Abstract: The present invention is directed to a continuous process for producing a foamable celluloid product by introducing a solid component (comprising nitrocellulose, chemical blowing agent (CBA), stabilizer and alcohol) and a liquid component (comprising camphor and acetone) into a mixer/devolatilizer machine where the chamber is under atmospheric pressure and having significant overhead space. The chamber is comprised of two zones wherein the first zone has a temperature that is less than the second zone and at least one rotor comprising hollow, temperature-controlled arms having a tilted angle affixed to the rotors. The rotors of the mixer/devolatilizer machine act to mix the solid and liquid components under lower shearing forces, lower mechanical stress and longer residence times than those used by twin-screw extruders.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for making combustible foam celluloid munition parts having high aspect ratios, different densities or having an insert embedded into the foam celluloid munition part. The process for making such foam celluloid munition part requires pre-soaking dry particles of celluloid, placing the celluloid particles into a munition part mold, exposing the celluloid particles to high heat and pressure until the celluloid particles expand and fuse into the shape of the mold. Varying the density or the size of the celluloid particles used in the process produces munition parts having different densities. In addition, the placement of inserts into the particles prior to exposure to high heat and pressure produces munition parts having inserts that are useful for identification and tracking of such parts.

Abstract: A wet chemistry method for preparing spherical celluloid beads by mixing a water-based suspension solution and a solvent based celluloid solution that is immiscible in the suspension solution. The two combined solutions create an “oil-in-water” type mixture where the dispersed phase consists of celluloid dissolved in solvent and co-solvent that is suspended in the continuous water phase. Agitation and removal of the solvent and co-solvent mixture produces spherical shaped celluloid beads.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for controlling transmission security of an industrial communication flow based on an SDN architecture. The method comprises: designing a flow security control module in a management controller, performing in-depth parsing on industrial communication flow data, matching the parsing result with each preset industrial rule policy, and executing a control processing operation of the industrial rule policy, to implement transmission control of an industrial communication flow. The management controller comprises an industrial rule policy database used for storing all industrial rule policies set by a user. An SDN switch maintains a structure of a flow table, and an industrial communication flow is forwarded according to the flow table. The flow table comprises a security control identifier used for indicating whether security transmission of this communication flow needs to be controlled.
