  • Publication number: 20140130639
    Abstract: A method reduces carbon dioxide resulting from a steel production process. The carbon dioxide is reacted with an electropositive metal in combustion to produce carbon monoxide. The resultant carbon monoxide is fed back into the steel production process. In this method, the carbon monoxide can be used in a direct reduction method as a reduction gas or can be fed to a blast furnace process. The reacted metal can also be recovered by electrochemical conversion from its oxides or salts. In particular, a form of regenerative energy can be used to recycle the electropositive metal.

  • Publication number: 20140034934
    Abstract: An organic semiconductor component with a hole conductor layer having p-type doping with a superacid salt has greatly improved charged transport and optical properties. Besides increasing the specific conductivity at very low doping concentrations, the doping brings about substantially no negative change in the color impression of the layer for the human eye. The absorbtivity of the hole conductor layer is not increased in the visible wavelength range as a result of the p-type doping with the superacid salt. Deposition from solution and from the gas phase is possible.

  • Patent number: 8614875
    Abstract: An anchor group anchors organic dielectric compounds used in the production of organically based capacitors. The capacitors referred to are those that can be produced in a parallel process on a prepeg or other common printed circuit board substrate without additional metallization on copper. The pre-fabricated capacitor layer can then be built into the printed circuit board, thereby gaining on space and cost for the surface of the printed circuit board.
