Abstract: Method and composition for improving lubricity, abrasion resistance, and lowering the coefficient friction of subtrates such as photographic film, magnetic surfaces and other recording elements by applying to such substrates a solution comprising tetrafluoroethylene telomer and a copolymer of vinyl chloride and trifluorochloroethylene in a volatile solvent, drying and removing the excess, and substrates so lubricated.

Abstract: A plurality of range increments are sequentially pulse-illuminated and energy reflected therefrom is received by a gated light amplifier. Timing circuitry sequentially varies the range viewed, by adjusting the time between illumination and gating on of the light amplifier to achieve enhancement, suppression or apparent uniform illumination of preselected range increments such that all ranges of interest are viewed by the light amplifier within a single integration period of a recording device.

Abstract: A microstrip antenna structure is provided wherein a plurality of relatively narrow elements, resonant in their longer dimensions, are organized into two staggered or offset sets of interleaved elements with each set being fed from opposite sides of the structure through a corporate microstrip feed line from a common feed point. The aligned radiating ends of the two offset sets of elements simulate four line sources of radiation. The preferred embodiment produces an efficient end-fire radiation pattern from this relatively compact structure which may, in turn, constitute an individual end-fire radiator in a larger array structure.
