Abstract: A system for bonding a condition indicator to an electrochemical cell is disclosed. The system employs an electrically conductive adhesive which bonds the indicator to a terminal of the cell. The terminal contact surface for the adhesive is desirably of tin. The adhesive contains metallic flakes and is preferably a thermally activated polyesterpolyurethane adhesive or a thermosetting adhesive containing acrylate monomers.
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for preparing shaped alumina particles for catalysts or catalyst supports by passing droplets of an aqueous slurry of a rehydratable alumina composition through a shaping medium, such as a column of water-immiscible liquid. The alumina composition undergoes rehydration while being shaped as it passes through the shaping medium, and accordingly, firm, discrete alumina bodies are produced.
