Title: Improved perfluorocarbons for biological gas exchange and method
Inventor: CLARK LELAND C
IPC: A61P43/00
Filed: 1996-11-22
Abstract: Perfluorotetramethylcyclohexane shows improved properties for use in biological gas exchange, both as a blood substitute and as perfluorocarbon for intra-pulmonary applications. The material has an adequately low vapor pressure to completely avoid causing hyperinflated lung damage and to increase the interval between required applications. However, the compound has a sufficiently high vapor pressure to produce acceptably brief residence time within the body. A method has been developed for using this novel compound to accelerate the exhalation of very low vapor pressure compounds such as perfluorophenanthrene from the lungs. The addition of perfluorotetramethylcyclohexane, along with perfluorophenanthrene, greatly increases the rate at which the perfluorophenanthrene is exhaled.
Patent AU-1131288-A (AU)
Title: A method for making and a slow release composition for abating acid water formation
Inventor: SOBEK ANDREW A
IPC: A01N25/10
Filed: 1988-02-04
Abstract: Various chemolithotrophic bacteria such as Thiobacillus ferrooxidans by direct or indirect mechanisms catalyze the oxidation of metal sulfides and produce acid, i.e. suilfuric acid and soluble metal salts at a much faster rate than chemical oxidation. Elimination of such bacteria would inhibit the formation of the acid. The natural production of such acids is particularly troublesome in mines e.g. coal mines, since acid water is produced which is damaging to the environment. An effective method of abating or eliminating such acid water production is to apply a bactericide such as a biodegradable organic surfactant which at low pH values are bactericides and hence inhibit the bacteria from catalyzing the metal sulfides. The affected acid water site can thus be treated with the surfactant which provides a temporary or short term result usually for a few months. A long term solution, that is 1 year to several years, is provided through the use of a slow release composition of the present invention in which a heterogeneous matrix contains a thermoplastic domain and an organic surfactant domain. A suitable porosity is created when proper amounts of surfactant are utilized so that a long term slow release composition is formed. A method of making the heterogeneous matrix or slow release composition involves the dry blending of a thermoplastic compound and various processing aids, subsequently adding a bactericide thereto and mixing under shear and heat the resulting molten composition. A suitable slow release article can be formed such as pellets.

Title: Handling of forwarded calls
Inventor: VERKAMA MARKKU
IPC: H04M3/54
Filed: 1998-12-11
Abstract: A mobile communication system that proposes a new charging principle, according to which the roaming leg is paid entirely by the party who forwards the call to a mobile subscriber. In an exemplary embodiment, the call is first routed to the exchange of subscriber B, who has forwarded his calls. After determining that the call is to be forwarded to a mobile subscriber C, the exchange routes the call to the gateway mobile switching center (GMSC) capable of making interrogations to the home location register of subscriber C. When the charging record for the call is generated, the called subscriber B is charged for the leg between the GMSC and subscriber C. Thus, subscriber C does not have to pay for calls addressed to subscriber B. To minimize the call costs to subscriber B, as direct a route as possible is preferably used on the leg between the GMSC and subscriber C.

Title: Longitudinal steering linkage for truck with interaxle yokes
Inventor: SMITH ROY E
IPC: B61F5/44
Filed: 1988-07-27
Abstract: This invention applies the linkage connected between the interaxle yokes(16,18) of a truck and a railroad vehicle car body so as to create radially steered alignment of wheelsets(12,14) on circular curves without reference to the truck frame. Forces exchanged between the wheelsets and the car body are essentially longitudinal and no significant lateral forces are created on the truck frame or car body from the steering action. The steering linkage (34,40,46) utilizes the longitudinal component of relative motion of a point on the car body with reference to the vehicle truck to cause relative pivotal movement of the interaxle yokes thereby guiding the wheelsets to a radial alignment. Radial alignment is achieved by suitable proportioning of the links of the mechanism.

Filed: 2000-01-28
Abstract: Disclosed are catalyst preparation olefin polymerization processes with the recycling of a co-catalyst. According to the olefin polymerization process activated single-site catalysts are prepared by contacting supported single-site pre-catalyst with an organic solvent containing co-catalyst. The activated single-site catalysts are separated from co-catalysts dissolved in an organic solvent and the olefin polymerization is conducted using the separated single-site catalysts with one or more olefinic monomers. The separated co-catalysts is reused by recycling the organic solvent containing the separated co-catalysts and contacting them with the supported single-site pre-catalysts. The olefin polymerization process of the present invention enables recycling expensive co-catalyst for subsequent olefin polymerization and accordingly the total amount of co-catalyst required can be significantly reduced.
