Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for determining the thickness of coating layers of a curved surface when examining the surface with terahertz radiation. The method involves measuring detected reflected radiation and applies a correction factor to obtain the thicknesses of the layers. This addresses the problem of compensating for the curvature of the surface when determining coating thickness.

The energy curable ink and coating compositions that include the described polymeric aminoacrylates are well-suited for use in packaging applications where low migration of uncured monomer material after cure is desired, such as in the packaging of foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals, etc.

Abstract: A shelf includes a floor plate, a cam plate, and a first pin joint plate. The cam plate extends away from an upper surface of the floor plate. A top edge of the cam plate is opposite a bottom edge of the cam plate that is mounted to the upper surface and has a concave shape that curves inward toward the upper surface. The first pin joint plate is mounted to the floor plate to extend away from a lower surface of the floor plate. The first pin joint plate is configured to mate with a second pin joint plate mounted to a first wall. The top edge of the cam plate is positioned to abut a tab mounted to the second wall when the floor plate is rotated toward the second wall. The upper surface faces the second wall when the floor plate is rotated toward the second wall.

Abstract: Aqueous binder compositions with reduced rates of salt precipitation are described. The compositions may include a carbohydrate and a sequestrant for sequestering one or more multivalent ions (e.g., Ca2+, Mg2+, Ba2+, Al3+, Fe2+, Fe3+, etc.). The sequestrant reduces a precipitation rate for the multivalent ions from the aqueous binder composition. Methods of reducing salt precipitation from a binder composition are also described. The methods may include the steps of providing an aqueous binder solution having one or more carbohydrates. They may also include adding a sequestrant for one or more multivalent ions to the aqueous binder solution. The sequestrant reduces a precipitation rate for the multivalent ions from the binder composition.
