  • Publication number: 20230152946
    Abstract: In one general aspect, a method can include causing display of a webpage within a display area of a browser, and causing display of a search area indicator associated with an area of the webpage. The method can include receiving a selection of the search area indicator. In response to the selection of the search area indicator being received the method can include defining an image corresponding to the area, and triggering a search query based on the image. The method can include receiving a search result in response to the search query, and causing display of the search result in a search result area outside of the display area where the search result area is within the browser.

  • Patent number: 8487089
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a water-soluble associative cellulose ether having a DP viscosity from 250 to 20,000 mPa·s, measured at a concentration of 1% by weight, and a molecular substitution, MS, from 0.0001 to 0.005 of a hydrophobic substituent containing an unsubstituted or substituted hydrocarbon group of 8-24 carbon atoms. The cellulose ether has a good thickening effect and advantageous application properties at low contents and can be used in an aqueous decorative paint composition, an aqueous paper coating composition, an aqueous organic filler composition, an aqueous cement slurry, an aqueous detergent composition or an aqueous personal care formulation.

  • Patent number: 7319146
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nonionic methyl ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose ether having a flocculation temperature of 70-95° C., a DS-methyl of 0.1-0.8 and a DS-ethyl of 0.1-0.7. The cellulose ether has versatile properties and may be used as a thickening agent or a rheology modifier in an aqueous formulation, such as an aqueous latex-containing paint composition. A process for manufacturing the cellulose ether is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 6639066
    Abstract: This invention relates to a suspension of a water-soluble, nonionic cellulose ether having a fairly low content of an electrolytic salt exhibiting a high stability and a low viscosity. The suspension having a pH-value of below 8.0, contains 10-30% by weight of a water-soluble, nonionic cellulose ether, and 10-22% by weight of an electrolytic salt, wherein the electrolytic salt contains a) 10-90% by weight of a salt of polyphosphate having 3-12 phosphate groups, and b) 10-90% by weight of a salt selected from the group consisting of ortophosphate, pyrophosphate, sulphate, carbonate and a mixture thereof. The suspension is advantageously produced by adding a dry blend containing the water-soluble cellulose ether in cross-linked form and the electrolytic salt to water.
