Abstract: Method for operating a block storage arrangement and a block storage arrangement that has multiple container stacking chambers, a loading chamber arranged below the container stacking chambers, and at least one loading vehicle, which includes a travel drive and a lifting drive, that is movable in the loading chamber. The method includes positioning, via the travel drive, the at least one loading vehicle below a preselected container stacking chamber; via the lifting drive, one of storing a container in the container stacking chamber from below or removing a container downwardly from the container stacking chamber; and prior to a person gaining access to at least the loading chamber, placing the block storage arrangement into a secure state by inactivating at least the lifting drive of the loading vehicle.

Abstract: A block storage arrangement and method of operating same. The block storage arrangement includes multiple container stacking compartments; a loading compartment arranged below the container stacking compartments; at least one loading vehicle, which is movable in the loading compartment and with which containers are storable from below into a container stacking compartment and/or removable from below from the container stacking compartment, has an electric drive assembly and an electrically rechargeable battery; and at least one transfer station. An electrical charging device for the battery is arranged in the transfer station.

Abstract: A vacuum lock for a vacuum coating plant comprises a chamber for receiving a substrate carrier, wherein the chamber comprises a first and a second inner surface. A conveyor is configured for conveying the substrate carrier. The vacuum lock comprises a flow channel assembly for evacuating and venting the chamber, the flow channel assembly being configured to cause a gas flow between both the first inner surface and a first substrate carrier surface facing the first inner surface and between the second inner surface and a second substrate carrier surface facing the second inner surface. The substrate carrier can be positioned between the first and the second inner surfaces such that a ratio of a first distance between the first inner surface and the first substrate carrier surface to a length (L) of the substrate carrier is smaller than 0.1, and a ratio of a second distance between the second inner surface and the second substrate carrier surface to a length (L) of the substrate carrier is smaller than 0.1.

Abstract: The invention relates to a particulate curing component for a thermosetting resin, the particulate curing component comprising particles of a solid resin, wherein a curative for the thermosetting resin is dispersed within the particles of solid resin. The invention also relates to methods of forming particulate curing components and compositions comprising particulate curing components.

Abstract: A device for treating substrates by a treating liquid has at least one rotatably supported support roller which a substrate to be treated rests on during operation. The support roller has a hollow cylinder having a porous rigid material which the substrate to be treated rests on during operation. The device is configured to deliver, during operation, treating liquid via the interior of the hollow cylinder of the at least one support roller through the porous rigid material to the external surface of the hollow cylinder in order to treat at least one surface of the substrate by the treating liquid. The device is configured to treat several substrates in the form of plate-shaped separate wafers arranged one behind the other and/or next to one another in the device, by the treating liquid and to transport the substrates in a transport plane during the treatment.

Abstract: Epoxy acrylates of the formulae (A), (B) and epoxy acrylate mixtures comprising at least one of the compounds (A) or (B) are novel and find use in coating materials or adhesives featuring high UV stability

Abstract: A container assembly for a substance to be applied is provided that includes a injector housing, an application tip, and a closure cap. The application tip and the closure cap are alternatively removably securable to the outlet end of the injector housing in a substantially fluid tight disposition. A first indicia is associated with the injector housing and a second indicia is associated with each of the application tip and the closure cap. The second indicia has an identity correspondence with the first indicia such that the presence of both the first indicia on the injector housing and the second indicia on the respective one of the application tip and the closure cap secured to the outlet end of the injector housing confirms that only the appropriate application tip or the appropriate closure cap has been secured to the injector housing.
