Abstract: It has been discovered that certain nitrogen-containing thiols other than mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) perform equivalently as accelerators in preparing asphalt polymer compositions. Typically, the crosslinker in these compositions is sulfur. Nitrogen-containing thiols containing at least one functional group -N-(SH)- have been found to be useful alternate accelerators along with activators such as zinc oxides. Particular nitrogen-containing thiols include, but are not necessarily limited to, 2-mercaptobenzoxazole (MBO), 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (MMTD), and combinations thereof.

Abstract: A supporting part(19) of the tile is injection molded(11,15) onto the surface of a prefabricated plate-like upper part(18) which has been preheated(16) to a point above room temperature. The upper part(18) is heated in a tool half(15) of an injection molding tool. Tool cavity dimensions are oversize compared with the outer dimensions of the initially cold upper part. Sensors(20) located near each edge of the cavity produce a signal when the warmed and expanding upper part makes contact with an edge. When all sensors have emitted a signal the heating is halted and plastic is injected to form the supporting part(19). Following the injection stage the tile is removed from the tool and cooled in a press. The supporting part comprises a solid layer adjacent to the upper layer and an open honeycomb structure. Independent claims are included for: a) the process equipment including a heater(16), preferably an infra-red heater, which can be inserted into an open molding tool(11,15) on an injection molding machine and is directed at the tool half(15) having a cavity with dimensions greater than the prefabricated upper part(18) which it holds during heating; b) a plastic tile produced by the process which has a supporting part(19) with edges having projecting connectors and recessed cut-outs. Connectors and cut-outs interlock with each other to connect adjacent tiles and have noses and grooves to prevent disengagement in the tile thickness direction.

Abstract: A control section (90) sets the transfer bias level applied between a transfer roller (61) and a photosensitive drum (62) in the printer to a "ghost generation level." The control section (90) forms a test pattern on the recording medium by applying a transfer bias set to the ghost generation level in order to transfer a toner image onto the recording medium. A density sensor (71) detects the density of the toner image deposited in a non-image-forming region when the test pattern is formed. The control section (90) estimates a transfer bias level, at which ghosts will not occur, based on the ghost generation level and the density level of the toner image in the non-image-forming region, and sets this estimated value as the transfer bias level for forming images. <IMAGE>
