  • Detection chamber with variable volume
    Patent number: 8401623
    Abstract: The invention proposes a detection chamber (5) comprising a fluid-tight measurement volume (20) the size of which can be varied using a movable wall portion (15). Such a detection chamber (5) allows compression of the object to be imaged as well as the use of a matching medium to fill the space inside the measurement volume (20) not filled by the object to be imaged.
    Type: Grant

  • Multilayered packaging for greasy products
    Patent number: 7244505
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multilayered packaging for greasy products or part of said packaging, comprising a carrier layer made of a polymer material as main component and at least one layer placed on said carrier layer that does not form the outer side of the packaging, said layer containing a starch derivative as main component. The invention is characterized in the starch derivative is a starch derivative modified with a C2–C6-alkylene oxide. The invention also relates to the use of a C2–C6-alkylene oxide derivatized starch as main component of a layer of a multilayered packaging, which is placed on a carrier layer made of a polymer material in said packaging with the aim of rendering said multilayered packaging grease-tight.

  • Foils and coatings
    Patent number: 6214452
    Abstract: The invention relates to a biodegradable foil made from a low salt content hydroxypropylether solution of a starch containing at least 70% amylose having a median molecular weight from between about 105 to about 2×107, a polydispersity from about 2 to about 8, a degree of substitution from about 0.1 to about 0.5, and a substantially equal substituent distribution between C2/C3 and C6 bond sites in a glucose molecule and a density of about 1.3 g/cm3. The foil is of a thickness between about 20 &mgr;m and 200 &mgr;m and has a light transmissivity, at light of a wavelength of about 560 nm of in excess of 80%. The foil is especially suitable for printing, writing and deep drawing as well as for projection slides.
