Abstract: Goldcatalyst Goldcatalyst comprising gold on a support of ceria or ceria-manganese oxide is used for the oxidation of CO in a H2 stream.

Abstract: A dispersion of pyrogenically produced cerium oxide, which does not contain any particles larger than 1 ?m, is produced by dispersing a pyrogenically produced cerium oxide in water by means of a dissolver, centrifuging it, separating the supernatant from the bottom product, and again dispersing the supernatant by means of ultrasound. The dispersion can be used for chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP).

Abstract: The invention relates to a power & free conveyor which comprises a free rail (3) and a power chain (1) that follows said free rail (3), to a large extent, in a parallel manner. A transport carriage (4) provided with a front runner (5) and a rear runner (6) are arranged on the free rail (3). The front runner (5) and the rear runner (6) each comprise a carrier (11, 14) that can pivot between two positions. In an area of the movement path of the transport carriage (4), the course of the power chain (1) deviates from that of the free rail (3) so that the transport carriages (4) can no longer be moved via the front runner carrier (1) thereof. Instead, the transport carriage is pushed by the interaction between a chain carrier (2) and the rear runner carrier (14) that is swung out into a carrying position. The rear runner carrier (14) comprises two stabile positions which can be changed by overcoming a resistance.
