  • Publication number: 20220332891
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to the field of polymer materials, and, in particular, to a method for synthesizing a bio-based polyamide. More specifically, the disclosure provides a method for synthesizing a block copolymer consisting of a hard segment of a polyamide prepared via solid state polycondensation and a soft segment of a polyether polyol. Due to a reaction of itaconic acid, which contains a carbon-carbon double bond, with hexamethylenediamine, the bio-based polyamide is greatly different from conventional linear polyamides and exhibits a lower glass transition temperature and excellent mechanical properties. Unlike conventional processes for preparing modified polyamides, the bio-based polyamide is synthesized, according to the method, through chain extension of a polyamide with an excess amount of a diisocyanate based on amine value of the polyamide and then crosslinking of the resulting product with a polyether polyol by using glycerol as a crosslinking agent.

  • Patent number: 10934620
    Abstract: Implementations described herein generally relate to an apparatus for forming flowable films. In one implementation, the apparatus is a processing chamber including a first RPS coupled to a lid of the processing chamber and a second RPS coupled to a side wall of the processing chamber. The first RPS is utilized for delivering deposition radicals into a processing region in the processing chamber and the second RPS is utilized for delivering cleaning radicals into the processing region. The processing chamber further includes a radical delivery ring disposed between a showerhead and a substrate support for delivering cleaning radicals from the second RPS into the processing region. Having separate RPSs for deposition and clean along with introducing radicals from the RPSs into the processing region using separate delivery channels minimizes cross contamination and cyclic change on the RPSs, leading to improved deposition rate drifting and particle performance.

  • Patent number: 10891343
    Abstract: A method and system for recommending potential contacts to a target user is provided. A recommendation system identifies users who are related to the target user through no more than a maximum degree of separation. The recommendation system identifies the users by starting with the contacts of the target user and identifying users who are contacts of the target user's contacts, contacts of those contacts, and so on. The recommendation system then ranks the identified users, who are potential contacts for the target user, based on a likelihood that the target user will want to have a direct relationship with the identified users. The recommendation system then presents to the target user a ranking of the users who have not been filtered out.

    Abstract: A piece of chip-to-wafer and chip-to-chip bonding equipment, which has innovative designs enabling chip(s) from either a diamagnetic carrier or a diced wafer to expose the chip back side surface for pickup, is invented. The designs either use a levitation technology, or air dynamic, or a novel mechanical design to fulfill the chip front surfaces touchless requirement to avoid the chip surface contamination. The invented chip bonder is particularly useful for bonding applications which require using chips with zero tolerance of particle and/or contamination on the chip front surfaces or bonding surfaces.
