Filed: 1958-12-22
Abstract: 907,721. Measuring thickness. BRUNA, V. Dec. 22, 1958, No. 41215/58. Class 37. An instrument for measuring the thickness of a non-magnetic layer on a ferromagnetic material by measuring the force required to separate a magnet from. the layer, comprises a spring, a draw rod, and a magnet, the latter being adapted to be brought into contact with the layer by means of a push button and a sleeve. In the embodiment shown a hollow cylindrical body 1 contains a magnet 9 mounted on a draw rod 8 which is attached by a spring 7 to a rod 6. A push button 12 is attached to a sleeve 11 mounted inside the body and the pressure on this button causes the lower edge of the sleeve to engage with a shoulder on the draw rod to force the magnet downwards into contact with the layer to be measured. A pin 5 is mounted on the rod 6 and protrudes through slots in the cylindrical sleeve 11 to engage with an internal thread in the sleeve 4. Rotation of the sleeve 4 moves the pin axially and stretches the spring 7 until the force is sufficient to detach the magnet from the layer, the force required being indicated on the scale 10 which is visible through a window 3. The nose 2 of the instrument is made of transparent material to allow the separation of the magnet from the layer to be readily seen. A locking ring is provided for retaining the setting when making repeated measurements. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 799,768.

Abstract: Paints, nitrocellulose lacquers, moulding powders, pastes and liquids for the moulding of plastics, and synthetic linear aromatic polyesters which are to be formed into fibres are pigmented by the incorporation in the material to be pigmented of perylene derivatives of the formula <FORM:0901694/IV(a)/1> wherein x represents hydrogen, chlorine, nitro, methyl, phenyl-amino, phenylazo, or together with y represents the chain -CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-, y represents hydrogen or methyl when x denotes methyl, represents hydrogen, or, together with z, the chain -CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2- when x denotes hydrogen, represents hydrogen when x denotes chlorine, nitro, phenylamino or phenylazo, or, together with x, represents the chain -CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-, z represents hydrogen or together with y the chain -CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-when x denotes hydrogen, or represents hydrogen when x has another meaning.  The phenyl nucleus may be phenyl, 4-methyl, 4-chlorophenyl, 2.3-tetramethylene phenyl, 3.4-tetramethylenephenyl, 4-nitrophenyl, 4-phenylaminophenyl, 4-phenylazophenyl, or 3.4-dimenthylphenyl.  The dyestuffs are preferably brought into a finely divided form before use, e.g. by precipitation from solution in sulphuric acid of 90-100% concentration by the addition of water, or by grinding in the presence of grinding assistants such as sodium or calcium chloride or calcium carbonate urea phthalic acid or similar materials, followed by mixing the mass with water containing hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide to dissolve the grinding assistant, the residual finely ground dyestuff being then filtered off and washed.  In an example, a mixture of 30 parts of a perylene derivative in which the phenyl nucleus is 4-methylphenyl and 5,000 parts of polyethylene terephthalate are melt spun in nitrogen at 285 DEG C. to form red filaments.  In a second example, 0,1 part of a perylene derivative in which the phenyl nucleus is unsubstituted, mixed with 60 parts of polyvinyl chloride, and 41 parts of dioctyl phthalate is milled at 140 DEG -150 DEG C. and pressed at about 140 DEG C. to form a red sheet.  In a third example, to a mixture of 0,05 part of a perylene derivative in which the phenyl nucleus is 4-chlorophenyl and 100 parts of a polystyrene moulding powder is roller milled at 120 DEG -150 DEG C. and comminuted to a 2-4 mm. particle size for injection moulding.  In a fourth example, a polyethylene moulding powder is similarly pigmented with a perylene derivative in which the phenyl nucleus is 3,4-dimethylphenyl.

Title: Method of producing carbonized material
IPC: D01F9/17
Filed: 1965-10-04
Abstract: A carbonized fibre is made by heating an alkali-lignin, thiolignin or ligninsulphonate fibre from 400 DEG  C. to a temperature at which the fibre becomes substantially graphite.  The fibre can be preheated at 50-400 DEG  C. in an atmosphere comprising oxygen or ozone or at 100-400 DEG  C. in a closed vessel.  After preheating the fibre can be heated at 400-2500 DEG  C. in an inert gas e.g. Ar, N2 or CO2. The fibre can be heated from room temperature or the preheating temperature at a rate less than 50 DEG  C/minimum.  Polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylonitrile or viscose can be incorporated in the lignin fibre.  The carbon fibre can be activated by heating at 600-1000 DEG  C. in the presence of a stream of gas which causes the carbonized material to be in active form. Suitable activating gases are air, oxygen or steam used in the amount 100-2000 cc. (STP)/gm. of fibre. Alternatively an actuating agent, e.g. ZnCl2 or S, or H2SO4, NaOH or KOH can be introduced into the melt or solution from which the fibre is spun.  The fibre can be made by melt spinning, dry spinning or wet spinning.
