Abstract: A method of evaluating a surface is presented that includes imaging the surface, with an imaging system. Imaging includes providing a camera of the imaging system proximate the surface. Imaging also includes causing the imaging system and the surface to move relative to each other, such that a distance between the imaging system and the surface is substantially maintained. Imaging also includes capturing image data of the surface. The image data is captured in a near dark field mode or a dark field image mode. The method also includes analyzing the image data and detecting a topography and/or appearance of the surface. The method also includes generating an evaluation regarding the surface based on the detected topography and/or surface appearance.

Abstract: An article is described comprising a foam substrate comprising: a thermoplastic composition comprising polyurethane, a copolymer of ethylene and a polar comonomer, or a combination thereof; and expanded microspheres; and wherein the article is a medical tape, bandage or wrap. Also describes are methods of use, methods of making a foam article, foam substrates comprising a pressure sensitive adhesive layer disposed on a outermost major surface of the foam substrate, and foam compositions.

Abstract: Backing films for adhesive tapes are presented, as well as adhesive tapes comprising such backing films, which may include tapes used in construction such as seam sealing tapes, roofing tapes, and flashing tapes. The backing film comprises a core layer, a first skin layer, and optionally a second skin layer, where the backing film has a coefficient of thermal expansion of less than 90 ppm/° C. measured in at least one direction within the plane of the film, and, in some embodiments, a Young's modulus of less than 550 MPa as measured in at least one direction. In some embodiments, the backing film has a coefficient of thermal expansion of not more than 91.8 ppm/° C. and a Young's modulus of not more than 540 MPa as measured in any direction within the plane of the film. In some embodiments, the core layer comprises a polyolefin, and skin layers comprise a thermoplastic elastomer.

Abstract: An article has first and second substrates with a spacer between them. The spacer includes beams connecting a plurality of walls, with openings between the beams. The plurality of walls includes multiple first, second, and third portions. The first and second portions are not parallel and have top and bottom edges that define a height of the wall and contact the first and second substrates, respectively. The third portions have top edges continuous with the top edges of the first and second portions but a smaller height than the height of the wall. At a given plane intersecting a first or second portion and perpendicular to the top and bottom edges, the thickness of at the top edge is plus or minus ten percent of the thickness at the bottom edge. The third portions are connected with some of the beams connecting the walls.

Abstract: A method and system for converting a single-use liner lined bottom-mix mixing vessel to a single-use liner lined top-mix missing vessel. A bottom mount magnetic impeller drive is replaced by a top mounted impeller drive. A support frame is placed on an upper portion of the mixing vessel and has an articulated joint supporting a motor drive assembly. A top-mix single-use liner is inserted into the mixing vessel. An impeller drive shaft is inserted through a rotary hub seal in the liner to drive an internal impeller. The rotary hub seal is located by a hub lock assembly attached to the motor drive assembly.

Abstract: An optical medium, such as fiber, is tapped to provide an antenna port wherever radio service coverage is desired. Each antenna port is a bi-directional remote unit that receives a digital optical signal from a host unit and transforms the signal to a radio frequency signal for transmission by the remote unit. The remote unit receives radio frequency signals that are converted to digital signals and summed with signals from other remote units and converted to an optical signal for transmission to the host unit.
