Abstract: A cured concrete and stone bore working tool and method of forming radially oriented discontinuities in a bore or perforation formed in a cured concrete or stone material such that, after use or application of the tool, the perforation formed in the cured concrete or stone material is configured to provide a non-planar adhesive interface and isolate a properly sized anchor or fastener from direct contact with the wall of the bore. Fasteners or anchors adhesively secured in bores previously treated with the bore treating tool exhibit improved creep failure performance as compared to fasteners adhesively secured to untreated bores.

Abstract: A dust collection assembly for a computer numerical control (CNC) cutting machine includes an adapter configured to couple to an arm of the CNC cutting machine and a head telescopically coupled to the adapter by a plurality of nested members. The CNC cutting machine includes the arm supporting a spindle and a tool holder coupled for co-rotation with the spindle. Each of the plurality of nested members are collapsible relative to each other. The head is movable between an extended position in which the nested members are configured to surround the tool holder and a tool bit, and a retracted position in which at least some of the nested members are telescopically received in the adapter. The head defines an inlet fluidly connected to the plurality of nested members when the head is at least in the extended position. The inlet is configured to fluidly connect to a vacuum.

Abstract: Substituted benzo[f]imidazo[1,5-?][1,4]diazepines of formula (I?) target alpha-4 and alpha-5 GABAA receptors for use in the treatment of airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation in asthma. Compounds selectively partition to the peripheral compartment and have reduced CNS effects.

Abstract: A coating composition comprises a functionalized epoxy resin and a fluoroalkyl-modified particle, such as activated carbon or silica. The functionalized epoxy resin is a ternary polymer composition comprising one or more epoxy resin moieties linked to a polyethylene backbone through an oxygen atom, fluoroalkyl(poly)propionyl groups being grafted to the polyethylene backbone. The coating compositions have superhydrophobic properties useful for self-cleaning surfaces and bubble release from sensors.
