Abstract: The device serves to form regularly continuing edges on or in buildings, in particular drip- or water-guided edges in balconies, overhanging components, parapets and plaster or joint-boundary edges. It is characterised by an angle section strip (1) made of plastic which can be fixed to the building or building part when forming a building edge by means of knifing filler, plaster or the like. Said angle section strip comprises a first leg (2), which defines the building edge after the strip has been secured, and a second leg (3) extending transversely with respect to the first leg (2). This second leg (3) forms with the first leg (2) a strip edge (4) and is joined to a coarse-mesh latticework (5) which facilitates the strip fixing by means of knifing filler or plaster. The first leg (2) is also joined to a coarse-mesh latticework (6) extending forwards over the strip edge (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating a surface of an aluminum substrate for a printing plate includes treating the substrate surface with a treatment liquid being circulated, separating and discharging aluminum ions from a portion of the treatment liquid, recovering a sodium hydroxide solution from the treatment liquid, mixing the recovered sodium hydroxide solution with the treatment liquid being circulated, and maintaining a predetermined concentration of aluminum ions in the treatment liquid to be used. A portion of the treatment liquid containing sodium aluminate solution is mixed with aluminum slag containing an amorphous aluminum hydroxide produced at the time of neutralization of a waste acid and a waste alkali produced during surface treatment to thereby supersaturate the sodium aluminate solution, crystallize the aluminum hydroxide, and recover the sodium hydroxide solution to be returned to a liquid control tank to maintain a predetermined concentration of aluminum ions in the treatment liquid. Further, the characteristics of the aluminum slag are changed to be usable as an industrially available aluminum hydroxide. Still further, a hydrolytic reaction is caused in a separated part of the treatment liquid. Preferably, the supersaturated aluminate solution is passed through a filter, so that aluminum hydroxide is crystallized from the sodium aluminate solution, and the sodium hydroxide solution is recovered.

Abstract: Reducing the copper corrosiveness of dihydrocarbyl polysulfides by treating them with an alkali metal-containing or alkaline earth metal-containing substance capable of dissolving elemental sulfur (e.g., sodium hydroxide or sodium sulfide). The process is conducted in a liquid reaction medium composed of a mixture of water and at least one water-soluble alcohol. Experiments have shown that it is possible by use of this process to reduce the copper corrosiveness to a level below that exhibited by a product formed by treating the same initial dihydrocarbyl polysulfide in the same way but in a liquid medium composed solely of water.

Abstract: A vapor phase corrosion inhibitor formulation comprising a finely divided anhydrous molybdate selected from the group consisting of anhydrous sodium molybdate, anhydrous ammonium dimolybdate, and anhydrous amine molybdates having the structural formula:
       
 wherein R₁ is an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms, and wherein R₂ is either hydrogen or an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms with these anhydrous molybdates being provided in admixture with sodium nitrite and benzotriazole. The formulations of the present invention have been found to be particularly desirable as a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor when in contact with the environs of metals susceptible to corrosion including, for example, iron, steel, copper, and alloys such as alloys of iron, copper, and the like. In a preferred embodiment, the amine-molybdate compounds are those amine-molybdates derived from dicyclohexylamine, 2-ethylhexylamine, and cyclohexylamine. The resultant amine-molybdates have vapor pressures which contribute to appropriate protection against corrosion, as well as a continued or ongoing availability of that protection, and when provided in admixture with sodium nitrite and benzotriazole, find particular applicability for extrusion with polyolefin films such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and with such films being capable of forming laminates with metallized second film layers.
