Abstract: Removable devices and systems for operating the four wheel drive (4WD) system of a tow vehicle having an electronically controllable part time 4WD system including a selectable 4WD low range mode are described. The removable device may comprise a first interface for coupling the removable device to a selector, the selector providing an indication of a desired operating mode for the 4WD system; a second interface for coupling the removable device to a controller-area network bus of the tow vehicle; a memory storing vehicle control codes; and at least one controller communicatively coupled to both the first interface and the second interface. The removable device, and system, may allow a vehicle operator to operate the tow vehicle in two-wheel drive low range mode.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a composition comprising a polymer substrate having free volume and/or a porous surface; and an inorganic film layer comprising a metal oxide or nitride at least partially covering the polymer substrate.

Abstract: Inorganic materials are deposited onto organic polymers using ALD methods. Ultrathin, conformal coatings of the inorganic materials can be made in this manner. The coated organic polymers can be used as barrier materials, as nanocomposites, as catalyst supports, in semiconductor applications, in coating applications as well as in other applications.

Abstract: The present application is directed to a spray booth comprising a first enclosure for applying spray material and a second enclosure for drying spray material. An exhaust system is in fluid connection with the first and second enclosures. A fire suppression system is in fluid connection with at least one component chosen from the first enclosure, the second enclosure and the exhaust system. A processor is in data communication with at least one component chosen from the spray enclosure, the drying enclosure, the exhaust system and the fire suppression system.

Abstract: Particles have an ultrathin, conformal coating are made using atomic layer deposition methods. The base particles include ceramic and metallic materials. The coatings can also be ceramic or metal materials that can be deposited in a binary reaction sequence. The coated particles are useful as fillers for electronic packaging applications, for making ceramic or cermet parts, as supported catalysts, as well as other applications.

Abstract: A method of testing electrical circuits on a substrate for detecting shorts and opens. A plurality of electrical networks in which each network has one or more nodes are tested by selectively electrically charging certain nodes and selectively testing other nodes for detecting shorts and opens between the nodes. The method of testing allows various levels of testing to be performed for detecting more and greater different kinds of possible defects.
