Abstract: A composition and method for applying an electrically conductive coating to an initially electrically nonconductive surface, such as a printed wiring board having through holes is disclosed. The method is carried out by applying a composition of electrically conductive carbon particles, a second conductive material, a water dispersible binding agent, and an aqueous dispersing medium to a nonconductive substrate to form a substantially continuous, electrically conductive coating. Enough of the carbon particles are present to provide an electrically conductive coating when the composition is applied to the substrate. Enough of the second conductive material is present to provide an improved electrically conductive coating when the composition is applied to the substrate. The resulting coating carbon coating has an improved conductivity over prior through hole coating compositions and processes and is capable of being exposed to molten solder without resulting in the formation of blowholes.

Abstract: Moist vegetable biomass (21) is fed (22, 24) to a mixing zone (26) equipped with stirring means (27) of a conditioning vessel (25). Aqueous juice (30) recycled (40) from a subsequent step (39) is also fed (29) to the mixing zone (26). The mixture is stirred while any denser material is allowed to sink to a settling zone (28) located below the mixing zone (26) to eventually be disposed of (31). The mixture is fed (32) to a rotary comminutor (33) whose operation produces a slurry that is fed (34) to a separator (35) for partitioning into aqueous juice (36) and mush (37). The mush is removed (38). The aqueous juice is divided (39) into major (40) and minor (41) portions whose ratio provides for balance between water entering and leaving the process, considering that the major portion (40) is recycled to the mixing (26) zone and the minor portion (41) removed. Preferably, the ratio is greater than about 4:1. Preferably, the comminutor has an effective shearing gap whose width is larger than 1 mm. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method for group manufacturing of pyroelectric sensors by forming a thin pyroelectric layer on the upper side of a silicon wafer, where each sensor comprises several pixels (4) and each pixel is defined by an upper electrode (6) situated on the face side and a lower electrode on the rear side of the layer, includes the following steps: (a) The formation of electrical connections in the form of strip conductors (28,30) between the upper electrodes and a contact pad (32), and the formation of resistances (36) connected in series with the upper electrodes, as a protection against a short-circuit. (b) The electric polarization of the pyroelectric layer by applying a voltage between the contact pad (32) of upper electrodes and the lower electrodes. (c) The electrical insulation of upper and/or lower electrodes of one or more sensors by cutting the strip conductors (28) along dotted lines (44) and separating sensors, so that each pixel can deliver an elementary electrical signal. The lower electrodes are also in the form of proper electrodes that are mutually connected by strip conductors (24) and to a contact pad (26). The upper and lower electrical connections present intersections (40) when projected onto the plane of wafer, and the lower connections are laid out so that the intersections are between the electrodes and the resistances. The resistances and electrical connections are laid out on the thin layer substantially horizontal on the upper side of wafer. In the second embodiment, the first electrical connections are formed in part by strip conductors on the lower side of wafer and feedthroughs, and the resistances are associated at least in part at the level of feedthroughs. The sensors are formed each by a two-dimensional array of pixels. The contact pads (38) connect the electrodes to the resistances, and the pads are the contacts of pixels in functioning when the resistances are inactive. The values of resistances are substantially equal and define an impedance of pixels allowing a uniform deposition of an absorption layer of e.g. platinum black on the pixels by electrochemical method.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de valorisation des charges d'hydrocarbures lourds par utilisation d'un réacteur de pyrolyse à temps de séjour limité fonctionnant dans des conditions permettant le craquage et la valorisation chimique des charges. Ce procédé consiste à préparer une charge en partie valorisée présentant une viscosité réduite et une densité API supérieure. Ce procédé permet d'éliminer sélectivement les métaux, les sels, l'eau et l'azote de la charge, et à la fois de maximiser le rendement du produit liquide et de minimiser la production de coke et de gaz. Par ailleurs, ce procédé permet de réduire la viscosité de la charge pour le transport par pipeline, si on le souhaite, de la charge valorisée avec très peu ou sans adjonction de diluants. Ce procédé de valorisation d'une charge d'hydrocarbure consiste à introduire un caloporteur particulaire dans un réacteur à circulation ascendante, à introduire la charge d'hydrocarbures lourds dans le réacteur à circulation ascendante à un emplacement situé au-dessus du caloporteur particulaire de façon que le rapport de chargement du caloporteur particulaire soit compris entre 15:1 et 200:1 environ, ce qui permet une interaction entre la charge d'hydrocarbures lourds et le caloporteur avec un temps de séjour inférieur à 1 seconde environ, pour produire un flux, à séparer le flux du caloporteur particulaire, à régénérer le caloporteur particulaire et à récupérer un produit gazeux et liquide à partir du flux. La présente invention concerne également les produits obtenus selon ce procédé.
