Abstract: A process for increasing the direct esterification reaction rate between a diacid and 1,4-butanediol and for directly esterifying greater than 95% of the acid ends of the diacid by mixing in any order the diacid, the 1,4-butanediol and a catalyst compound selected from organo-titanium, organo-tin, and organo-zirconium compounds, to form a reaction mixture wherein the ratio of diol: diacid is at least 2: 1 and then reacting the reaction mixture at an average temperature ranging between 190°C to 240°C for a period of time no longer than sixty minutes. The same process may be followed substituting ethylene glycol for 1,4-butanediol, provided the catalyst compound is added neat, further provided that the average reaction temperature ranges from 190°C to 200°C, and also provided that the reaction mixture be reacted for a period of time no longer than seventy minutes. The product resulting from this process may be polycondensed or further treated to form a high molecular weight polymer.

Abstract: method of controlling the shrinkage which occurs in the solid state polymeric product, after a polymerizable liquid which comprises at least one monomer is polymerized to obtain a polymeric solid, comprises carrying out the polymerization in presence of a shrinkage-controlling effective amount of a preferably finely-divided crystalline solid possessing zeolitic sorption properties and which contains available apertures of adequate diameter so as to permit at least one species of participating monomer molecules to enter the apertures, or which had been pre-loaded with at least part of said at least one species in the apertures prior to the polymerization. The method may be applied to an automatically generated computer-designed three-dimensional model, obtained by piecewise assembly and polymerization of a polymerizable liquid. The invention further relates to a polymeric solid composition obtained by the method of the invention, such as e.g. the automatically generated model just mentioned, especially when this has been generated within a removable solid environment which prevents the transient stresses of expansion or shrinkage from causing piece-to-piece distortion. The polymerizable liquid including the crystalline solid also forms part of the invention.

Abstract: The system of the present invention provides a data storage system program (18) between a user and a physical memory device (14) which stores file records (20). The data storage system (18) stores records as linked record segments 40/50 that can be randomly located within the memory storage device (14). The segments 40/50 are linked by a next segment address found in a next segment address field 50/51 of a record segment 40/50. When a record needs to be expanded and the current record segment 1000 is not large enough to accommodate the expansion, another record segment 1082 is allocated and used. If variable length record segments 40 are used, only a single record extension is required. However, if fixed length record segments 50 are used, the system allocates sufficient fixed length record segments to store the additional data. When records shrink in size or are deleted, the vacant space becomes available for reuse and the system attempts to remove the vacant space by combining record segments and storing a single segment in available vacant space.

Abstract: A polyvinyl chloride resin pipe (1) is produced for use as an inner lining for repairing or reinforcing sewerage pipes or other existing pipes. An airtight packing (10) is disposed in the resin pipe and between a traction device (8) and a reheating device (9), with the traction device pulling forwards the resin pipe which has been extruded from an extruder (2). An internal pressure is imparted to the resin pipe by introducing compressed air from a forward end thereof so that the resin pipe is depressed flat while being reeled up on a drum (D) in such a state that an internal space is maintained without failure within the resin pipe. In use, a heating medium is fed into the resin pipe from its end so that it rapidly becomes soft uniform as a whole, whereby a defect-free inner lining is formed in the existing pipes.

Abstract: The circuit uses a lowpass filter (6) including capacitors (61, 62) for restricting an output voltage of the lowpass filter, a charge pump circuit (5) for controlling the output voltage of the lowpass filter by charging or discharging the capacitors of the lowpass filter, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (7) controlled by the output voltage of the lowpass filter, a frequency divider (3) operating on the VCO output to supply a comparison signal, a phase comparator (4) signal to output phase error information which indicates a phase lead and a phase lag of the comparison signal with respect to the reference signal. According to the invention, a charge pump control circuit (8) forms control information based on the phase error information when switching a frequency of the output signal of the VCO from a first frequency to a second frequency and supplies the control information to the charge pump circuit. The charge pump circuit (5) charges or discharges the capacitors of the lowpass filter (6) independently of the reference signal based on the control information until the VCO output reaches the second frequency, so as to raise or lower the output voltage of the lowpass filter depending on the charging or discharging. The output signal of the voltage controlled oscillator is used as an output signal of the PLL synthesizer circuit.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for protecting extruded metal powder green bodies (34) during firing are provided. In certain embodiments, one or more green bodies (34) are housed in a non-gas tight chamber (13) located in the hot zone (24) of a cold-wall vacuum/atmosphere furnace (10). Furnace gas, e.g., hydrogen, is supplied to the interior of the chamber (13). The resulting one-way flow out of the chamber (13) protects the green bodies (34) from the backflow of burn-out products, as well as from contaminants arising from the walls and internal components of the furnace (10). In other embodiments, green bodies (34) are housed in individual non-gas tight containers (36). The containers (36) minimize the amount of furnace gas which comes into contact with the green bodies (34) during sintering and thus minimize the level of exposure of the green bodies (34) to oxidative impurities in the furnace gas. When composed of the same material as the green bodies, the containers (36) also perform a getter function.

Abstract: The error correction system of the D2-MAC sound signal decoder receives the sound signal which are compressed and transmitted by the NICAM broadcasting method, perfroms a parity check, and detects the scale factor of each of the sound samples. Then, the system distinguishes the sound samples according to the protection range, and compares the higher 2-bit or 3-bit with respect to the sound samples having the protection range of 6 or 7 among the distinguished sound samples, to detect if errors are generated. Also, The MSB is decided in unit of a predetermined group with respect to compressed and transmitted sound samples, and corrects the value of the MSB of the sound samples having the protection range of 6 or 7 into the value of the MSB decided in unit of the group, to protect the MSB of the sound sample. Then, the MSB-protected sound samples are properly expanded according to the protection range to be restored into the original sound data.
