  • Publication number: 20200207187
    Abstract: A variable transmittance vehicle window may adjust its transmittance in response to readings from an interior light sensor that is positioned to measure intensity of at least one wavelength of light that is a proper subset of the visible spectrum and that has entered the interior of a vehicle comprising the window after passing through the window. If the intensity of light inside the vehicle is too high, the window is darkened; analogously, if the intensity of light inside the vehicle is too low, the window is lightened. Additionally or alternatively, the window may be transitioned to and maintained at an intermediate transmittance that is between the window's maximum and minimum transmittances.

  • Publication number: 20080280060
    Abstract: A process for flow, dip, or curtain coating a plastic panel with a weather resistant coating system of relatively uniform thickness is presented. More specifically, the process includes the step of rotating the plastic panel by about 180 degrees between the application of subsequent coating layers in order to minimize the variation in thickness measured near the top and bottom of the coated panel. The coatings are applied to the plastic panel at a predetermined coating angle (?).

  • Patent number: 5814704
    Abstract: A process for recovering a polyphosphazene polyacid or acid salt obtained by hydrolyzing a polyphosphazene having at least one ester moiety present in at least one substituent group. The polyphosphazene having at least one ester moiety present in at least one substituent group is hydrolyzed with a base in an organic solvent in the presence of water. The water is present in an amount effective to induce the agglomeration of particles of the synthesized polyphosphazene polyacid or acid salt, which enhances the separation of the polyphosphazene polyacid or acid salt from a polymer-free liquid organic phase. The polymer-free liquid organic phase then is separated from the polyphosphazene acid or acid salt, whereby the polyphosphazene acid or acid salt is recovered.

  • Patent number: 5760271
    Abstract: A process for producing a polyorganophosphazene from a polyhalophosphazene. The polyhalophosphazene is reacted with a metal salt of an alkyl ester of hydroxybenzoic acid wherein the metal salt of the alkyl ester of hydroxybenzoic acid is contained in a homogeneous melt solution. The reaction of the polyhalophosphazene with the metal salt of an alkyl ester of hydroxybenzoic acid produces a macromolecular substituted polymer, which is reacted with a base to hydrolyze the polymer and produce the desired polyorganophosphazene product.

  • Patent number: 5707597
    Abstract: A solution which comprises a polyphosphazene solute, such as a polyhalophosphazene solute, and a stabilizing solvent such as diglyme. Such solution enables the polyphosphazene to remain stable for extended periods of time so that such polyhalophosphazenes may be employed for further modification or use.
