Abstract: The invention pertains to a process for enhancing the melt strength of a polypropylene(co)polymer with the aid of initiator dispersions. The use of initiator dispersions with a particulate initiator instead of the corresponding non-dispersed initiators or their dilutions or solutions results in a significant enhancement of the melt strength of the modified polymer, and a wide range of initiators turn out to be serviceable.

Abstract: In a thermal printer in which ink is transferred from a single-use thermal print ribbon to a substrate such as packaging material by energising selected print elements of a thermal print head (22), a first print run is executed by energising only a group of print elements in registry with one half of the ribbon width so that ink is depleted only from one half of the ribbon, and a second print run is executed by energising the same group of elements using the same ribbon but with the ribbon supply and take-up spools interchanged in order that ink is depleted only from the other half of the ribbon. This allows printing on comparatively narrow printing areas using ribbon which is at least twice the width of the printed area without undue ribbon wastage and with reduced ribbon breakage frequency compared to the breakage frequency with a ribbon of a width nearer to the width of the printed area. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Television images are presented by projecting light on a screen or sensitive film, while for photographs ambient light is used. The invention concerns a method for adding another additional light dimension so as to reduce the medium polarising effect. It consists in at least one electromagnetic spectrum light diffusing in a zone perpendicular to the image light emission, tangential to the image. In a non-exclusive example an apparatus is used showing an observer perceiving a photograph on paper. The usual ambient light is normally reflected by the photograph, whereto is added a light on the periphery and in the photograph medium. The lamp is masked from the observer. Said light diffuses into the photograph material and slightly behind by grazing, brushing the rear surface of the paper. The method also consists in using for television screens the direct light partially diffracted into a radial perpendicular spectrum, by a specific structure of the screen. The method and apparatus are useful in the fields of photography and audio-visual providing depth to the image, close to the original.
