  • Publication number: 20180141001
    Abstract: The main object of the present invention is to provide a new method for preparing the copper-containing silicoaluminate form of the AEI zeolite structure by means of a direct synthesis methodology. This new process involves combining a organometallic copper-complex with an additional organic molecule capable of directing the crystallisation of the silicoaluminate form of the AEI zeolite structure as organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs).

  • Publication number: 20180093895
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new process for synthesising the silicoaluminate form of the AEI zeolite structure based on the use of another zeolite, zeolite Y, as the only source of silicon and aluminum, in order to obtain high synthesis yields (greater than 80%) in the absence of any other source of silicon, phosphine-derivedcationsand fluoride anions in the synthesis medium. The N,N-dimethyl-3,5-dimethylpiperidinium cation may be used as the OSDA, and the FAU crystal structure is transformed into the AEI crystal structure with high yields. It also discloses the preparation of catalysts based on the silicoaluminate form of the AEI crystal structure, wherein Cu atoms have been introduced, and the subsequent application thereof as a catalyst, preferably in the SCR of NOx.

  • Patent number: 9698006
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system (100) for aligning a dispensing apparatus (110) utilized within a semiconductor deposition chamber (102). A stationary reference apparatus (106) is disposed along the bottom of the deposition chamber. A self-alignment support system (122), comprising one or more support components (124), is intercoupled between the dispensing apparatus and a deposition system exterior component (112). The self-alignment support system is adapted to facilitate and secure repositioning of the dispensing apparatus responsive to pressure applied to the dispensing surface (114) thereof. A non-yielding offset component (126) is placed upon a first surface (108) of the stationary reference apparatus. The dispensing surface of the dispensing apparatus is engaged with the offset component, and pressure is applied to the dispensing apparatus via the offset component until a desired alignment is achieved.

  • Publication number: 20160226836
    Abstract: Systems and methods may be provided for constructing and deconstructing encoded messages. A method for constructing an encoded message comprising: providing an unencoded message having one or more unencoded characters; identifying one or more suitable human-readable phrases indexed from one or more codebooks wherein characters from extended character sets are mapped to standard characters having similar appearances to the characters from the extended character sets to create one or more human-readable phrases; selecting a suitable human-readable phrase from the one or more codebooks; and generating an encoded message by mapping the unique and repeating characters of the unencoded messages to the extended character set provided by the selected human-readable phrase. Corresponding systems, and computer system products may be provided.

  • Patent number: 9386809
    Abstract: A vest incorporating a pull element operatively connected to a plurality of tether lines extending along pathways to panel connection points at which front and rear panels of the vest are adjoined. When the pull element is extended away from the vest, the tether lines are placed into tension thereby causing the connection assemblies to be disengaged and the front and rear panels of the vest can fall away from one another.
