Title: Corps composites contenant du silicium a tenacite accrue, et leur procedes de fabrication
Inventor: AGHAJANIAN MICHAEL K
IPC: C04B35/573
Filed: 2002-10-15
Abstract: La présente invention a trait à un corps composite contenant du silicium qui autrement serait fragile pouvant être transformé pour présenter une ténacité accrue. De manière plus spécifique, l'invention concerne la production d'un corps composite contenant du silicium, de préférence par une technique d'infiltration réactive. La céramique est sélectionnée de sorte qu'elle présente un coefficient de dilatation thermique supérieur à celui de la phase de silicium. Au moins à un certain moment durant le traitement, la phase de silicium présente une température supérieure à sa température de transition ténacité/fragilité d'environ 500 °C, et de préférence supérieure à son point de fusion. Le corps composite contenant du silicium ainsi formé est ensuite refroidi en dessous de sa transition ténacité/fragilité. Lors de la cuisson le rétrécissement de la phase céramique est supérieur à celui la phase de silicium, imposant ainsi à celle-ci un état de contrainte de compression. Lorsque le corps composite s'est refroidi sensiblement à la température ambiante, la contrainte de compression induite dans la phase de silicium suffisante pour conférer un degré de caractère semi-ductile à la phase de silicium Cette pseudo-ductilité se présente dans le corps composite sous la forme d'un accroissement significatif dans la ténacité du corps. Par exemple, lors de l'utilisation de particules de carbure de bore en tant que renfort de céramique au lieu de carbure de silicium (qui présente un coefficient de dilatation thermique semblable à celui du silicium), la ténacité s'est accrue par environ 30 pour-cent.

Abstract: A dual ended hair remover which includes a casing having a motor, an epilating
head for plucking hairs from the skin of a user attached to one end of the
casing, a depilating head for cutting the hairs from the skin of the user attached
to the other end of the casing, and a handle which covers one of the epilating
and depilating heads while providing power to the other one of the epilating
and depilating heads. The handle fits over one or the other end of the casing
and provides power to the head which is not covered. The handle may also
simultaneously provide power to the head which is covered. The handle
protects the user and the unused head by covering the unused head and provides
power to at least the head which is in use. Further, by incorporating the
epilating and depilating heads on the casing at the same time and at opposite
ends, ease of use is obtained. Still further, in the instances that only the head
which is in use is being driven, power conservation is achieved.

Abstract: In an automatic beam-axis adjustment system, a beam-axis
of a headlight (10L,10R) is gradually swivel to a position
determined based on a steering angle (STA) of a steering wheel
(17). The beam-axis returns to the initial position and a
swivel control is inhibited when a vehicle is at a stop or
slowly moving in an intersection, regardless of the steering
angle (STA). The swivel control is restarted after the vehicle
starts running straight ahead. In other words, the swivel
control is not restarted until the vehicle starts running
straight ahead even when the speed (SPD) of the vehicle
exceeds a predetermined value (SPDth). Therefore, the movement
of the headlight (10L,10R) does not disturb a driver.

Abstract: A method for the quantitative assay of n different analytes, where n is at least 2, is provided. The method consists of the following steps: (a) At least one labeled detector-binding partner is added to a test sample containing the analytes. This leads to the formation of detector-analyte complexes, each of which consists of one analyte molecule and one detector molecule. The number of detector binding partners x equals n−1. Each detector-binding partner binds to at least one analyte. At least one of the detector-binding partners can bind to at least two analytes. (b) The detector-analyte complexes formed in step (a) bind to capture-binding partners and form detector-analyte-capture complexes. The number of capture-binding partners y equals the number n of the analytes. Each capture-binding partner is specific for at least one detector-analyte complex. (c) The time-resolved formation of the detector-analyte-capture complexes is measured.

Abstract: The present invention generally provides a method for increasing the dispersibility of an anionic molecule of interest by (A) reacting the cationic molecue C+ of interest onto the surface of a cationically modified substrate ([Q+Q+]) having a high surface area. The present invention further provides for the resulting compositions whereby a cationic molecule of interest has been incorporated onto the surface of cationically modified high surface area substrate and where the resulting cation/ cationically modified substrate composition (such as a cation/organoclay composition) experiences greater dispersibility in a target application system than the anionic molecule of interest alone experiences in that same application system. The method of the present invention further serves to substantially reduce the water solubility of the cationic molecule of interest by incorporating it into a cationically modified high surface area substrate such as an organoclay.
