Abstract: The invention relates to a fluid comprising or consisting of glycerol and potassium acetate in a weight ratio interval of 3:2 to 1:6 with a water content of 55-80 w %, wherein the combined weight of glycerol and potassium acetate constitutes 20-45 w %, up to a maximum or total of 100 w %. The inventive fluid is useful as a heat transfer fluid, a deicing fluid or a windscreen washing fluid. A method for producing the inventive fluid is also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a microemulsion comprising water in an amount of 1-30 w %; sodium or potassium oleate, Na/K salts of tall oil fatty acid, and/or Na/K salts of C16-C18 saturated or unsaturated fatty acids in an amount of 10-40 w %; oleic acid, tall oil fatty acid, or C16-C18 saturated or unsaturated fatty acids in an amount of 2-40 w %; ethanol in an amount of 0-40 w %; glycerol in an amount of 5-40 w %; and liquid hydrocarbon(s) in an amount of 5-40 w %, up to a maximum or total of components parts of 100 w %. Moreover, methods of manufacture and uses of the microemulsion are disclosed.

Abstract: A method of producing a non-petroleum based electrical insulating oil, wherein the method can include providing a primary mixture of non-petroleum origin, containing isomerized straight chain hydrocarbons; performing a distillation and/or stripping of the primary mixture; collecting a paraffinic base oil as a product of the distillation and/or stripping, containing a mixture of isoalkanes and alkanes; and mixing the base oil with an antioxidant additive.

Abstract: A suspension system for mounting a false ceiling which allows for adjusting the height of the false ceiling to any desired value. The system includes: a system of ceiling rails screwed or otherwise connected to an existing ceiling; a number of suspension pendulums mounted in the ceiling rails, each of which includes: an upper telescopic part for mounting in a ceiling rail, and a lower telescopic part for connecting false ceiling plates to the suspension pendulums. The telescopic parts of each suspension pendulum are slidable in relation to each other and have a substantially C-shaped horizontal cross section, and branches which are at least slightly resilient, and the upper and lower telescopic parts, at the branch edges thereof are formed with cooperating snap locking means for making it possible to interconnect the telescopic parts in any mutual height positions while the branches bow resiliently out, and in respectively, until they have been lockingly snap engaged in each other.

Abstract: This invention relates to a roof construction, preferably intended to be arranged on a roof of a slight fall and comprising a plurality of supporting plate profiles (1:1') which are put on crossbars (6) or the like, said plate profiles (1:1') being placed in a certain spaced relationship.At roofs having a slight fall, so-called plane roofs, it has so far been impossible in principle to use outer roof covering, as inleakage of water has been a great problem.The invention is characterized in that channeled plates (8) are laid on the supporting plate profiles (1:1') and that a condensate bar in the form of a disc (15) is arranged under each plate (8) at some distance from this, the disc (15) connecting with the plate profiles (1:1').

Abstract: The invention relates to a plate profile (1) intended to be fitted to an anchoring profile (8) connected with a support and to carry another plate profile (5) in the region of its upper end. The plate profile (1) has an upright central portion (2) with an upwardly decreasing width. Two lateral portions (3) which extend transversely to the central portion (2) start from the central portion (2). The lateral portions (3) extend vertically between the anchoring profile (8) and the further plate profile (5). The plate profile (1) is provided with means (12) for engagement with the anchoring profile (8). In the region of their upper end the lateral portions (3) are connected with the further plate profile (5) by way of attaching means (7). The width of the lateral portions (5) increases upwards.The plate profile (1) is included as an essential component of a structure replacing known frames of crossbars for supporting roofs of buildings.
