Abstract: A method for producing a contact material made of copper and chromium in a proportion of 40 to 75 wt.-% copper and 25 to 60 wt.-% of chromium for contact pieces for vacuum switch devices by pressing the powder mixture, sintering and infiltrating the compact and subsequent reshaping into a semi-finished contact material product having a density which corresponds to at least 99% of the theoretical density, as well as to contact pieces made of this semi-finished contact material product.

Abstract: A versatile envelope assembly that can be printed upon either before or after the resulting envelope is assembled. The resulting envelope can be used to store a wide variety of items, including compact discs and digital video discs, and can also provide a label for labeling the items contained in the envelope. The label is specially designed to extend the life of compact discs and digital video discs when applied to these items. Furthermore, the resulting envelope can be used as a mailing envelope, a filing pocket, a ring-binder pocket, or for any other suitable use.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a multi-layer material having a front section, a back section and an intermediate section connecting the front section and the back section, wherein the multi-layer material comprises a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent layer disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. At least one three-dimensional resilient fluid-filled chamber is disposed in the absorbent layer or between at least a portion of the absorbent layer and the backsheet.

In one embodiment the sequestering agents are comprised of modified and non-modified clays. In one embodiment, the skin irritants are bound to sequestering agents present on a substrate. In another embodiment the skin irritants are bound to sequestering agents present on the skin.

Abstract: A nonwoven, disposable, incontinence garment, such as a diaper, has refastenable attachment means, such as a hook and look fastening system for attaching the front panel to the back panel. The garment is packaged in its point of sale container with the attachment means prefastened so that it can be used immediately as a pull on garment and then removed in the manner of a diaper. The attachment means of the rear panel includes extra material which is folded on itself and lightly bonded at the folds to provide simple in-process execution of a permanent lap bond between the attachment means and the rear panel which will not separate during use of the garment. The attachment means of the front panel includes extra material which is folded on itself and lightly bonded at the folds to also provide extra expansion of the diaper.

Abstract: A flame-resistant additive for textile materials and microfiber non-woven fabrics of the artificial-leather type that imparts a high level of fireproofing properties to the textile material treated without negatively affecting the visual and mechanical characteristics, softness to the touch. The flame-resistant additive includes a fireproofing component having a finely divided mixture of melamine and melamine cyanurate and a clay or other adsorbent material such as diatomaceous earth, zeolite, inorganic oxides such as alumina, silica, magnesium oxide or mixtures of inorganic oxides and a binder which includes an aqueous dispersion of an acrylic or maleic polymer or copolymer and a multifunctional cross-linker of the acrylic or maleic polymer or copolymer.

Abstract: A grater with a cylindrical housing which on an end side is limited by a grating insert arranged in a rotationally fixed and exchangeable manner. In the housing there is mounted a receiving cylinder with entraining means. The receiving cylinder accommodates the grating product and is rotationally and movably mounted. A pressing body which is axially movable in the receiving cylinder is in a positive-fit active connection with the entraining means of the receiving cylinder. The pressing body has a rotary knob projecting beyond the housing and the receiving cylinder in every position of use. In the housing, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing, there is arranged an insertion slot through which the exchangeable grating insert is insertable. In an inserted condition the grating insert rests on a support in the housing and is held in a positioned manner by a centric peg on the receiving cylinder.
