Abstract: This device may be used for attaching accommodating resistance devices to a barbell, such as resistance bands or chains. The device is designed to attach to a barbell by sliding it onto the sleeve of a barbell, in the same way that weight plates slide onto the sleeves of the barbell. Once the device is installed on a barbell, the user is able to easily change resistance bands or add/subtract other weights by hanging them from a peg and/or holes in the device. The device may be used for any lift or lifts, but is especially suited to powerlifting movements such as squat, bench press, and deadlift.

Once the device is installed on a barbell, the user is able to easily change resistance bands or add/subtract other weights by means of attachment such as a peg and/or points on the device.

Abstract: A printer includes a table configured to hold a substrate, an ink jet dispenser carried by a print head and configured to jet UV-curable ink onto the substrate in a target region, and a UV curing system configured to emit UV irradiance in a radiation field that covers the target region and provides sufficient intensity to at least pin the UV-curable ink in the target region.

Abstract: A printer includes a substrate and at least one print head. The at least one print head is movable in a print direction. The print head includes an ink jet dispenser configured to jet UV-curable ink toward the substrate in a target region. The at least one print head further includes a UV curing system behind the ink jet dispenser in a following direction opposite the print direction. The UV curing system is configured to emit UV irradiance in a radiation field that covers the target region and provides sufficient intensity to at least pin the UV-curable ink in the target region.

Abstract: Novel fatty acid monomers and methods for their synthesis are provided for use in polymerization reactions. Fatty acid monomers are employed as reactive diluents in the polymerization of vinyl esters and polyesters for one or more purposes selected from improving the fracture resistance, lowering the processing viscosity and reducing the volatile organic compounds present in the polymerization mixture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition and method for fabricating composite resins that produce either reduced or zero volatile organic compound (VOC) and zero hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. The non-volatile reactive diluents of the composite resin, fatty acid monomers, enhance the stability, shelf-life, flexibility and strength of the composite resin. The resins incorporating fatty acid monomers may be used to repair military equipment or for any commercial repair purposes.

Abstract: Multi-modal vinyl ester resins having one or more of good fracture toughness, good processing viscosity, and low volatile organic compound emissions are provided. The multi-modal vinyl ester resins are the reaction product of a liquid or crystalline epoxy and an amorphous, solid epoxy, as determined at 25° C., with a vinyl carboxylic acid. The multi-modal vinyl ester resins may contain a reactive diluent, though generally, lower reactive diluent contents are required for such resins than for similar, commercially available vinyl ester resins.
