Title: Method of testing starch-containing substances and products thereof
IPC: G01N33/10
Filed: 1958-09-26
Abstract: In testing the diastatic condition of a starch-containing substance, a suspension of the disintegrated substance, e.g. flour, in water, of a definite concentration, is rapidly heated to a temperature above the gelatinization temperature of the starch and the time taken for transformation from a gelatinized condition to a viscous liquid is measured.  Alternatively, the suspension is heated at a temperature above the said gelatinization temperature, for a given time, and the fraction which is transformed from a gelatinized condition into a viscous liquid is measured.  In a further alternative, a plurality of suspensions of the disintegrated substance in water, of differing concentrations extending over a suitable range, are heated at a temperature above the said gelatinizing temperature, and the concentration at which transformation from a gelatinized condition into a viscous liquid just fails to occur is noted.  The starch-containing substance may contain or be mixed with an acid or alkali, an organic or inorganic salt, a fat, a yeast, an enzyme preparation and a buffering substance.

Title: Improvements in or relating to means for conversion of energy
IPC: F01K25/10
Filed: 1954-10-26
Abstract: 796,495. Vapour engine power plant; gasturbine plant. CATTERMOLE, H. Oct. 26, 1955 [Oct. 26, 1954], No. 30863/54. Classes 110 (3) and 122 (3). [Also in Group XXVIII] A method of converting energy involves the transmission of power by means of the circulation of a fluid which boils below 0‹ C. from a container through a turbine 25, Fig. 1, and then through a compressor 65 back to the container, the fluid in its passage from the container to the turbine being led through an expansion chamber 18 where it extracts heat from the fluid leaving the compressor. The fluid may be liquid air or a mixture of SO 2  and CO 2  in liquid form in either equal proportions or two parts of SO 2  to one of CO 2 . In the arrangement shown in Fig. 1, SO 2  and CO 2  contained in separate chambers 10, 11 are led through a control valve 15 and automatic valve 17 to the expansion chamber 18 of a heat-exchanger 60 mounted on the compressor 65. The expansion chamber, which is fitted with a throttle valve 12, has a part-circular cross-section widening out at its closed end where a curved cone 21, Fig. 3, deflects the gases vaporized in the heatexchanger outward through two diametricallyopposed nozzle boxes to the turbine 25 in which two rings of vanes 27, 36 are carried by a disc 29 on a rotor shaft 30 with two sets of stator blades 32, 33 disposed between them in the region of the nozzle boxes; the turbine shaft drives an output shaft 53 through reduction gear 51 and passes through a gland fitted with spring-pressed carbon and steel rings 38. Gas leaves the turbine through two outlets and passes through pipes 66, 67, 68 to the compressor 65 and then via a non-return valve 70 to a passage 71 in the heat-exchanger 65 back to the container 11 in liquid form. The input shaft 64 of the compressor may be driven by an external source of power 58 or, if desired, by the turbine 25, in which case some other energy must be injected into the system as, for example, by applying heat to the expansion chamber from ignited gaseous or liquid fuel through a heat-exchanger. The ignited fuel may alternatively be used to operate turbine or other means for driving the compressor. Additionally, the rotor blades may be mounted in electrically-insulated bearings and power applied electrically to cause a discharge between the rotor and stator blades which by heating and expanding the gases applies power to the drive of the turbine. If desired, atomic energy may be used as a source of energy for injecting into the system. Specification 796,494 is referred to.

Patent GB-829337-A (GB)
Title: Phosphate additives for liquid petroleum hydrocarbon compositions
IPC: C10L1/26
Filed: 1958-09-30
Abstract: Fuel oil and lubricating oil compositions comprise a normally liquid petroleum hydrocarbon, e.g. gasoline, aviation fuels such as JP-1, JP-4 and JP-5, diesel fuels, domestic and industrial fuel oils and lubricating oils, and from 0.005 to 5.0 wt. per cent of an alkylpolyoxyalkylene mono- and/or diester of orthophosphoric acid, the alkyl groups containing 2 to 13 carbon atoms, the oxyalkylene groups each containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms, and the number of oxyalkylene groups per ester group being from 8 to 18.  Compounds are specified in which the alkyl polyoxy alkylene groups are alkylpolyoxy-propylene and -ethylene groups. The solubility of the phosphoric acid ester in the heavier hydrocarbons is enhanced by the addition of from 50 to 300 wt. per cent, based on the weight of phosphate ester, of a material selected from a group consisting of tertiary alkyl primary amines containing 12 to 24 carbon atoms, and C12 to C22 fatty acid partial esters of aliphatic polyhydric alcohols having from 3 to 8 carbon atoms and 3 to 6 hydroxy groups per molecule, and mixtures thereof.  Various amines and partial esters are specified.  In an example a mixture of phosphates consisting primarily of n-butyl (poly oxypropylene)12 dihydrogen phosphate with a minor amount of n-butyl (polyoxypropylene)12 monohydrogen phosphate is prepared by heating a mixture of 4 wt. per cent of P2O5 and 96 wt. per cent of an ether alcohol of formula <FORM:0829337/III/1> the reaction product consisting of about 50 wt. per cent of unreacted ether alcohol and about 50 wt. per cent of the phosphates specified. The effect of this reaction product when used alone, or with specified amines and/or partial esters as solubilizing agents, upon a mineral lubricating oil, a heating oil, and a gasoline, is described in other examples.  The phosphate material can, however, be separated from the unreacted ether alcohol by extraction and used directly, and compositions are described in which n-butyl (oxypropylene)12 dihydrogen phosphate, and n-octyl (oxyethylene)18 monohydrogen phosphate are thus used.  Other additives are specified, e.g. a copolymer consisting of "Lorol B" (Registered Trade Mark) methacrylate and b -diethyl aminoethyl methacrylate.  A kerosine composition includes this copolymer, a mixture of tertiary alkyl primary amines, and the reaction product referred to above. Morpholine can also be used in leaded gasolines with the phosphoric acid esters.
