Abstract: An arm pouch accessory or support structure adapted to be worn by a mail carrier to assist in the carrying, sorting, and delivery of incoming and outgoing mail, as well as the method or process of using this accessory. The arm pouch facilitates the exchange of incoming and outgoing mail by providing an easily accessible, convenient, and partitioned transition area between the mail carrier's mailbag and a mailbox.

Abstract: A U.V. curable composition for application to a substrate surface to provide a static dissipative coating which comprises a conductive matrix constituent having a crown type ligand selected from the group consisting of podands, coronands and cryptands in a guest/host relationship with a conductive dopant moiety. Such ligands included those provided by functionalized podands and functionalized coronands. The formulation further includes a polymer matrix constituent formed of a base oligomer system and a crosslinking agent which is reactive with the base oligomer system to form a crosslinked resin matrix which incorporates the conductive matrix constituent. A low viscosity diluent functions as a solvating liquid for the crosslinking agent and the base oligomer system. The formulation further includes a photoinitiator of the free radical or cationic type to initiate polymerization of the composition upon the application of electromagnetic radiation in the ultraviolet range.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of purifying afullerenes by recrystallization of a fullerene-complexing agent complex and to a fullerene-complexing agent complex.

Abstract: A method for incorporating concurrrent delivery of a bactericidal agent into water intended for supply to a dental unit. A reservoir adapted to contain a liquid bactericidal agent is connected to a variable rate pump having an inlet line extending from the reservoir to the inlet of the pump. An outlet line extends from the pump outlet and provides a bactericide supply line. A water supply line is adapted to be connected to a source of water under pressure which provides a flow path through the system to a suitable outlet adapted to be connected to a dental unit. A mixing junction interconnects the water supply line and the bactericide supply line so that bactericide can be mixed into the water supply line. A flow sensing unit is responsive to fluid flow in the water supply line and generates an output parameter representative of this flow rate. A flow control system responds to this measured parameter to vary the pumping rate of the pump.

Abstract: A composition and method for the removal of ionic salt deposits from a surface using an organic solvent of low polarity and a complexing agent. The complexing agent is chosen from a group which includes podands, cryptands, and coronands. The method provides nearly complete removal of ionic salt deposits with a single washing of the surface with the low polar cleaning mixture.
