Abstract: Container assemblies including an insulated cap for sealing the mouth of the container, the insulated cap including an outer shell, an insulation block defining a plurality of elongate voids disposed at least partially within the outer shell, a securing element configured to secure the cap to the container, and a sealing member configured to form a seal between the insulated cap and the container when the insulated cap is secured to the container by the securing element.

Abstract: Metal-walled vacuum flasks including tin phosphorus oxide sealing glass, and methods of sealing an exhaust aperture for a metal-walled vacuum flask, including disposing a tin phosphorus oxide sealing glass frit adjacent the exhaust aperture, applying a vacuum to the metal-walled vacuum flask; and raising a temperature of the sealing glass frit under the vacuum sufficiently that the sealing glass flows and seals the exhaust aperture.

Abstract: An embodiment of a cap for a bottle may comprise a body and nozzle. The body may include an annular wall, an aperture configured to receive a nozzle, and a plug rigidly attached within the aperture. The nozzle may be movable between a retracted position in which fluid cannot pass between plug and nozzle, and an extended position in which fluid can pass between plug and nozzle. The nozzle may include an inner wall and an outer wall. The outer wall may have at least one longitudinal recess. The longitudinal recess may allow selective passage of air. The longitudinal recess may allow air to flow through the recess and into the bottle when the nozzle is in the extended position, and is contained within the aperture and is thus configured to prevent air from flowing through the recess and into the bottle when the nozzle is in the retracted position.

Abstract: This is a process for the production of specialty electric steel, particularly grain oriented electrical steel, and more particularly, grain oriented silicon electrical steel. The steel can be formed starting from a thin slab. The process can relate to a product formation route which enables efficient production with better yield and wider process control tolerance. The method can be employed for producing specialty electrical steel utilizes cheaper inputs, less energy, combines and overlaps production process steps, improves yields and product uniformity. This can be accomplished by making it more tolerant to a wider range of process parameters.

Abstract: A martensitic alloy in which the ASTM grain size number is at least 5, including (wt. %) up to about 0.5% C, at least about 5% Cr, at least about 0.5% Ni, up to about 15% Co, up to about 8% Cu, up to about 8% Mn, up to about 4% Si, up to about 6% (Mo+W), up to about 1.5% Ti, up to about 3% V, up to about 0.5% Al, and at least about 40% Fe.

Abstract: An iron based, fine-grained, martensitic stainless steel essentially free of delta ferrite has a nominal composition of (wt. %): 0.05<C<0.15; 7.5<Cr<15; 2<Ni<5; Co<4; Cu<1.2; Mn<5; Si<1; (Mo+W)<4; 0.01<Ti<0.75; 0.135<(1.17Ti+0.6Zr+0.31Ta+0.31Hf)<1; V<2; Nb<1; N<0.02; Al<0.2; Al and Si both present such that (Al+Si)>0.01; B<0.1; P<0.1; S<0.03; and the balance essentially iron and impurities. This steel is different from other martensitic stainless steels because thermal mechanical treatment is used to refine the grains and precipitate a relatively uniform dispersion of fine, coarsening-resistant, MX-type particles. The steel combines high strength and impact toughness with good corrosion resistance.
