Abstract: Flexible ceramic composite materials that include a polymer and silica aerogel disposed within the polymer are disclosed. The materials have extremely low thermal conductivity and excellent thermal stability and can be used to form seals, gaskets, and insulation for a variety of applications.
Abstract: An optically clear biofouling resistant coating compositions specially formulated for very high light transmission and more particularly coating compositions which can be applied to marine instruments and sensors. The compositions provide a biofouling resistant coating on the surface of the marine instruments and sensors which prevents underwater organisms from adhering and growing on the surfaces of the structures over a long period of time.

Abstract: The cathode collector bar end portion extending through a window in a sidewall of an electrolytic cell for refining aluminum is snugly received in a central opening of a seal assembly. Such seal assembly maintains a hermetic seal preventing ingress of air through the sidewall window while permitting longitudinal (horizontal) movement of the collector bar and also movement in a vertical plane (side to side, or up and down, or diagonally) which can be caused by changing heat conditions inside the cell.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing neon and similar signs. The method includes a direct bending of glass tubing over a drawing which is protected by a translucent heat resistant sheet. The sheet and process for its production are also described.
