Abstract: The invention relates to polymers which are crosslinkable under the action of light and contain side groups of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.3 is preferably chlorine and R, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are, for example, H or --CH.sub.3. The proportion of these groups in the polymers is preferably 20 to 100%. Because of their high sensitivity to light, these polymers are suitable for photographic applications.

Abstract: Photocrosslinkable polymers which have a mean molecular weight of not less than 5,000 and contain, in side chains, thioxanthone groupings of the formula ##STR1## and, in side chains, imidyl groupings of the formula ##STR2## in which X, Y, Z, n, G.sub.1 and G.sub.2 are as defined in the patent claim, are suitable for the production of highly light-sensitive image materials, for the production of printing plates for the offset printing process and in particular as so-called photoresists for the production of printed circuits. The thioxanthone groupings (I) act as sensitizers for the photocrosslinkable groups of the polymer, so that it is not necessary to add further sensitizers.

Abstract: The specification discloses a two-piece twist apart filter housing adapted to be interposed in a conduit supplying or receiving air or other medium from a device, wherein the two parts of the housing can be twisted apart to permit replacement of the various types of filter media without detaching either end of the filter housing from said conduit. There are also disclosed particular filter assemblies utilizing said filter housing wherein there is provided a particulate filter, a coalescing filter, and an odor filter assembly which can easily be removed and replaced when needed without removing the filter housing from the supply line.

Abstract: The photo-crosslinkable polymers according to the invention have azidophthalimidyl side groups of the formula I ##STR1## in which Y is a divalent organic radical. These polymers are prepared either by introduction of the azidophthalimidyl group into an existing polymer chain or by synthesis of polymer chains from monomers which already contain the azidophthalimidyl group.Compared to corresponding photosensitive polymers of the prior art, these novel polymers have the advantages that they are even more photosensitive and that they also absorb in the long wavelength UV region (at wavelengths above 320 nm).

Abstract: The specification discloses a novel Coalescing Demister having, depending on the direction of air flow, an inner or outer prefilter-precoalescer subassembly consisting of one or more layers of glass fiber cloth sandwiched between two screen-type retainers, and an inner or outer coalescing subassembly consisting of an inner and outer perforated retainer having a formed glass fiber coalescing media formed there between, together with a layer of synthetic cloth to act as an anti-channeling layer, if desired. The prefilter-precoalescer subassembly, and the coalescing subassembly with drain and anti-migration layers are potted between two end caps with suitable openings therein for the normal oil scavenging tubes.

Abstract: The specification discloses a novel composite coalescing filter tube and the method of making the same. In contrast to previous coalescing filters, which had layers of filter material sandwiched between relatively rigid support members, the present invention provides for a completely unitary coalescing filter tube wherein the various layers of the filter are successively vacuum formed one over the other on a forming fixture which is submerged in an appropriate glass fiber slurry mix, with the various layers being air dried, epoxy dipped, and cured as needed for the particular application. Since, during the vacuum forming process, glass fibers from one layer will interlock with glass fibers from the previously formed layer, a completely unitary coalescing filter tube is formed, preventing the problems of filter layer separation, channeling, pressure collapse and vibration damage which have occurred in past coalescing filters.
