Title: Method of producing olefin polymer graft copolymers
IPC: C08F255/02
Filed: 1991-01-19
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making graft copolymers of olefin polymers by contacting a particulate olefin polymer with a free radical polymerization initiator, e.g., a peroxide, and a vinyl monomer at about from 60 DEG  to 125 DEG  C, while controlling the monomer addition rate so that it does not exceed about 4.5 pph/min, and most preferably does not exceed about 3.0 pph/min, at any monomer feed level. To prevent polymer degradation, a non-oxidizing environment is maintained throughout the process, and residual free radicals are deactivated, and unreacted initiator is decomposed, before the graft copolymer is exposed to air.

Patent EP-0567332-A3 (EP)
IPC: H01L21/3213
Filed: 1993-04-22
Abstract: Complex metal structures are formed in microminiature dimensions utilizing multiple mask exposures which are capable of producing substantially arbitrary three-dimensional shapes. A first layer of a primary metal is electroplated onto an exposed plating base to fill a void in a photoresist, the photoresist is removed, and a secondary metal, which can constitute a sacrificial metal, is electroplated over the first layer and the plating base. The exposed surface of the deposited secondary metal is then machined down to a height which exposes the first metal to produce a substantially flat, uniform surface extending across both the primary and secondary metals. The secondary metal facilitates machining of the primary and secondary metals because of these mechanical stability provided by the secondary metal to the primary metal. After the first layers of the primary and secondary metals have been machined, another photoresist layer can be applied over the primary and secondary metals, and a second layer of primary metal is electroplated. A further layer of secondary metal can be also electroplated if desired. The process of machining and electroplating can be repeated until the desired structure is formed. Secondary metal is removed by an etchant which does not etch the primary metal.

Filed: 1995-11-29
Abstract: A spread spectrum communication apparatus receives
a preamble signal or a postamble signal as a pilot
signal, and applies a correlative demodulation by using
a single spread signal to the pilot signal, and a
correlative output obtained after the correlative
demodulation is compared to a reference value. If the
correlative output is equal or greater than the
reference value, then it is recognized as a preamble or
postamble signal. In accordance with a trailing edge of
the preamble signal or a leading edge of the postamble
signal, a start point or an end point of information
transmission can be recognized, respectively, in a lower
level of a communication system without using a unique
word in a data stream, thereby reducing overhead of
upper level protocol and improving data transmission
efficiency.

Abstract: In a production process of a cellulose acetate
which comprises (a) a reduced pressure-acetylation step
of acetylating a cellulose under a reduced pressure in
the presence of sulfuric acid or other acidic catalyst,
with distilling off a gaseous phase component of the
reaction system out of the system, and (b) a post-acetylation
step of allowing the acetylation to further proceed
by increasing the pressure as compared with the
pressure of the reduced pressure-acetylation step by
means of release of the pressure reduction of the reaction
system or the like, the shift operation from the
reduced pressure-acetylation step to the post-acetylation
step is conducted by taking a distilling rate of a
distillate in the reduced pressure-acetylation step as
an index to control the reaction temperature of the
post-acetylation step. The shift operation from the
reduced pressure-acetylation step to the post-acetylation
step may also be conducted by taking a distilling
rate after the distilling rate in the reduced pressure-acetylation
step has reached a maximum value.
