Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of determining polydispersity (PDI) and molecular mass distribution (MMD) of reactive PEG samples using mass spectrometry. More specifically, a mass spectrometry method called GEMMA is used to determine PDI and MMD of PEG samples which provides more accurate measurements for high molecular weight PEG samples than prior known MALDI-TOF analysis.

Abstract: A unique and cost-effective method for producing a multilayer ceramic structure by using a first green film that contains a ceramic material, and the multilayer ceramic structure produced thereby. The method including the steps of: (a) producing at least one porous region in the first green film, the at least one porous region extending from the surface of the first green film; (b) applying a first layer, in sections, to the surface of the first green film, wherein one section of the first layer is located above the at least one porous region produced in step (a); (c) positioning at least one additional green film on the surface of the first green film, to which the first layer has been applied; (d) laminating the first green film and the at least one additional green film to form a green film composite; and (e) sintering the green film composite.

Abstract: In a method for classifying and separating particles in a fluid stream in which the particles are sprayed and electrically charged and deflected in an electrical field one portion of the stream of the charged or ionized particles respectively is introduced into a first separation device operated as an analyzer (4) and is deflected under variation of the applied high voltage or the electric field respectively, whereby particles reach a detector chamber (10) according to separation criteria like, for example charge or particle size. This high voltage and/or field strength corresponding to a species collected in the detector chamber (10) is read and/or stored as a reference value. The particle stream is fed into a separator (5), in which the previously acquired high voltage and/or field strength is applied and particles of the species deflected in the analyzer (4) into the detector chamber (10) are enriched and discharged correspondingly.

Abstract: A gliding bed for a concrete slab comprises a first film and a second film wherein the first film can be brought into contact with a foundation of the concrete bottom slab and the second film can be brought into contact with a bottom side of the concrete slab by pouring concrete onto the second film and which films are tightly connected to each other at edges. In order to minimize friction between the concrete slab and the foundation, at least one gas- and liquid-permeable layer formed from a fleece and/or a textile fabric, a woven fabric or a knitted fabric is provided between the films.
