Abstract: Producing carbon fiber precursors and carbonized fibers comprise by treating a thin film of catalytic pitch at elevated temperature conditions, treating the resulting heavy isotropic pitch by agitating with an inert gas under elevated temperature conditions to form a mesophase pitch, forming green fibers from said mesophase pitch, stabilizing and optionally carbonizing said green fibers to obtain the desired product.

Abstract: Liquid fuel products are produced at least partially from coal by passing into a progressive flow catalytic cracking zone a mixture stream of coal and carbometallic oil, forming mobile hydrogen within said zone under conditions including vapor residence time of up to about 10 seconds, at 900.degree.-1,400.degree. F., and total pressure of about 10 to about 50 pounds per square inch absolute introducing said mobile hydrogen into said mixture stream; contacting said stream with zeolite cracking catalyst to produce liquid products while laying down coke on said catalyst; and separating said coked catalyst from said liquid products.
Abstract: Water reducible, dispersible, corrosion resistant coating compositions and methods for their manufacture are disclosed and demonstrated to be useful for protecting metals from corrosion. The composition comprises a water reducible, dispersible alkyd resin; a coupling agent; a surfactant; an amine; one or more driers; a chelating agent; water; and in one embodiment, a metallic inhibitor.
