Abstract: The invention discloses an aluminium salt for use in the treatment and prevention of dementias associated with ?-amyloid deposition, preferably AD.

Abstract: The invention relates to the monitoring of products by means of active radio tags. According to the invention, packagings of products are provided with an active radio tag that detects at least one environmental condition and/or at least one packaging state, and which emits a signal at time intervals, which provides information about a unique identifier and at least one state in which the respective product is found. The signal is picked up by a receiver that extracts the unique identifier and the state information and transmits same together with location information to an external server.

Abstract: A method of gluing a metal part to another part for use in a personal care device such as an electric toothbrush. The method includes steps of providing a metal, such as steel, part, and another, metal, part; treating a surface portion of the metal part with ultra-fast laser pulses having a pulse length in the femtosecond range, e.g., from about 1 femtosecond to about 990 femtoseconds, so that a surface layer of the metal surface is removed; applying an adhesive to the treated surface of the metal part or to a surface of the other part; and gluing the metal part and the other part together.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plastics laminate in particular for vehicle glazing. The composite is composed of at least three layers, where the two exterior layers are composed of a transparent polymethyl (meth)acrylate (PMMA) and the internal layer is composed of a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). The plastics laminate passes the ECE R43 falling-ball test and has better acoustic properties than prior-art plastics composites of the same size.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing coated mouldings with fully or partly structured surfaces. The present invention additionally describes a system for performing this process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of coated mouldings, by injecting a moulding composition into an injection mould and cooling the composition to obtain a moulding, and altering the injection mould in such a way as to produce an intermediate space between a surface to be coated of the moulding and the inner surface of the injection mould, and using injection moulding to charge a reactive mixture to the resultant intermediate space, where the temperature of at least a portion of the injection mould is increased for the curing of the reactive mixture. The present invention moreover describes a system for the conduct of the process described above.

Abstract: The invention describes a transparent plastics composite composed of PMMA and TPU with excellent mechanical properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to an injection molding method for the production of a complex, high optical quality light-diffusing molded item. The molding material used comprises a matrix made of polymethyl(meth)acrylate and spherical plastic particles whose particle size ranges from 1-24 ?m and the concentration thereof ranges from 0.05-30 wt.-% in relation to the weight of the polymethyl(meth)acrylate. The spherical particles exhibit a refractive index differential in relation to the polymethyl(meth)acrylate matrix of 0.01 0.2.

Abstract: In a method for operating at least one machine with a computer, it is possible for at least one task for the production of a printed product to be stored in the computer, which task is processed on the machine. Parameters for setting the machine are stored as parameter sets in templates and relate to one or more production steps. For the purpose of job-specific adaptation, the settings in the templates must be modified. On account of settings which have not been tried and tested and not proven worthwhile, costs arise in terms of quality; in addition the settings can be made only by specialized personnel. To increase quality and to allow less qualified personnel to operate the machines, a parameter set based on rough entered data is compared with templates and that a most similar template be used to set the production step or steps.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for producing thick-walled plastic molded parts by injection molding or embossing. The device comprises a mold for injection molding or embossing, having a cavity, and is characterized in that the mold comprises a wall region adjacent to the cavity, and a body removed from the cavity and adjacent to the wall region near the cavity, wherein the body of the mold is designed for a temperature T1 and the wall region is designed for a temperature T2 different from the temperature T1.
