Abstract: Improved metallized films are produced by transferring a protective layer onto a metal layer from the side of the film remote from the metal layer. The transfer preferably takes place in the metallizer shortly after metallization and before the metal layer is exposed to the atmosphere which reduces the tendency of the metal to oxidize leading to a purer metal layer with enhanced barrier properties.

Abstract: A constant velocity joint includes a male element (4) having at least two trunions (8) and a shaft (12) with an outside diameter (DAE). A respective wheel (32) is mounted to rotate on each trunion (8). The joint also includes a female element (20) having, for each wheel (32), a pair of paths (22, 24) and defining a path primary circle (PCD). The ratio of the outside diameter (DAE) of the shaft (12) to the path primary circle diameter (PCD) is greater than 0.55.

Abstract: A constant velocity joint (1) comprising: a male element (2) with multiple arms (4), a female element (8) having a central axis (X?-X?) and defining tracks (9A, 9B) which are symmetrical in relation to a radial longitudinal plane (P), and an outer roller (12) with a rolling surface (30). The tracks and the rolling surface define two contact points (Z1, Z2) therebetween. The tangent planes of the track and rolling surface coincide and are parallel to the plane (P) at not less than one contact point. The cross profiles of the tracks and rolling surface at not less than one contact point are rectilinear or convex.

Abstract: This invention concerns novel formulations of tipifarnib, which is suitable for intravenous (IV) administration. The invention further concerns the use of such formulation and processes for preparing such formulations and methods of treating by administering said formulations.

Abstract: Materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of hard surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified hard surfaces. In some embodiments, actively curing the coating composition on the hard surfaces, including, but not limited to by radiative heating the air surrounding the hard surface with the coating thereon can be used to increase the durability of the hard surface coating.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an oral solution comprising galantamine or a pharmaceutically acceptable addition salt thereof; its use and process of preparing the same.

Abstract: Improved metallized films are produced by transferring a protective layer onto a metal layer from the side of the film remote from the metal layer. The transfer preferably takes place in the metallizer shortly after metallization and before the metal layer is exposed to the atmosphere which reduces the tendency of the metal to oxidize leading to a purer metal layer with enhanced barrier properties.

Abstract: Metallized films having enhanced barrier properties consist of a first polymer layer, a barrier layer, and a metal layer coated with a heat seal and/or printable layer which has been transferred onto the metal layer.

Abstract: The cleaning of hard surfaces is addressed, where no visible streaks or residues are left on the surfaces which have been cleaned. The invention encompasses several embodiments which combine a hydrophilic nonionic surfactant with a selected alcohol, in specific ratios, or a hydrophobic nonionic surfactant with a selected alcohol and a sulfated anionic surfactant, in specific ratios, or all these components together.

Abstract: A tire mold 2 for curing new or retreaded tires 20 has an upper platen 4, a lower platen 6, and a central rim 30 with a frangible member 50 designed to open when a predetermined pressure P1 in excess of the normal curing pressure Pc is observed. The frangible member 50 preferably includes a rupture disk 60 that breaks upon exposure to the pressure P1.

Abstract: Materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of inanimate hard surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified hard surfaces. These surface modifications can produce long lasting or semi-permanent multi-use benefits that include at least one of the following improved surface properties: wetting and sheeting, quick drying, uniform drying, soil removal, self-cleaning, anti-spotting, anti-soil deposition, cleaner appearance, enhanced gloss, enhanced color, minor surface defect repair, smoothness, anti-hazing, modification of surface friction, release of actives and transparency, relative to hard surfaces unmodified with such nanoparticle systems.

Abstract: An electrically controlled hydraulic actuating system includes a servocontrol including a cylinder, a piston dividing the cylinder into two chambers each provided with a hydraulic connection port, a control valve connected to a hydraulic circuit. A two-way hydraulic pump is driven in rotation by an electric motor driven by power electronics. A switching device allows the connection ports of the chambers to be connected either to the control valve or the pump. The switching device connects the hydraulic connection ports both to the control valve and the pump, so as to allow the servocontrol to be supplied the sum of the hydraulic power delivered by the hydraulic circuit and the hydraulic power generated by the pump actuated by the electric motor.
