Cathode ray tubes having reduced glass browning properties, U.S. Patent 6,097,144
Creators: name: Lehman, Richard L.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2000

description: The present invention provides an inexpensive cathode ray tube envelope which suffers considerably diminished glass browning in comparison with traditional cathode ray tube envelopes. The method of reducing glass browning in cathode ray tubes, and a suitable glass composite and glass composition are also provided. The cathode ray tube envelope of the present invention includes a screen which has an inner and an outer glass layers. The inner layer is made of lead-free glass whereas the outer layer is made of lead-containing glass. In the operational cathode ray tube of the present invention, the electron beams emitted therein, are absorbed by the inner layer without substantial browning, since the inner layer does not contain material that cause browning, and do not penetrate to the lead-containing outer layer. At the same time, the X-rays produced in the cathode ray tube are effectively and efficiently blocked by the lead-containing outer layer. The result is both significant reduction in glass browning and effective X-ray protection.

description: Energy dispersive x-ray diffraction spectra are obtained from numerous volume elements within an object. A feature set such as a set of cepstrum coefficients is extracted from each spectrum and classified by a trained classifier such as a neural network to provide an indication of whether or not contraband such as explosives is present in the volume element. Indications for adjacent volume elements are evaluated in conjunction with one another, as by an erosion process, to suppress isolated indications and thereby suppress false alarms.

Sclerophrys funerea

description: Sclerophrys funerea (Bocage, 1866)
TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Duque de Bragança ”, Calandula, Angola.
DISTRIBUTION.— This species has a wide range extending across the rainforests throughout west-central Africa, from Gabon to Uganda, and southwards to Angola. In Equatorial Guinea, it has been reported only from Bioko by Boulenger (1882) as Bufo benguelensis Boulenger, 1882 (Map 11C).
COMMENTS.— This species was described from a juvenile specimen collected in Calandula, Angola “Duque de Bragança”. In Equatorial Guinea, Boulenger (1882) reported this species, as Bufo benguelensis, on Bioko (then known as Fernando Poo) and “Benguela”; this taxon was synonymized with B. funereus by Bocage (1895b). However, the taxonomic status and, consequently, the distribution of S. funerea is not clear (Marques et al. 2018), and its presence in Equatorial Guinea is doubtful.
SPECIMENS EXAMINED.— We did not find any specimen of this taxon in the collections examined in this study.

Rechargeable hybrid battery/supercapacitor system, U.S. Patent 6,252,762
Creators: name: Amatucci, Glenn G.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2001

description: A rechargeable hybrid battery/supercapacitor electrical storage system capable of providing high energy and high power densities comprises an intercalation electrode (17) and a capacitor electrode (13) combined with a separator (15) and electrically-conductive current collector elements (11, 19) to form a unitary cell structure (10). An electrolyte solution of a dissociable salt absorbed into the porous structure of the separator (15) provides complementary ion species which respectively reversibly intercalate into the one electrode (17) and capacitively adsorb at the surface of the other electrode (13) upon the application of charging current. The high density stored electrical energy may be recovered at high power over extended periods upon demand of a utilizing device and may be rapidly restored to stable capacity through numerous charging cycles.

Sclerophrys gracilipes

description: Sclerophrys gracilipes (Boulenger, 1899) Photo figure 10E
TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Benito River, French (Congo) (sic)”, Río Muni, Equatorial Guinea.
DISTRIBUTION.— Sclerophrys gracilipes is known from West-Central Africa extending from Nigeria to Democratic Republic of Congo and Republic of Congo. Within Equatorial Guinea it has been recorded in Río Muni by Boulenger (1899a) (Type locality: “Benito River”) and De la Riva (1994), and on Bioko by Mertens (1965) (as Bufo funereus gracilipes) and Hydeman et al. (2017) (Map 12A).
COMMENTS.— The molecular phylogeny provided by Liedtke et al. (2016) suggests that this taxon is not monophyletic; thus, a taxonomic revision is in order. As the type locality is in mainland Equatorial Guinea, the specific epithet would be retained for the populations of the clade inhabiting the region of Río Muni and surroundings. On the other hand, populations from Bioko seem to represent a distinct undescribed taxonomic unit (Liedtke et al. 2016).
SPECIMENS EXAMINED.— Fourteen specimens. Ctra. airport Malabo-Luba (10 km from Malabo), 02 June 1984 (EBD 18658); Bata: Río Bizingui, 30 August 1986 (EBD 25038); Miboman, 01 September 1984 (EBD18285); Miboman, April 1988 (EBD 28090); San Joaquín de Ndyiacomm (B8438, B8541–B8544); Equatorial Guinea, without precise locality (5 specimens, one of them with the label EBD 27840).

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2002

description: Amorphous manganese dioxide cathodes for lithium batteries with lithium metal or other lithium-containing anodes, the cathode being synthesized by a sol-gel approach involving reduction of sodium permanganate with fumaric acid disodium salt carried out at room temperature to ensure an amorphous structure. The resulting amorphous manganese dioxide has a nanoporous structure and a high internal surface area of 350 m2/g. The amorphous manganese dioxide can electrochemically intercalate more than 1.6 moles of lithium per mole of manganese, and its theoretical capacity is 2 moles of lithium per mole of manganese. The host structure remains amorphous in the entire intercalation range and the intercalation process is reversible. Lithium battery cathodes comprising the amorphous manganese dioxide, a carbon powder and a binder provide a charge capacity in the level of 436 mAh/g and store energy at the level of 1056 mWh/g. Copper doped amorphous manganese oxides showed significant improvement in cycling performance.

Creators: name: Nosker, Thomas
name: Renfree, Richard W.
name: Kerstein, James
name: Simon, Louis
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2006

description: To increase the resistance of plastic and/or plastic composite railroad ties to sliding within the ballast of the railroad bed, for example, sliding lengthwise (in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tie) and sideways (in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis), ties with a textured surface which aids in anchoring the ties within the ballast of the railroad beds. In particular, the ties are provided with a pattern of indentations within a surface that contacts the ballast which increases the ties resistance to sliding. The pattern is molded into the ties so as to mechanically interact with the ballast (rocks) and provide as much resistance to sliding as possible, especially along the longitudinal axis of the tie but also in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

description: A new class of nanostructured RE-doped SiO2-base materials that display superior fluorescence properties is provided. In particular, high gain combined with a broad and flat spectral band width is observed in material composed of a high fraction of a nano-dispersed metastable silicate phase in a glassy SiO2 matrix, produced by partial devitrification (crystallization) of several glassy Al2O3/Er2O3- and Y2O3/Er2O3-doped SiO2 compositions. Also, a highly deconvoluted spectral emission, with several prominent peaks, is observed in completely devitrified material, consisting of a uniform nano-dispersion of an equilibrium silicate phase in a crystobalite SiO2 matrix. Such enhanced fluorescence properties were observed in heat treated nanopowders prepared by vapor-phase, solgel, rapid solidification, and spray-pyrolysis methods
Transition metal fluoride: carbon nanoamalgam rechargeable battery cell electrode material, U.S. Patent 7,625,671
Creators: name: Amatucci, Glenn G.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2009

description: A safe and economical electrochemically active material useful in rechargeable battery cell electrode compositions comprises a nanostructure amalgam of a transition metal fluoride and carbon. The nanoamalgam may be prepared by subjecting a precursor mixture of a transition metal fluoride, such as FeF3, and carbon to extreme, high energy impact comminution milling which results in the conversion of the mixture to a unique and distinct nanostructure material. When incorporated as active electrode material in lithium battery cell fabrications, the nanoamalgam enables the attainment of stable specific discharge capacities in the range of 250 to 500 mAh/g.

Sclerophrys latifrons

description: Sclerophrys latifrons (Boulenger, 1900) Photo figure 10F
TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Benito River ”, Río Muni, Equatorial Guinea.
DISTRIBUTION.— It inhabits dense and high tropical forests over the Gulf of Guinea region from Cameroon to Gabon and Congo, extending to the Democratic Republic of Congo. In Equatorial Guinea S. latifrons has been recorded in Río Muni (where the type locality is: “Benito River”) (Boulenger 1900; De la Riva 1994) and on Bioko (Boulenger 1906a) (Map 12B).
COMMENTS.— The record of Bioko is doubtful. Despite the efforts to sample amphibians from Bioko, S. latifrons has not been recorded from the island since Boulenger (1906a). This species has been included in a recent molecular phylogeny (Liedtke et al. 2016). However, the phylogeographic structure across most of its range, including the Equatorial Guinean populations, remains unknown. The record identified as “ Bufo maculatus ” from Monte Mitra at Monte Alén National Park (Gonwouo and Nsang 2005) likely belongs to S. latifrons.
SPECIMENS EXAMINED.— Eight specimens. Miboman, Bata-Movo (Km 27), 24 June 1984 (EBD 18601); Miboman-Movo-Bata (Km 27), 05 October 1984 (EBD 18253); Guinea Ecuatorial,

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2016

description: The present invention relates to development of bioactive glass/glass-ceramic composition that are able to promote a fast deposition layer of carbonated hydroxyapatite upon immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF) for time periods as short as one hour. Such composition might include fluorides, and a variety of oxides (or their precursor compounds), such as Na2O—Ag2O—SrO—CaO—MgO—ZnO—P2O5—SiO2—Bi2O3—B2O3—CaF2, be prepared by the melt route or by the sol-gel process, with the specific composition and the preparation route selected according to the intended functionalities, which can present controlled biodegradation rate and bactericidal activity. The powders derived from glass melts purred in cold water (frits) may completely densify by sintering at temperatures up to 800° C. without devitrification, resulting in bioglass compacts with high flexural strength (˜85 MPa). The bioactive glass powders prepared by sol-gel densify at lower temperatures due to their higher specific surface area and reactivity.

TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Fernando Po ”, Bioko, Equatorial Guinea.
DISTRIBUTION.— It occupies the tropical forest of the Gulf of Guinea region from Cameroon to Gabon, Congo and Democratic Republic of Congo. In Equatorial Guinea, this species occurs both on Bioko and in Río Muni. Within Bioko it has been recorded from several localities (Mertens 1965; Boulenger 1900), while it is only known from two localities in the continental region of Río Muni (Boulenger 1903; De la Riva 1994) (Map 13A).
COMMENTS.— Populations from Río Muni appear morphologically different from those on Bioko and in Cameroon. Phylogenetic relationships within the genus were studied by Liedtke et al. (2016) based on molecular data.

Material examinado. Argentina, Corrientes, sobre Campomanesia, n. v. capiazú, x.1940, Vergani col., (en la etiqueta de la derecha se lee: Macracanthopyga verganianus n. g. n. sp. Det. CALT), 1(12, 3N 1); Corrientes, x.1940, sin datos de hospedero ni colector, 2(33, 9N 1, 1N 2) (CALT); Corrientes, x.1940, sin datos de hospedero ni colector, 1(8, 34 N 1, 2N 2) (IFML) (Parecen ser material Sintipo). Lizer y Trelles (1955) indica que el material tipo fue depositado en su colección personal; sin embargo, ninguno de los cuatro preparados permanentes incluidos en la misma, están marcados como tipo.
Comentarios. Los ejemplares estudiados coinciden con la descripción de la hembra adulta realizada por Hodgson y Miller (2010). Además la longitud del labio, redondeado y aparentemente unisegmentado, es de 29–34 M m.
Los microconductos angostos, con el extremo interno con dos protuberancias y la base del filamento ancha (Fig. 1), observados solo en esta especie, corresponden a uno de los cuatro tipos de microconductos encontrados en eriocóccidos argentinos (González, datos no publicados).
Datos biológicos. Esta especie se encuentra recubierta por una gruesa capa de cera, en las ramas del hospedero (Lizer y Trelles 1955; Gullan et al. 2005) y según Ferris (1957a) y Beardsley (1984) produce agallas. Se efectúo la búsqueda de más material en la localidad tipo, en Corrientes, a fin de verificar su aspecto en campo, sin embargo, no se encontró ningún ejemplar de Campomanesia Ruiz y Pav., hospedero conocido de la especie.
