Abstract: The invention relates to methods of treating COVID-19 in a patient by administering therapeutically effective amounts of certain SARS-CoV-2 inhibitor compounds or pharmaceutical compositions containing them to a patient in need thereof.

Abstract: Ceramic slurries may include ceramic particles, a photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder, and a photoinitiator. The photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder may include a photoreactive organic resin component, a photoreactive siloxane component, and one or more photostable siloxane components. Methods of forming a ceramic part may include curing a portion of a ceramic slurry by exposing the portion of the ceramic slurry to light to form a green ceramic part, and partially firing the green ceramic part to form a brown ceramic part. The brown ceramic part may be sintered at or above a sintering temperature of the ceramic particles to form a ceramic part, wherein sintering includes heating the brown ceramic part to a sufficient temperature to promote reaction bonding that converts silica from the photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder into silicates that bond with the ceramic particles.

Abstract: A ceramic slurry for forming a ceramic article includes a binder, a first plurality of ceramic particles having a first morphology, a second plurality of ceramic particles having a second morphology that is different from the first morphology; and a photoinitiator. A method for using this slurry for fabricating ceramic articles is presented as well.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of altering chemical properties of an in-process resin used with a 3D printing apparatus. The method includes monitoring the in-process resin using an imaging spectrometer, comparing the in-process resin and a model using one or more spectrums from the imaging spectrometer, and diluting the in-process resin with a diluting resin.

Abstract: A data cable is provided herewith, along with related methods. The disclosed data cables may meet the requirements for a UL 2196 flame test, including subsequent hose stream test. The disclosed data cables include two or more pairs of conductors wrapped with a flame-retardant tape and surrounded by low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) thermoset insulation. A shield may surround the conductor pairs and a non-halogen flame retardant polyolefin may surround the shield. In certain embodiments, the pairs of conductors present in the cable may have different lay lengths.

Abstract: A method of making a component of an electric machine using an additive manufacturing process is disclosed. The method includes forming a first lamina of a conductive material, building a first layer of a second material on a first surface of the first lamina, treating the second material on the first surface of the first lamina to define a first insulative layer, and building on the first insulative layer a second lamina of a conductive material. The steps can be repeated iteratively until a desired thickness or number of layers is reached.
