  • Patent number: 4676851
    Abstract: A process and apparatus for producing integral interlocking closure film stock useful in making reclosable containers by extruding a film of molten thermoplastic material onto a casting roll, extruding closure elements to contact and join said film at a point between about one inch and about five inches prior to the tangency line of the film on the periphery of the casting roll, partially cooling the closure elements with liquid coolant starting anywhere within the region between the closure element extrusion exits, and the tangency line of a film of molten thermoplastic material and the periphery of the casting roll, and further cooling the closure elements by directing them past additional cooling assemblies.

  • Patent number: 4664833
    Abstract: A corrosion-inhibited heat transfer composition concentrate comprising an alcohol, an organosiloxane/silicate copolymer, and a corrosion inhibiting amount of a nitrate salt. Such coolant concentrate may suitably be diluted with from about 25% to about 90% by weight of water based upon the weight of the concentrate, to form an aqueous composition which has particular utility as a corrosion-inhibited heat transfer composition for heat exchange systems, for example, those employed with internal combustion engines. Such compositions are highly effective in reducing corrosion in heat exchange systems containing components of aluminum construction.

  • Patent number: 4652538
    Abstract: Synthesis gas comprising carbon monoxide and hydrogen is converted to C.sub.5.sup.+ hydrocarbons suitable for use as liquid motor fuels by contact with a dual catalyst composition capable of ensuring the production of only relatively minor amounts of heavy products boiling beyond the diesel oil range. The catalyst composition, having desirable stability during continuous production operation, employs a Fischer-Tropsch catalyst, together with a co-catalyst/support component. The latter component is a steam-stabilized zeolite Y catalyst of hydrophobic character, desirably in acid-extracted form.
