Abstract: The instant invention relates to a system for the forming and trimming of tubular articles, such as aluminum and steel cans. The irregular edge at the open end of the can is trimmed by internally and externally positioned knives with respect to the can, with the internally positioned knife having a diameter less than 0.0015 inch shorter than the inside diameter of the can.

Abstract: Triorganotin derivatives of polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids are prepared either in the presence or absence of solvent by reacting the acid or a suitable derivative thereof with a triorganotin hydroxide or a bis(triorganotin)oxide. Polymerization of the acid or the triorganotin derivative thereof is avoided by using a dehydrating agent to remove the water formed as a by-product of the reaction.

Abstract: Tri(.beta.-substituted phenethyl)tin halides such as trineophyltin chloride are prepared by reacting three moles of the corresponding organomagnesium halide for every mole of an organotin trihalide containing an alkyl or a phenyl group bonded to the tin atom. The resultant tetraorganotin compound is reacted with an anhydrous stannic halide in a hydrocarbon diluent and the desired triorganotin halide is isolated following hydrolysis of the reaction mixture.

Abstract: An oriented two-layered laminate of vinylidene chloride-vinyl chloride copolymer as one layer and an ethylene-unsaturated ester type copolymer as the other layer. To this laminate may be adhered another polymer, also capable of being oriented, plastic sheet, paper sheet or board, metal or metal foil. Products such as pouches, chubs, formed troughs and the like can be made therefrom because the vinylidene chloride-vinyl chloride copolymer retains its orientation.

Abstract: This invention relates to the recovery of tin as tin metal from tin plate scrap on a continuous basis comprising continuously advancing shredded scrap through an electrically anodic rotating perforated drum partially but not completely immersed in a caustic solution containing no oxidizing agents, plating the tin content of said tin plate scrap upon cathodes disposed obversely and externally to said electrically anodic rotating drum arranged in a longitudinal row on the inside wall of a tank containing said caustic solution.

Abstract: Copolymers of glycidyl methacrylate and allyl glycidyl ether having pendant epoxy groups, having an inherent viscosity of at least about 0.25, preferably within the range of about 0.25 to about 0.38, and an epoxy equivalent of at least about 0.65 epoxide equivalent per 100g. of polymer are provided which upon admixture with a radiation-sensitive aryldiazonium salt provide compositions which exhibit improved sensitivity, curing rates and other properties. Articles for recording and storing information from a laser source and other articles such as microfilm are derived from such compositions by subjecting a coated substrate to an energy source of sufficient intensity to decompose the radiation-sensitive catalyst and thus effect polymerization via the epoxy groups of the copolymer.

Abstract: A seamless, closed bottom steel container (shell) principally for food products, is drawn and lengthened from a starting blank of steel having a layer of tin; afterwards, the shell is baked to develop a corrosion resistant tin-iron alloy between the steel substrate and a reserve layer of unalloyed tin.

Abstract: Additives can be permanently incorporated into melt spun fibers by cold drawing the fibers under conditions that generate a network of interconnecting microvoids within the fiber. The microvoids are formed in the presence of specified liquid or vapor media which fill the microvoid network. The temperature of the medium is below the effective glass transition temperature of the fibers containing said medium. The additive is either present in said medium or is applied to drawn fibers containing said medium.

Abstract: Parisons for use in making blow molded highly molecularly oriented plastic bottles are injection molded using a cooled cavity and a relatively hot core pin to prevent the formation of residual internal stress in or near the surface of the parison. The pin is maintained at a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the resin to reduce the formation of cracks when the parison is subsequently blow molded in the orientation temperature range.

Abstract: The instant invention relates to an end closure or cover for a metal container comprising a substantially flat sheet metal lid seamed about its extremity to the container body closing the end thereof. The lid has a pour opening having a closure hingedly connected to the lid and closing the pour opening, and wherein first and second sealing means are provided to seal the closure and to provide resistance of the closure to atmospheric pressure and premature opening of the container.

Abstract: Copolymers of glycidyl methacrylate and allyl glycidyl ether having pendant epoxy groups, having an inherent viscosity of at least about 0.25, preferably within the range of about 0.25 to about 0.38, and an epoxy equivalent of at least about 0.65 epoxide equivalent per 100g. of polymer are provided which upon admixture with a radiation-sensitive aryldiazonium salt provide compositions which exhibit improved sensitivity, curing rates and other properties. Articles for recording and storing information from a laser source and other articles such as microfilm are derived from such compositions by subjecting a coated substrate to an energy source of sufficient intensity to decompose the radiation-sensitive catalyst and thus effect polymerization via the epoxy groups of the copolymer.

Abstract: Parisons are injection molded using a cooled cavity and a relatively hot core pin to prevent the formation of residual internal stress in or near the inner surface of the parison. The parison is promptly transferred while still hot from the injection mold to a temperature conditioning station to provide a desired temperature distribution and the temperature conditioned parison is highly molecularly biaxially oriented as it is blow molded.

Abstract: Copolymers of glycidyl acrylate and allyl glycidyl ether and terpolymers derived from addition of glycidyl methacrylate to the polymerizable mixture, having an inherent viscosity within the range of about 0.09 to 0.28 and an epoxy equivalent of at least about 0.64 per 100 g. of polymer are provided which upon admixture with a catalyst which is a radiation-sensitive aryldiazonium salt of a complex halogenide, provides compositions suitable for use in a dry photopolymer positive imaging process. In the process, the polymer which is non-tacky at room temperature, together with the catalyst is applied to a substrate and exposed to an energy source for example, electromagnetic radiation through a transparency or mask. Following exposure, the coating is heated to the softening point of the unexposed portion of the coating and a powder or toner is applied thereto, the toner being adhered to only the tacky, non-exposed area of the coating, resulting in a pigmented image.
