Abstract: An impact resistant provided PMMA moulding material according to DE 195 44 563 is process into a surface-hardened film which is highly glossy, essentially free of gel bodies and can be processed in the “in-mould-film-decoration” method. The melted mass is generated by means of an extruder and fed to the inventive glazing rolls via a flexible lip nozzle, said rolls being configured in order to generate an especially high locking pressure in the roll slit. The smoothing rolls are cambered. The films are used for decorating surfaces of high-value thermoplastic moulded parts.

Abstract: A method for determining the concentration of hydrophobic organic particles in the filtrate of a paper stock, wherein the hydrophobic organic particles are marked with a fluorescent dye, said particles are then excited to emit light, the light emitted by the marked particles is detected and the concentration by mass of the particles is determined from the fluorescence intensity, and use of the method for determining the total concentration of hydrophobic organic particles in the filtrate of a paper stock drained on a wire.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining the size distribution of at least two different types of fluorescent or fluorescently stained particles in a sample by radiating light into a stream of singled particles and recording and analyzing both the scattered light and the fluorescent light. A relative particle size distribution for each individual particle type (T.sub.k) is calculated and then the relative particle size distribution for the individual particle types is normalized forming a joint relative particle size distribution of the at least two particle types with respect to one another.

Abstract: A vehicular fuel flow measuring system derives a value for the consumption of fuel by an internal combustion engine operated with fuel from a tank containing a source thereof. The engine has a fuel introduction system with a first fuel pump having a suction input and a discharge output. The discharge output is coupled in fuel supply relationship with the engine for carrying out fuel combustion and recirculation functions. The fuel introduction system includes a first return conduit carrying return fuel for the recirculation function. The first return conduit has a first pressure regulating relief valve disposed therein. A second fuel pump is connectible between the first fuel pump and the fuel rail of the engine. The second fuel pump has a suction inlet and a discharge outlet for discharging pressurized fuel to the fuel rail of the engine. At least one flow measuring meter is connectible between the first fuel pump and the fuel rail of the engine.
