Abstract: A support for sonographers provides a path of force transmission from an ultrasound probe to the sonographer's upper arm bypassing the wrist, and thus reducing wrist injuries that can come from the need to tightly grip and restrain an ultrasound probe for long periods of time.

Abstract: A wrap-packaging film having differential cling is provided by a film laminate, said film laminate comprising at least two layers,at least one of which layers is an outer reverse layer comprising a linear very low density ethylene copolymer (LVLDPE) having a critical density of less than about 0.915 g/cc which contains a tackifier in an amount sufficient to impart thereto an effective level of cling properties,at least one of which layers comprises an obverse layer of an olefin polymer or copolymer, such as a linear low density ethylene copolymer (LLDPE) which has a critical density of not less than 0.916 g/cc which has little or no cling,and wherein the difference in density between the reverse layer and the obverse layer is at least about 0.004 g/cc,the said differential cling properties being manifested in the higher level of cling of the LVLDPE reverse layer as compared to that of the obverse layer.

Abstract: Improved injection-molded LLDPE articles, especially those having a wall thickness in the range of about 0.15 mm to as much as 1.5 mm, are prepared using an LLDPE containing a sufficient amount of at least one C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 1-alkene copolymerized with the ethylene to provide a density in the range of 0.91 to 0.945 g/cc, a melt flwo rate in the range of 60 to 200 g/10 minutes, and an I.sub.10 /I.sub.2 ratio of 7.2 to about 18. Articles such as lids and containers are prepared having improved properties.
