Abstract: A method including generating an index comprising (a) question-answer pairs generated based at least in part on a set of ingested source documents and (b) respective location metadata associated with each of the question-answer pairs. The respective location metadata can include a source document identifier of a first ingested source document of the set of ingested source documents and one or more location delimiters indicating a location of target text in the first ingested source document. The target text can correspond to a stored answer of a respective one of the question-answer pairs associated with the respective location metadata. The method also can include receiving a user question from a user. The user question can correspond to a question of a first question-answer pair of the question-answer pairs of the index.

Abstract: A universal pigment preparation including a flocculation-stabilizing medium including (a1) reaction products of di- or polycarboxylic acids or hydroxycarboxylic acids with di- or polyols, and (a2) reaction products of alkylene oxides with alkoxylatable compounds, and at least one pigment. Paints, varnishes, printing inks, coating materials, floor coatings, potting compounds and filling compounds may be made using the universal pigment preparation.

Abstract: A nitrile rubber coupled via bisdihydropyrazole groups is produced by reacting a nitrile rubber which is based on conjugated dienes, ?,?-unsaturated nitriles and optionally further copolymerizable monomers as monomers, may have been hydrogenated and has covalently bonded tetrazole groups with a bifunctional ene compound in which the ene groups can each be reacted with the tetrazole groups to give dihydropyrazole groups.

Abstract: A novel and improved process is provided for producing nitrile rubbers through free-radical polymerization in specific solvent mixtures. The resultant nitrile rubbers can then be subjected to hydrogenation. The process features excellent time-conversion curves.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pump combination comprising a first pump and at least one second pump.
