Abstract: A method and apparatus for impregnating a porous substrate
with a solids-bearing saturant first introduces the saturant into the substrate
from a first side, and then introduces a displacement material into the
substrate from the first side. This displacement material forces at least some
of the saturant in the substrate farther into the substrate, away from the first
side. A wide variety of devices can be used for introducing the saturant and
the displacement material into the substrate, including pressure saturators,
converging chamber pressure saturators, roller coaters, blade coaters, and
the like. By pushing the saturant away from the first side with the
displacement material, the first side can be made more suitable for further
processing such as adhesive bonding.

Abstract: A foamed, non-crosslinked resin particle having a
bulk density of not greater than 0.045 g/cm 3  and an average
cell diameter of at least 200 pm. The non-crosslinked resin
includes a polypropylene resin to which a vinyl comonomer is
graft-polymerized in such an amount that the weight ratio of
the polypropylene resin to the grafted polymer of the vinyl
comonomer is in the range of 97:3 to 65:35. The foamed
resin particles are produced by grafting a vinyl comonomer
to polypropylene resin particles at a temperature of less
than 90°C in the presence of a specific radical
polymerization initiator to obtain modified polypropylene
resin particles and, then, expanding the modified
polypropylene resin particles. The initiator used requires
a temperature of not higher than 70°C for obtaining a half

Abstract: An optical planar waveguide notch filter employs a waveguide with
first, second and third regions. The first and third regions have structures for
propagating an optical signal in a first transmission mode. The second region is
located between the first and third regions and has a structure in which an
optical signal propagates in the first transmission mode as well as at least one
other higher order transmission mode. The structure of the second region further
couples a particular wavelength band of the signal propagating in the first
transmission mode to at least one of the other transmission modes. This
coupling causes an attenuation of energy of such bandwidth in the signal
propagating in the first transmission mode. As a result, the signal propagating
from the second region to the third region in the first transmission mode is a
notch filtered signal possessing an attenuation at the particular wavelength
band.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging suite is sheathed with plates ( 32, 34, 36 ) of iron or other
ferrous material. The plates define projections ( 42, 44 ) in alignment with each other on
opposite ceiling and floor or wall surfaces. A pair of magnetic pole pieces ( 10, 10' ) are
surrounded by superconducting electromagnetic coils ( 12, 12' ). The pole pieces are
positioned between the ferrous plates in axial alignment. When current flows through the
electromagnetic coils, magnetic flux flows between the pole pieces. The ferrous wall
sheathing or other ferrous constructions define a flux return path. The pole pieces are
magnetically attracted toward each other and are each magnetically mirrored in and
attracted toward the adjacent ferrous flux return path. The pole pieces are positioned
relative to each other and the ferrous flux return path such that the attraction between the
pole pieces is balanced by the attraction between each pole piece and its magnetically
mirrored image in the adjacent ferrous material of the flux return path. Optionally, the
magnets are selectively extinguished and one or both pole pieces are moved for better
access to the patient.
