Patent CA-2218381-A1 (CA)
Title: Compositions having ethylenic backbone and benzylic, allylic, or ether-containing side-chains, oxygen scavenging compositions containing same, and process for making these compositions by esterification or transesterification of a polymer melt
Inventor: CHING TA YEN
IPC: B65D65/38
Filed: 1996-04-29
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for esterifying and/or transesterifying a polymer having a polyethylenic backbone and pendant acid and/or ester moieties comprising contacting a melt of the polymer with a transesterifying compound so that the polymer undergoes esterification and/or transesterification but not alcoholysis. The esterified or transesterified polymer also has pendant ester moieties which differ in kind and/or number from the unreacted polymer. In one embodiment, the process also comprises adding an amount of a transition metal salt that is effective to promote oxygen scavenging. Also in a further embodiment, the process comprises irridiating the transesterified polymer with actinic radiation to reduce the induction period before oxygen scavenging commences. Also disclosed are compositions comprising a component which comprises an ethylenic or polyethylenic backbone and a pendant or terminal moiety comprising a benzylic, allylic, or ether-containing radical. The invention also embodies new polyethylenic oxygen scavenging compositions comprising a transition-metal salt and the above component. Methods of making the compositions, and methods and compositions using the ethylenic or polyethylenic compositions, are disclosed.

Filed: 1996-12-13
Abstract: A method for the use of material containing carbon as a packing material, anode mass or collar mass in connection with the electrolytic production of aluminium. The material is formed by granulating a mass which contains carbon particles and a binder. The carbon particles may comprise a carbon material which has been returned from the aluminium production process. The binder may comprise tar which is collected in connection with burning anodes. The carbon particles may comprise butt filter dust and can contain contaminants such as sodium (Na) and fluorine (F). By adding a powder/dust which contains silicon oxide (SiO2) to the mass, the contaminants can be rendered harmless. The added material can be formed by crushing and grinding used cassette stone (chamotte) to dust. The present invention makes possible comprehensive reuse of several waste products of the electrolytic production of aluminium.

IPC: C10G1/10
Filed: 1997-04-04
Abstract: A thermolysis process for the production of volatiles for an external combustor (203) or liquefaction of biomass solids in which specific and previously unrecognized conditions are employed. The thermolysis is carried out in a single deep fluidized bed (211) of inert material operating at near atmospheric pressure, relatively low temperature, long solids and gas residence times and moderate heating rates. The distribution of the thermolysis products among solid (char) and gases under these conditions is unique. The product effluent can be either quenched to produce a high liquid yield in addition to a low char yield or the volatile effluent can be used in either the same combustor (203) or a second combustor (310) to produce heat energy a particularly high efficiency system. In using a quencher (403), the quenched liquid is of similar composition to those obtained by so called fast pyrolysis procees of the prior art. The specified conditions are such as to allow production of liquids in high yields in an energy efficient manner. The low severity of the conditions in comparison with previous approaches allows simplified process design and scale-up leading to lower capital and operating costs as well as easier control.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for cryopreserving a biological sample, including gradually or stepwise loading the sample with permeating protectant by contacting the sample with solutions including the protectant and a non-permeating co-solute that limits the amount of protectant that penetrates into cells of the biological specimen. The method further includes the gradual or step of unloading (rehydration) of the sample by contacting the sample with one ore more rehydration solutions having progressively lower concentrations of both the protectant and co-solute, such that the protectant is removed from the cells of the sample. Concentration of the co-solute during loading and unloading should be at maximum value that still does not damage the sample at room and subzero temperatures.
