Title: Blends of high nitrile polymers and polyolefins and method for the preparation thereof
IPC: C08L33/18
Filed: 1989-08-22
Abstract: A polymer blend comprises a high nitrile polymer and a compatible 
polyolefin functionalized with an unsaturated compound selected from the group 
consisting of unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters, anhydrides and imides. Such 
blends can be used to form films and membranes having improved thermal, 
mechanical and optical properties. The blend combines the low oxygen 
permeability of high nitrile polymers with the low water vapor permeability of 
the polyolefins and are, therefore, useful in the packaging industry. A method 
for forming blends of high nitrile polymers with polyolefins includes the step of 
functionalizing a polyolefin prepared from a monoolefin having from 2 to about 6 
carbon atoms with an unsaturated compound selected from the group consisting of 
unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters, anhydrides and imides and blending from 
about 99 to 1 parts by weight of the functionalized polyolefin with from about 1 
to 99 parts by weight of the high nitrile polymer.

The frames are bounded by a start of frame delimiter and an end of frame delimiter which may also act as a connect link control and a disconnect link control, respectively, and the connections are made through the dynamic switch having dynamic-switch ports. The state of a dynamic-switch port is changed dependent on its present state, the dynamic connection requested, and the direction and type of frames passing through the dynamic-switch port.
Patent EP-0376936-A3 (EP)
Title: A ziegler-natta catalyst component
IPC: C08F4/60
Filed: 1990-01-02
Abstract: In the preparation of a supported procatalyst intended for the polymerization of olefins, particles are formed of magnesium dihalide and alcohol. The particles are reacted with an organic compound of a metal from the groups I-III, and the resulting particulate product is activated by means of a titanium and/or vanadium compound and optionally a donor, and optionally a prepolymerization is carried out for the activated particles. A problem of such a method is how to form particles of magnesium dihalogenide and alcohol having a structure advantageous for the polymerization of olefins. The problem has in the present invention been solved so that the particles are formed by spray crystallizing (spray freezing) a mixture of magnesium dihalide and alcohol to complex particles of magnesium dihalide and alcohol. The hydroxyl content of the particles so obtained is much greater than earlier, which results in a much more active procatalyst than the preceding ones.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for spraying
powder into the interior of welded hollow can bodies (12) from
a spray gun mounted to the welding arm (14) of a can forming
machine (10). The spray gun (24) can either apply a stripe of
highly charged powder on the welded seam areas of hollow
can bodies (12), or can simultaneously apply a coating of
powder having a first thickness on the longitudinally
welded seam areas and a second thickness less than the
first thickness on the remainder of the interior surface.
Air is vented off from the powder flow being transported
through the welding arm (14) so that the powder to air ratio
is increased. Air is introduced at the downstream end
of the welding arm (14) to provide a suction force to help
draw the powder flow through the welding arm (14) and to
increase the velocity of the powder flow for better tribo
charging of the powder in the gun and to improve spray
pattern stability. A flow of cleaning air through the
powder spray gun (24) prevents powder from collecting on the
front surface of an offset nozzle (30) secured to the spray
gun. The gun assembly is affectively grounded to prevent
arcing, and has an exterior shape which has been
geometrically configured to improve powder coating of the
can.
