Abstract: A process for cutting a solid or foamed material block, esp. polystyrene foam, uses equipment with long cutting tools, esp. electrically heated wires, clamped to frames(10.1,10.2) supported in a rigid framework (11) of the cutting equipment and moved backwards and forwards by a drive system. Two parallel cutting frames(10.1,10.2) are employed and are connected by springs (9) to the rigid part (11) along the axis of the cutting equipment. One cutting frame (10.1) has an eccentric drive (15) with an axis (16) perpendicular to the direction (14) of movement of the cutting tools and the other cutting frame (10.2) is driven by the eccentric drive (15) via one or more elastic couplings (22). The operating parameters, i.e. eccentric stroke (a), stroke frequency, spring (9) rate, elastic coupling (22) rate and inertia of the cutting frames (10.1,10.2) are matched to each other to cancel out or greatly reduce vibration transfer to the rigid framework (11) or the equipment base.   The process equipment is also claimed.

Abstract: A procedure for making an insulator with at least one component coated with electrically insulating material has a primer solution deposited on that component and dried. The insulating material is deposited on the primer coat but before this happens, there are certain steps. First, a fluorescent material in the primer solution is released. Then the coating is irradiated with a light source. Finally the badly coated spots on the component are recognised and extra primer is deposited there. The light source is a UV one. Enough fluorescent material in the primer is released as to saturate it and during drying, the fluorescent material precipitates.

Abstract: A process for rejecting reactor byproduct from the polymerization reactor in an olefins polymerization process wherein reactor waste gas stream(s) comprising unreacted monomers, reactor byproduct and light components are treated in an absorption process to additionally recover the monomers. The absorption process comprises contacting the reactor waste gas stream(s) with an absorption solvent in an absorption zone to produce a gas stream comprising the light components, and a liquid stream comprising the absorption solvent, absorbed reactor byproduct and absorbed monomers. The liquid stream is fractionated in a distillation column to produce a distillation column bottoms stream that is the absorption solvent which is conveyed to the absorption zone, and an overhead stream comprising the monomers and reactor byproduct which is further fractionated in a splitter column to reject the reactor byproduct as a bottoms stream. The recovered monomers from the splitter overhead can be conveyed to the reactor. In a preferred embodiment, the absorption solvent consists essentially of components derived from the reactor waste gas stream(s) so that no external solvent is required.

Abstract: An endodontic apparatus for the restoration of a dead or severely decayed tooth using induced fluorescence spectroscopy. A root canal probe having an optical fiber through its center transmits excitation light into the tooth's root canal. The excitation light induces the tissue within the root canal to fluoresce. The fluorescent light is collected by the optical fiber and transmitted back to a sensor that generates electrical signals indicative of the intensity of light within predetermined wavelength bands. The electrical signals are processed to identify the tissues within the root canal. The probe may include a slightly conical metal surface having flutes for shaving and removing dentin from within the root canal. Using the fluorescent emission properties of the tissues of components of a tooth, the entrance of the root canal is located. The root canal is cleaned and shaped and the apex of the root canal located using the difference between the fluorescence spectrum of the apex and the root canal. The root canal is sealed and filled by a light cure restorative delivered into the root canal through a tube. The light cure restorative is activated by light transmitted into the root canal by an optical fiber. The light activation and polymerization of the light cure restorative can be controlled by monitoring the intensity of the restorative's fluorescence spectrum.

Abstract: The method involves attaching outer layers (13) to a cellular core made from expanded strips of material by applying adhesive to the edges of the strips. The outer layers are then pressed against them. Prior to expansion of the inner core two lengthwise groves (30) are made in its lateral edges, and these are used to guide the core during expansion. The adhesive is applied to the edges of the core strips before they are expanded, and once they are expanded the outer layers are applied to the adhesive-coated surfaces. After application of the outer layers the panels pass through pressing section (40), where the required pressure is applied to the panels' outer surfaces.
