Patent EP-1495171-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LOCKWOOD FRANCES E
IPC: C10M141/00
Filed: 2002-12-06
Abstract: The introduction of nanotubes in a liquid provides a means for changing the physical and/or chemical properties of the liquid. Improvements in heat transfer, electrical properties, viscosity, and lubricity can be realized upon dispersion of nanotubes in liquids; however, nanotubes behave like hydrophobic particles and tend to clump together in liquids. Methods of preparing stable dispersions of nanotubes are described and surfactants/dispersants are identified which can disperse carbon nanotubes in aqueous and petroleum liquid medium. The appropriate dispersant is chosen for the carbon nanotube and the water or oil based medium and the dispersant is dissolved into the liquid medium to form a solution. The carbon nanotube is added to the dispersant containing the solution with agitation, ultrasonication, and/or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A laminating apparatus for laminating an object to be laminated
includes an upper chamber and a lower chamber which are partitioned by a
diaphragm, a heater board provided in the lower chamber, and a diaphragm
capable of freely expanding for pressurizing the object to be laminated
mounted on the heater board, in which the diaphragm is constituted of butyl
rubber. The composition of the butyl rubber includes, for example, 100 to 0
parts by weight of halogenated butyl, 0 to 100 parts by weight of regular
butyl, 1 to 5 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, 5 to 100 parts by weight of
carbon black, 0 to 20 parts by weight of paraffin oil, 1 to 5 parts by weight of
zinc oxide, 1 to 20 parts by weight of resin vulcanizing agent, and 0 to 10
parts by weight of processing aid. According to the present invention, the
lifetime of the diaphragm is extended, and laminated objects can be produced
at a low cost.

IPC: H04J11/00
Filed: 2003-01-23
Abstract: A wired and wireless communication method, and more particularly a
method and apparatus for reducing a PAPR (Peak to Average Power Ratio) in an
OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system. A transmitter of
the OFDM system designates, as a coset leader, a vector capable of minimizing a
PAPR in a general standard array of (n, k) linear block codes and transmits a
sequence having a minimum PAPR by adding each coset leader to an n-bit
codeword corresponding to k-bit information and producing U (≤ 2 n-k ) number of
vectors. Then, a receiver of the OFDM system can easily recover an original
transmission signal using a syndrome of a received vector if the receiver identifies
information of the syndrome and the coset leader. Subsequently, the OFDM
system can be designed irrespective of the number of carriers, i.e., N, and enhance
the system's performance by increasing a value of U. Moreover, the OFDM
system different from the conventional SLM (Selective Mapping) system does not
have to transmit, to the receiver, information indicating which signal has been
selected.
