Title: Foamed starch compositions, articles and methods
Inventor: ANDERSEN PER JUST
IPC: C08L3/00
Filed: 1995-09-12
Granted: 1999-03-25
Abstract: Articles, particularly containers and packaging materials, having a starch-bound cellular matrix reinforced with substantially uniformly dispersed fibers and methods for manufacturing the articles. High strength articles that have adequate flexibility and toughness immediately or very shortly after being demolded without the need for subsequent conditioning are molded from compositions having a starch-based binder and fibers that are uniformly dispersed by means of a high yield stress fluid fraction within the starch-based composition. In a two-step mixing process, a preblended mixture is formed by gelating a portion of the starch-based binder or other thickening agent in water to form a liquid phase having high yield stress into which the fibers are substantially uniformly dispersed. At least some of the fibers preferably have an average length of at least about 2 mm and an aspect ratio of at least about 25:1. The remaining starch-based binder, water, and other desired admixtures, such as mold-release agents, inorganic fillers, rheology-modifying agents, plasticizers, integral coating or sealing materials, and dispersants, are added to the preblended mixture to form a moldable starch-based composition, which is molded between heated molds to produce form-stable articles having a desired shape and a selectively controlled foamed structural matrix. Such articles can replace articles presently made from conventional materials like paper, paperboard, polystyrene, plastic, or other organic-based materials and have especial utility in the mass-production of containers, particularly food and beverage containers. <IMAGE>

Title: Monitoring device for a rubbish dump and process for locating leaks
Inventor: JAX PETER
IPC: G01M3/02
Filed: 1993-04-21
Granted: 1996-06-20
Abstract: The monitoring assembly for a landfill or garbage dump comprises two sensor hoses, which are laid on both sides of a sealing liner parallel to each other. A transport medium can flow through the sensor hoses in the same or in opposite directions. First and second indicator signals are determined with the aid of at least one detector. The indicator signals indicate the presence of a pollutant in the transport medium and thus in the relevant sensor hose. These signals are logically combined with each other, with regard to location, preferably subtracted from each other. The resulting signal distinctly shows an extreme value in its curve as soon as a leak is present in the sealing liner. The position can be easily determined from that graphic representation.

Title: Microstrip to waveguide coupling
Inventor: JONG ROELOF PIETER DE
IPC: H01P5/107
Filed: 1985-04-24
Granted: 1988-04-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a receiving arrangement 4-1 for SHF signals, comprising a rectangular waveguide filter 5 formed from resonators 10-1 to 10-4 arranged in cascade, a SHF signal arrangement 6 containing a microstrip circuit and a microstrip to waveguide filter transition connection to this circuit.Generally, such a receiving arrangement is not suitable for use in radiators comprising a partly shown polarization converter 3 with two such receiving arrangement 4-1 each receiving one of two mutually orthogonally polarized signals. When the prior art receiving arrangements are used in these radiators, the channel separation is inadequate.According to the invention, an adequate channel separation is obtained by providing the microstrip to waveguide filter transition in the waveguide filter and matching the filter 5 thereto. As a result thereof, the receiving arrangement 4-1 becomes more compact and has a very low reflection and, in addition, it is no longer necessary to adjust the transition to the waveguide filter 5.Preferably, dimensioning is realized by the choice of the size in the axial direction of the end resonator 10-4 and/or the choice of the dimensions of the coupling aperture which connects the end resonator 10-4 to the adjacent resonator 10-3.
