Abstract: A crimped polyamide fibre is provided with frequent, spaced, weak spots along its length, the frequency and severity of the weak spots being such that there is a significant decrease in the break tenacity of fibre samples as the sample length is increased. Crimping is preferably effected mechanically and then the fibre treated with an aqueous solution of an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate, nitric acid or chromic acid, excess reagent being removed by centrifuging and then the fibres heated.

Patent GB-606123-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in pulse generating circuits, for use for example for signal change indicators
IPC: H04L25/02
Filed: 1945-07-18
Abstract: 606,123. Code telegraphy; pulse generating circuits. BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION, FATEHCHAND, R. R. T., and WATSON, S. N. July 18, 1945, No. 18461. [Class 40 (iii)] A circuit for generating a uni-directional pulse in response to a change of an applied signal voltage from a positive to a negative polarity or vice versa comprises bias voltage input terminals connected in series with an impedance element to two terminals of an impedance network including a rectifier system, and two further terminals of the network for applying the signal voltage to the impedance network which is arranged in such a manner that a change in the signal voltage from either polarity to the opposite polarity serves to change in one and the same sense the impedance of the impedance network between the first two terminals thereof and hence the magnitude of the bias voltage appearing between the first said two terminals whereby a uni-directional voltage pulse is produced between the first said two terminals of the network. The bias battery B is connected through equal resistors R1 to series resistors R2 connected in parallel to pairs of rectifiers a, band c, d at terminals T1, T2 which are connected to equal resistancecapacity circuits R3, C with equal output resistors R4 connected in parallel across the condensers. The rectifiers b, d pass small currents in respect of the bias voltage so that the input impedance is relatively high when no signal voltages are being applied to the input terminals T3, T4. When a positive signal voltage is applied, rectifiers a, d pass substantial currents and the input impedance is reduced considerably. A negative signal voltage causes considerable current to flow through the rectifiers b, c with a similar reduction in the input impedance. During the low impedance condition, a substantial voltage drop occurs across the resistor R1 and the charge on the condensers is small. When the signal changes from positive to negative or vice versa the voltage is removed temporarily from T3, T4, the input impedance rises to its higher value and since the voltage drop across R1 falls, the condensers C charge up positively and negatively through the resistors R3, the two condensers always charging in the same sense whether the signal changes from positive to negative or vice versa. When, after a short interval, the signal voltage is again applied, the input impedance falls and the condensers are discharged. The width of the pulses generated across the output resistors R4 is mainly determined by the values of the condensers C and the resistors R3 and may be adjustable by making the resistors R3 variable. The pulses may be applied to a transformer designed to pass a band of frequencies extending from the 1 maximum repetition rate of the pulses to - T where T is the pulse width in seconds.
