between the sleeve and pipes being connected. The bridging connector is forced into contact with selected coils of the heating element to initiate a second phase. In the second phase, the heat produced in the area of the selected coils is automatically reduced by short circuiting such coils.

Date Jun. 10, 1993Immediate-effect medicaments containing a pharmacologically active 2-arylpropionic acid derivate as a pharmaceutically applicable nanosol have a considerably improved action start and bioavailability of the active substance. The 2-arylpropionic acid derivates, for example ibuprofen, flurbiprofen and ketoprofen, that are scarcely soluble in an aqueous medium, are present in a gelatine-stabilized nanosol in a form that allows these active substances to be quickly and completely resorbed already in the stomach. The disclosed colloidal disperse system composed of a 2-arylpropionic acid derivate is prepared by selecting a gelatine or gelatine derivate according to their isoelectric point (IEP), so that their IEP is adapted to the charge of the 2-arylpropionic acid derivate particles, leading to a neutral charge when the gelatine or its derivate is combined with the undissolved 2-arylpropionic acid derivate at a determined pH value. The gelatine or its derivate are converted into an aqueous sol form, their pH value is set according to the IEP of the gelatine at a value that stabilizes the nanoparticles of 2-arylpropionic acid derivate at an approximately or totally neutral charge. Before or after said last step, the 2-arylpropionic acid derivate is dissolved in the aqueous gelatine sol or a solution of 2-arylpropionic acid derivate is blended with the aqueous gelatine sol.

Granted: 2002-10-03
Abstract: Synthetic comb copolymers which elicit controlled cellular response, methods of applying these polymers to various surfaces, and methods of using the polymers for modifying biomaterial surfaces, in tissue engineering applications and as drug delivery devices are provided. The comb copolymers are comprised of hydrophobic polymer backbones and hydrophilic, non-cell binding side chains which can be end-capped with cell-signaling ligands that guide cellular response. By mixing non-cell binding combs with ligand-bearing combs, the surface concentration and spatial distribution of one or more types of ligands, including adhesion peptides and growth factors, can be tuned on a surface to achieve desired cellular response. In one embodiment, the combs are used as stabilizing agents for dispersion polymerization of latexes. The comb-stabilized latexes can be applied to substrates by standard coating operations to create a bioregulating surface, or used as drug delivery agents. In another embodiment, the combs can be blended in small quantities to a hydrophobic matrix polymer and processed to affect the surface segregation of the comb. The comb copolymers are formed in one embodiment by providing a biodegradable polyester backbone that includes reactive groups, and reacting the reactive groups in the backbone with reactive chain ends on a low molecular weight hydrophilic polymer. In another embodiment, non-biodegradable comb copolymers are formed by free radical synthesis of a hydrophobic monomer and a hydrophilic macromonomer. In all of the above embodiments, a portion of the hydrophilic polymer side chains can be covalently coupled to cell-signaling ligands such as adhesion peptides or growth factors to control cellular response.

Title: Improved innerseal for a container and method of applying
IPC: B65D77/20
Filed: 1990-01-17
Granted: 1993-07-29
Abstract: An easily removable innerseal for a container and method of application relates to an improved arrangement having a body portion (22) adapted for fitting over the upper rim of a container and a flexible element (24) attached to the body portion for a user to grip. The body portion is provided with a lower bonding layer, which includes a first bonding portion (26) and a second bonding portion (28) adhered to the first portion, and a layer (30) to prevent fluid from passing therethrough. The bonding force between the first and second bonding portions is designed to be weaker than the bonding force between the bonding layer and the container. In addition, the rupture strength of the first bonding portion is less than either of the bonding forces. As a result, the force required to remove the innerseal from the container is not dependent upon the amount of heat applied during sealing, because delamination will occur between the two bonding portions in an area over the container rim (14), leaving a residue of the first adhesive portion attached to the rim. By gripping the flexible element and pulling it upwardly, a user can remove the innerseal from the container without having to puncture or scrape the innerseal with a sharp object, which is frequently required to remove innerseals of the type commonly in use today. The method of application includes the steps of applying the body portion of the innerseal around the rim portion of a container and passing the container through an induction type heating station.
