Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production de solutions d'éther de cellulose aqueuses de basse viscosité. L'objectif de l'invention est de permettre une réduction du poids moléculaire de solutions d'éther de cellulose qui nécessite les temps de réaction les plus petits possible pour une consommation d'énergie faible, ainsi qu'un minimum des produits chimiques additionnels nécessaires. Selon cette invention, cette réduction du poids moléculaire se fait par exposition de la solution d'éther de cellulose à l'effet d'un rayonnement haute fréquence compris dans la plage 300-300000 MHz, la solution d'éther de cellulose se réchauffant pour atteindre une température comprise dans la plage 60-150 °C. Après refroidissement, la solution d'éther de cellulose est neutralisée de façon connue en soi. Les éthers de cellulose pouvant être obtenus à partir de telles solutions d'éther de cellulose de poids moléculaire réduit trouvent, entre autres, des applications dans la production d'unités dosées pharmaceutiques, par exemple de cachets.

Abstract: A frequency-stabilized laser source that is adapted for use as a frequency standard. The frequency of the laser source is locked and the laser beam delivered by the laser source on a transition of an absorber chemical element. The technique combines both operation with saturated absorption and synchronous detection, based on modulating said transition being saturated by the beam passing through the absorber chemical element. This produces a single frequency laser beam whose output frequency is stationary. The frequency is not continuously modulated and is more precise than that which would be obtained operating with single-pass absorption only. The laser source is thus adapted for making a frequency standard.
