  • Publication number: 20240089521
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to determine a duration of media presentation based on tuning session duration. Example apparatus a receiver to obtain a first tuning session duration indicative of an amount of time between channel changes of a first media presentation device at a first media presentation location, a presentation session estimator to select a model from storage, the model selected based on a match of the first tuning session duration and a second tuning session duration, the model including a relation between the second tuning session duration and a first presentation session duration of media presented on a second media presentation device at a second media presentation location, and estimate a second presentation session duration of media presented within the first tuning session duration based on the model.

  • Publication number: 20080090086
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dilutable, non-aqueous concentrate and an aqueous dilution used for aqueous delivery of fluorinated oligomeric silanes to a substrate, a method of treating a substrate with the aqueous dilution composition to render it oil and water repellent, and articles having coatings made from the aqueous dilution.

  • Publication number: 20070049646
    Abstract: Described are monomeric fluorochemical surfactants having two perfluoroalkyl sulfonamido segments and two hydrophilic group, which are more efficient and effective in lowering the surface tension of organic solvents and water compared to other C4-based fluorochemical surfactants.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20060147645
    Abstract: Described are perfluoro lower alkyl derived silanes having two perfluoroalkyl groups in close proximity to one another which in an organic solvent are useful in treating siliceous substrates; the compositions may optionally contain an additional non-fluorinated compound in a mixture or condensation product.

  • Publication number: 20060149012
    Abstract: Described are polymeric surfactants which include a fluorinated moiety and a non-fluorinated moiety where the fluorinated moiety contains two perfluoro-lower-alkyl sulfonamido segments in proximity to each other ; the surfactants provide more efficient and effective lowering of the surface tension of liquids and increase of wetting of a coating on a substrate surface.
