  • Publication number: 20220153633
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for manufacturing glass sheets with diffuse finish and the resulting glass sheet by this process. The glass sheet is subjected to a series of alternate immersions in acidic solutions and alkaline solutions to remove impurities and waste and to generate a diffuse finish on both sides of the glass sheet. The process generates in the glass sheet in at least one side, a diffuse surface with a peak to valley roughness (Rt) of between 5.8343 ?m and 9.3790 ?m; an average roughness (Ra) value between 0.8020 ?m and 0.9538 ?m; an RMS roughness between 0.9653 ?m and 1.1917 ?m; a solar transmission between 84.8% and 46.50%; a solar reflection between 7.4 and 4.4%; a light transmission between 88.5% and 67.70%; a reflection of light between 6.50% and 5.20%; and UV transmission between 35.60% and 70.20%.

  • Publication number: 20200346224
    Abstract: The object of this invention is to provide a method of mineral flotation using bioreagents extracted from Gram positive bacteria Rhodococcus opacus and Rhodococcus erythropolis. In this sense, mineral floatability was evaluated using bioreagent extracted from Gram positive bacteria to determine its potential as an alternative to synthetic reagents and also an alternative to the use of microorganisms themselves (biomass).

  • Patent number: 6164443
    Abstract: A new tobacco wrapping paper for allowing a person to roll their own cigars. The inventive device includes a plurality of tobacco sheets of wrapping paper. The tobacco sheets of wrapping paper are comprised of a blend of tobacco and pulp products. The tobacco sheets each have a generally rectangular configuration defined by opposed long edges and opposed short edges. Each of the tobacco sheets have a layer of adhesive disposed thereon inwardly of one of the opposed long edges thereof. A package is dimensioned for containing the plurality of tobacco sheets therein.
