Abstract: Chromic luminescent compositions, and methods for the preparation and use of thereof, combining luminescent and non-luminescent materials that are capable of modulating color and brightness and frequency as a function of incident electromagnetic radiation intensity (dynamic camouflage) in combination with binders have been developed which do not have a detrimental effect on the hand of the textiles, fabrics and other materials to which it is applied.

Abstract: A luminescent end indicating tape comprising one or more base layers and an adhesive layer is disclosed. The one or more base layers provide support to the adhesive layer, whereas the adhesive layer comprises one or more fluorescent materials that convert at least a portion of incident electromagnetic radiation to a longer output wavelength. The adhesive layer redirects at least a portion of the longer output wavelength to at least an end of the tape, such that the end is illuminated with that of at least a portion of the longer output wavelength upon the tape being exposed to incident electromagnetic radiation. Further disclosed are methods of fabricating and using the luminescent end indicating tape.

Abstract: Apparatus and process are provided for weight-blending two or more constituents on a continuous basis. In operation, the constituents are sequentially added to a weight-measuring tank connected to a weight scale with an indicator which undergoes excursion between sensors positions. The scale face has an indicator which undergoes excursion between position sensors, such as electric eyes. When the system is electrically activated, a first position sensor detects zero weight from the measuring tank and remotely calls for the pumping of the first constituent, which continues until the indicator in excursion reaches a second position indicator.
