Patent CA-2622448-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BITTER THOMAS
IPC: G02F1/1343
Filed: 2008-02-26
Abstract: An LCD display element is provided that achieves a uniform LCD display panel by arranging individual LCD  display elements side-by-side. The margin areas outside of the viewing field in the vicinity of the left and the right lateral edges of the LCD display element are configured to be equally narrow. The narrow width of the margin areas is achievable because row leads do not contact the row electrodes at one of their ends, but rather are routed in the spacing areas between individual column electrodes.  Moreover, the electrical contact points are located in the spacing areas. In this manner, the wide lateral margin in the area of the contact points of the row electrodes, as in conventional LCD display elements, is avoided. Because the row leads are routed on the interior of the first cover plate, no contact strip is necessary in the area of penetration through the adhesive rim.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an activated biocidal aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide (activated peroxide solution) obtainable by subjecting an initial solution of hydrogen peroxide in water to a non-thermal electrical discharge process, such as a glow discharge plasma or a corona discharge. The resulting activated peroxide solution containing 0.05 to 20%  (w/w) hydrogen peroxide has a pH in the range of 2 to 4, an oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in the range of 400 to 600 mV, and the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 0.05% to 0.5% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 500 µSiemens/cm, the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 0.1% to 5% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 450 µSiemens/cm, and the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 5% to 20% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 350 µSiemens/cm. The pH, ORP and conductivity are measurable under conditions essentially without the presence of additional compounds in the solution. The biocidal activity of the solution is substantially higher than that of a common peroxide solution. The biocidal solution may be used for any purpose where disinfecting and/or sanitizing and/or cleaning and/or bleaching and/or preservative activity is required. The present invention further discloses a non-thermal electrical discharge process, in particular a pulsed corona induced low frequency pulsed DC plasma discharge process, for the preparation of the activated peroxide solution.
