Abstract: A heat spreading and insulating material using densified foam is provided that has a heat spreading layer that is adhered to an insulating layer. The material is designed to be used with mobile devices that generate heat adjacent to heat sensitive components. The insulating layer is formed from a compressed layer of polyimide foam to increase its density. The polyimide foam retains a significant amount of insulating properties through the densification process. In some embodiments, an EMI shielding layer is added to improve electrical properties of the device. The heat spreading layer may be a graphite material with heat conducting properties that preferentially conduct heat in-plane but can also be metal foil or other isotropic heat conducting material. The material may also include pressure sensitive layers to permanently apply the material to the mobile device.

Abstract: This invention relates to an improvement in a process for preparing a product predominant in decabromodiphenylethane. In the improved process the diphenylethane is reacted with bromine in the presence of bromination catalyst in a reaction vessel by feeding diphenylethane to the reaction vessel below the liquid level of bromine in the reaction vessel. The improvement comprises contacting diphenylethane, bromine, and catalyst at a rate sufficient to obtain a diphenylethane predominant product having enhanced color and particle size.

Abstract: A process for obtaining an improved yield of hexabromocyclododecane by utilizing a solvent in the reaction mass containing a minor amount of water.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for producing a product which is predominant in decabromodiphenyl alkane.

Abstract: A process for the dehydrohalogenation of a feed comprised of an admixture of primary, secondary and tertiary alkylhalides to selectively convert the secondary and tertiary alkylhalides of the admixture to olefins by dehydrohalogenation, with minimal conversion, if any, of the primary alkylhalides. The reaction, which is particularly applicable to the selective dehydrobromination of an admixture of primary, secondary and tertiary alkylbromides, is carried out in a distillation-reaction zone, column, or distillation-reactor, to simultaneously (i) convert the secondary and tertiary alkylbromides to olefins and hydrogen bromide, and (ii) separate the olefins and hydrogen bromide, (iii) and the primary alkyl bromides, from the reaction mixture.
