Abstract: Stainless steel belts having a thickness of about 0.060 inch used for casting sheet materials such as acrylic plastic sheet are refurbished by first grinding the back surface of the belt until no further distortions can be removed and then grinding the mirrored surface of the belt until said mirrored surface is uniformly dull and thereafter polishing the dulled surface to a mirrored finish. During the grinding and polishing, the belt is cooled to avoid local overheating.

Abstract: Insecticidal compositions which comprise an O-ethyl S-n-propyl O-halophenyl phosphorothiolate can be safened by adding to the compositions a safening amount of toxaphene (octochlorocamphene) or DDT. These safened compositions are particularly useful in controlling insects in growing cotton crops.

Abstract: Addition polymers containing a plurality of terminal and/or pendant amine groups in which the nitrogen atom of at least some of such groups is of primary or secondary character, or aldimine or ketimine groups form the main film-forming component in compositions for coating and the like purposes, which also contain a polyfunctional acrylic monomer, such as ethylene glycol diacrylate, with or without monoethylenically unsaturated acrylic ester. Such compositions provide durable films having excellent mechanical and resistance properties even on ambient curing though baking may be used to accelerate the cure. A method of use is also claimed in which the components are mixed in suitable vehicles, e.g.
