Abstract: An energy absorption device for a bumper of a motor vehicle has a first deformation element on the front side of the bumper. The first deformation element is a foam shaped part which extends over the width of the bumper and has a density of from 20 to 50 g/l. At least one second deformation element, with a density which is at least 50 g/l higher than the first deformation element, is inserted into the first deformation element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a waterborne paint composition, comprising a non-film-forming poly(styrene acrylate) having a glass transition temperature (TG) of at least 80° C., a poly(styrene acrylate) resin having a weight average molecular weight (MW) of up to 20 000 g/mol, and water. Such a paint composition is suitable as an overprint varnish or primer for substrates such as paper, paperboard and sheets. Due to its surface structure having micro-cracks the applied paint film can advantageously be printed by inkjet printing.

Abstract: Beams of monoenergetic protons or other charged ions are passed through the living human body to detect abnormalities and obstructions in body tissue, which abnormalities and obstructions are visualized as density variations in the particle image emerging from the body part under investigation. The particles used are preferably protons having an energy of 100 to 300 MeV, more especially 200 to 300 MeV. The method is of use in detecting inter alia tumors, blood clots, infarcts, soft tissue lesions and multiple sclerosis in patients without exposure to high radiation dosages.
