Abstract: Mold removal from plastic bottles such as polyester and
polycarbonate bottles is significantly enhanced by adding to
a typical caustic soaking solution an effective amount of a
complex polyphosphate such as sodium tripolyphosphate and a
surfactant. The combination of the phosphate and the
surfactant significantly enhances mold removal. Mold removal
can be further enhanced by combining with the phosphate and
surfactant either a phosphonate and/or a chelating agent such
as sodium glucoheptonate. This combination signficantly
improves mold removal, but does not increase stress cracking
of the plastic bottle.

Abstract: Thermosetting powder coating compositions adapted to form a grainy textured finish
on heat sensitive substrates, especially wood products, such as particle board, conductive
particle board, and medium density fiber board, without damaging the substrates comprise an
epoxy resin, particularly bisphenol A type epoxy resins having low viscosities, either a
catalytic curing agent comprising an imidazole, a substituted imidazole, or adduct of an
imidazole or substituted imidazole and an epoxy resin, or a curing agent comprising an adduct
of a polyamine and an epoxy resin, or a combination of the catalytic curing agent and curing
agent, a texturing agent, a flow control agent, optional extender, and optional pigment. The
thermosetting powder coatings have a cure time/temperature ranging from about 30 seconds
at about 350°F peak substrate temperature down to about 20 minutes at about 225°F peak
substrate temperature which provides for either a rapid cure or low bake temperature to
prevent excessive heat exposure to the heat sensitive substrate, resulting in substantially no
physical or chemical degradation of the heat sensitive substrate during baking. The powder
coatings are applied to heat sensitive substrates, especially wood products, through electrostatic
spraying onto the substrate followed by heating to cure the textured finish uniformly on the
surfaces and edges of the substrate. Electrostatic spraying is performed with a triboelectric or
corona spray gun and heat curing is performed with a high intensity infrared oven, a
convection oven, or combination. Coated heat sensitive substrates having continuous grainy
textured finishes that are excellent for hiding substrate surface defects and later appearing
scratches are obtained.

Abstract: An abnormality determining method for a variable capacity
type turbocharger (35) always properly determines whether
there is an abnormality in a variable capacity mechanism (74).
During engine idling, an ECU (92) adjusts the fuel injection
amount by controlling an electromagnetic spill valve (43),
in order to adjust the engine revolution speed to a
predetermined value. If nozzle vanes (74) of the turbocharger
(35) are accidentally fixed in a closed state, the exhaust
gas flow is impeded so that the engine output decreases. To
correct the reduced output, the ECU (92) increases the fuel
injection amount. A fuel injection amount during a normal
operation is pre-stored in the ECU (92). The ECU (92) compares
a present fuel injection amount with the pre-stored fuel
injection amount. If the difference therebetween is equal
to or greater than a predetermined value, the ECU (92)
determines that an abnormality has occurred in the variable
capacity mechanism (nozzle vanes 74).
