Abstract: An RF phase and/or amplitude control device (40) has a
digitally controlled attenuator (41) at it input to adjust the
overall output level of the output. The device includes an in-phase
power divider (43) for splitting up the input signals over
two paths (I and Q). The power divided signals in the two paths
are further power divided and shifted in relative phase at 180°
hybrids (49 and 50). The power divided and phases shifted signals
in each path I and Q are selectively switched using switches (51
and 53). The selected and switched output is quadrative combined

Abstract: Vinylidene olefin can be formed in good yield and high selectivity in much shorter reaction periods than found critical heretofore. The process involves dimerizing vinyl olefin with at least one trialkylaluminum compound as the sole catalyst component charged to the reaction vessel. These materials are charged to the reactor so that it contains in the range of 0.001 to 0.5 mol of trialkylaluminum per mol of the initial vinyl olefin. The reaction is performed at a temperature in the range of 100° to 200°C for a period of time sufficient to convert 10 to 99% by weight of the initial vinyl olefin to a different product and form a product mixture with at least 80 wt % vinylidene dimer selectivity.
