Abstract: An absorbent article such as a sanitary napkin, having an improved topsheet that provides improved skin comfort as well as superior fluid handling characteristics. Such absorbent articles comprise a main body portion preferably comprising a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, and an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet. The main body portion has longitudinal edges and lateral edges. The topsheet has a central zone and a pair of end zones extending laterally outwardly from and contiguous with the central zone. The topsheet comprises an nonwoven outer layer and an apertured thermoplastic film layer. The nonwoven outer layer has an opening positioned in the central zone. The apertured thermoplastic film layer is positioned beneath the nonwoven outer layer so that the apertured thermoplastic film layer and the nonwoven outer layer covers the end zones while the apertured thermoplastic film layer is exposed through the opening of the nonwoven outer layer in the central zone.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of decorations which are colour-stable in porcelain firing (glost firing), and to a pigment composition suitable for this purpose. Most pigments are not sufficiently colour-stable in porcelain firing. There is a need for increasing the colour stability of pigments. Inclusion pigments based on sulphides and selenides of heavy metals in an oxide shell or silicate shell, in particular ZrSiO4, give more colour-stable decorations in porcelain firing, if colour-stabilising auxiliaries from the series of Zn compounds, in particular ZnO or zinc-containing glass frits, or compounds of cerium(III) or cerium(IV), especially CeO2, are employed as colour-stabilising auxiliaries in the decoration layer and/or glaze layer. The quantity employed in the decorative layer is, in the case of ZnO and CeO2, in general 5 to 50% by weight, relative to the inclusion pigment. In addition to an inclusion pigment, the pigment composition according to the invention also contains at least one of the said colour-stabilising auxiliaries.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coupling device for releasably connecting couplable pipe sockets (2, 4), of which one has a couplable tubular end (3) which is surrounded with radial spacing by a pipe projection (6), and a locking element (9) is arranged in the annular space (7) formed between the pipe projection and the tubular end, which locking element has an unlocking button (10) and a catch member (11) which is held by spring force in a counter-catch (12) provided on the other pipe socket. A simple assembly of the locking element is achieved in that at least one spring lug is connected to the locking element, which spring lug is disposed transversely to the longitudinal axis of the tubular end and is supported by its free end on a counter-support provided on the inside wall of the pipe projection, the position of this counter-support being selected in respect of the length of the spring lug such that a curvature of the spring lug results, which brings about the spring tension. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A liquid crystal device is constituted by disposing a chiral smectic liquid crystal between a pair of substrates each provided with an electrode and a uniaxial alignment film. The chiral smectic liquid crystal is placed in such a quasi-smectic A alignment state that the liquid crystal molecules will have a single average molecular axis under no electric field application on a lower temperature side within chiral smectic C phase range, wherein the single average molecular axis can be confirmed as a position providing the darkest state when observed through cross nicol polarizers. Such a quasi-smectic A alignment state is effective in providing a liquid crystal device (or display apparatus) having an improved shock resistance and a good low-temperature storage properties.
