Abstract: Compressed polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foams useful as support materials for vacuum insulation units are produced by compressing an open-cell rigid polyurethane or polyisocyanurate to 5-95% of its original volume after 80-200% of the fiber time.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sheet metal panel for a roof covering or wall cladding, having two cover sheets (1, 2) and an intermediate layer (11) of thermal insulating material. Applied to the cover plate (2) of the panels forming the outside is a plane photovoltaic element (17, 18) which has electric connecting cables (21, 22) and which takes the form of a flexible laminate having a cold-bonding adhesive (19, 20) on its rear side and whose electric connecting cables (21, 22) extend through bores (23) in the sheet metal panel, which are sealed with respect to physical constructional demands.

Abstract: Method for monitoring insulin medication in which blood sugar values are determined before and after a meal. The difference between these measured values is plotted against a quotient calculated from the bread units ingested during the meal and the insulin units used to compensate for these bread units. Displaying many such points on a graph provides criteria for improving the insulin medication.

Abstract: A propellant charge arrangement for barrel-weapons or ballistic drives comprises a conventional core charge having an ignition system and a consolidated propellant surrounding the core charge and having its own high electrical energy ignition system which can be controlled in a time-delayed manner after triggering the core charge ignition system. The structure and arrangement of the consolidated propellant and its ignition system are chosen such that, during combustion of the core charge, the consolidated propellant disintegrates into fragments of essentially uniform geometry in response to triggering of its associated ignition system, wherein the fragments are accelerated into the gas volume generated during combustion of the core charge.

Abstract: A vacuum panel composed of two foam slabs positioned one on top of the other which slabs are covered with a film in which the panel has been evacuated and sealed with a gas-tight seal. One of the foam slabs is an open-pored polystyrene foam. The other foam slab is an open-pored polyurethane foam. These vacuum insulating panels are useful for the production of insulating elements that are used as external walls in refrigerators.

Abstract: An apparatus is described which consists of a rigid plate and a vacuum insulation panel, in which the vacuum insulation panel is fixed to the rigid plate by a polyurethane foam applied as a liquid reaction mixture, wherein the vacuum insulation panel contains open-cell rigid plastics foam and/or open-cell rigid plastics foam recyclate. A refrigerated cabinet element containing said apparatus is additionally described.
