Patent EP-1291375-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BURGOYNE WILLIAM FRANKLIN JR
IPC: C08J3/24
Filed: 1999-02-23
Abstract: This invention is a novel combination of crosslinking groups, which grafted to the
backbone of thermally stable polymers, can be thermally induced to crosslink the
polymers, affording a thermoset polymer system. This invention is particularly suited for
high Tg polymers where the desired temperature for crosslinking reaction (cure) is in the
range of 200-450 °C. This invention utilizes a graft technique to attach various
diarylhydroxymethyl and 9-(9-hydroxyfluorenyl) groups to poly(arylene ether) polymer
backbone. Upon thermal treatment of the modified (grafted) polymer at temperatures of
200-450 °C, crosslinking reactions take place, resulting in a thermoset polymer with
increased Tg and elastic modulus above the Tg.

carried out, the composition for granulation treatment
being so prepared that an amount of fine particles floating

method of carrying out granulation treatment of the raw
materials for iron and steel making, which is suitable for

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une composition de revêtement aqueuse épaissie ( de préférence des peintures et autres ou des adhésifs) contenant un liant polymère filmogène qui produit des revêtements secs qui sont moins sensibles à l'eau du fait qu'ils renferment un épaississant qui est auto-oxydable. Des fractions auto-oxydables préférées sont formées par des acides gras à chaînes longues du type utilisé dans les peintures aux résines alkydes et l'association est le mécanisme préféré pour l'épaississeur. Les fractions peuvent former une partie d'un composé qui peut participer à une copolymérisation pour former un squelette polymère sans cellulose pour l'épaississant et, si le composé n'est pas très soluble dans l'eau, le mélange de copolymérisation est soumis à une agitation intensive pour former des gouttelettes d'un diamètre moyen inférieur à 500 nm qui compense le manque de solubilité. L'épaississant peut servir de liant si on utilise des quantités suffisantes.

Abstract: A retractable sharps assembly comprising a housing and a sharps unit. The housing comprises first and second open ends and a shoulder proximate the first end. The sharps unit generally comprises a frame, a shelf having a sharps member extending therefrom positioned in the frame, and at least one elastic member extending between the shelf and the forward end. As the frame is inserted into and moved forward in the hollow housing, the shelf is retained by the shoulder such that the elastic member is loaded between the shelf and forward end. A trigger mechanism interacts with the shoulder and disengages the shelf. The load in the elastic member drives the sharps member towards the forward end and through the second end opening, and simultaneously compresses the elastic member. The elastic member thereafter relaxes to retract the sharps member within the housing.
