Abstract: Thermoformable, Long Lasting Phosphorescent Acrylic Resin for Castings, Adhesives, Moldings, Coatings and Liquid Inlays are manufactured from thermosetting acrylic syrup, promoters, additives, fillers and phosphorescent pigments and are used to manufacture thermoformed, cast, coated, inlayed, molded articles and reinforced composites. These phosphorescent resins glow-in-the-dark, and exhibit a long lasting, bright glow after exposure to light (photoluminescence). Products made from this Thermoformable, Long Lasting Phosphorescent Thermosetting Acrylic Resin overcome deficiencies in prior art, because they are thermoformable to a tighter radius, more ductile, tougher and more flexible, extremely weather resistant and have a longer afterglow. Furthermore, products made from this phosphorescent acrylic thermosetting resin have the novel ability to be joined using a phosphorescent thermoset acrylic adhesive that results in a chemical bond without the need of surface preparation.

Abstract: Orders for execution of securities transactions and requests for asset movement are screened by a rules engine and may be automatically approved. The rules engine has rules which are user configurable. The rules may be configured to provide different outcomes, to provide a user selectable scope of application and to provide user selectable parameters. A transaction is processed against the rule set applicable thereto in order of increasing scope of the rules. That is, rules applicable to the account level are processed before rules applicable to the registered representative, office or firm. Individual broker-dealer firms may each configure rules applicable to their own firms independently of rules applicable to any other firm serviced by the rules engine.

Abstract: Plastic surfacing material of the FOUNTAINHEAD.RTM. type having a bold and aesthetically pleasing appearance is achieved by the use TFR pigments, the latter of which are manufactured by orienting reflective flake pigments in a plastic substrate and grinding the substrate to a particulate material.
