Abstract: The present invention uses a conversion table a part of which is duplexed in order to directly convert input M-bit data into an N-bit code without using a margin bit. This conversion table comprises first and second sub-tables each including a plurality of code groups, and these code groups contain different codes to the same input data. In the second sub-table, a part of the first sub-table obtaining by allocating different codes to the data ranging from the first input data to the second input data of the sub-table is duplexed. The set of the codes of the duplexed portion of the conversion table is so constituted as to take a digital sum variation of opposite signs, and codes are sequentially allocated to the input data from the code having the greater absolute value of the digital sum variation. In this way, the present invention can appropriately suppress low frequency components of modulation signals.

Abstract: Saline solutions useful in treating contact lenses are described. Unlike prior saline solutions used for similar purposes, the present solutions do not contain conventional antimicrobial agents which are potentially toxic to ocular tissues. Rather, the solutions contain a combination of a borate-polyol complex, one or more anionic or nonionic surfactants, and a low molecular weight amino acid (e.g., glycine). It has been found that this combination effectively preserves the saline solutions from antimicrobial contamination, is relatively nontoxic to ocular tissues, and is compatible with oxidizing agents used in certain contact lens disinfecting systems. The combination also facilitates the cleaning of contact lenses.

Abstract: An image is printed on a medium by means of a computer-driven printer (6) using an ink composition comprising heat-activated dye solids, without activating the dye solids during the process of printing onto the medium. The image is transferred from the medium to the object (8) on which the image is to permanently appear by applying heat and pressure to the medium to activate the dye and transfer the image to the object (8). The liquid form of the ink composition uses a liquid carrier and an emulsifying enforcing agent which has an affinity for the dye. The emulsifying enforcing agent shields the heat-activated dye both prior to, and during, the printing process.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'assemblage de conducteurs métalliques enrobés, ainsi que l'application de ce procédé pour la production de micro-assemblages de très haute densité et de macro-assemblages. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que les surfaces à assembler sont revêtues de couches de métal ou d'alliage de brasage superposées. Les zones de contact à assembler sont chauffées pendant une courte période jusqu'à ce qu'elles atteignent la température de fusion transitoire des couches de base et des couches supérieures. Il est essentiel que la couche de base et la couche supérieure ne produisent pas entre elles des composés intermétalliques et que l'interface de contact entre elles soit aussi métallique que possible. Ce type de contact peut être obtenu par exemple par dépôt chimique ou électrochimique. De plus, lorsque la couche supérieure, par exemple le bismuth, est capable de protéger la couche de base, l'assemblage peut être réalisé dans une atmosphère normale et sans flux. Ce procédé peut également être appliqué aussi bien à la fabrication de micro-assemblages de haute densité qu'à l'assemblage de zones de contact relativement étendues, ce qui réduit le nombre d'étapes dans l'assemblage des composants électroniques. Un mince film polymère peut être placé entre les plots de contact des composants et les métallisations de substrats contenant des particules de brasage compatibles avec les couches de base des zones de contact. Lorsque la zone de contact est chauffée sous une pression extérieure, des micro-assemblages se forment localement car les particules de brasage et la couche de base fondent de façon transitoire. Le film polymère favorise la formation de micro-assemblages locaux et protège les brasures de l'oxygène et de l'humidité provenant de l'extérieur. Ce procédé d'assemblage est facile à utiliser. Il ne requiert pas l'application de flux, et par conséquent il n'est pas nécessaire de nettoyer les brasures. En outre, ce procédé respecte l'environnement, car il s'effectue sans recours au plomb.

Abstract: A two-stage method for the preparation of polyol fatty acid polyesters is provided. The resulting polyol fatty acid polyesters are very lightly colored ( i.e. , colorless to slightly yellow) and have a high degree of substitution with fatty acid groups. The first stage of this two-stage method is a solvent-based esterification reaction; the second stage is an essentially solvent-free esterification reaction. In the first stage, a polyol in a solvent ( e.g. , sucrose in dimethylsulfoxide)) is reacted with fatty acid lower alkyl esters at relatively low temperatures using an alkaline salt catalyst. After the desired degree of esterification is obtained, the resulting partially-esterified polyol fatty acid polyesters and the solvent-containing phase are separated. The separated partially-esterified polyol fatty acid polyesters are further esterified with the same or different fatty acid lower alkyl esters in a second stage with an alkaline salt catalyst using essentially solvent-free, high temperature conditions whereby the degree of substitution is significantly increased. Most of the color bodies and other contaminants capable of producing color are removed with the solvent in the first stage and, therefore, are not present during the higher temperature reaction conditions of the second stage. The resulting polyol fatty acid polyesters, and in particular the sucrose fatty acid polyesters, are especially useful as fat substitutes in food applications and products.
