  • Publication number: 20080275197
    Abstract: A bimodal polyethylene having a high density ranging from about 0.955 to about 0.959 g/cc, an improved environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) of from about 400 to about 2500 hours, and an improved 0.4% flexural modulus of from about 180,000 to about 260,000 psi (1,200 MPa to about 1,800 MPa) may be formed using a Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalyst using two reactors in series. The bimodal polyethylene may have a high load melt index (HLMI) of from about 2 and about 30 dg/min and may be optionally made with a small amount of alpha-olefinic comonomer in the second reactor. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.

  • Patent number: 6088805
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products authenticate client requests to access server resources. A server receives a certificate containing multiple data fields associated with the client making a request. The server selects data from at least one of the certificate data fields and filters the selected data using at least one predefined filter rule associated with the requested server resources to authenticate the client request. Combinations of filter rules may be utilized and the server may select data from various combinations of data fields.
