Abstract: A computer aided design application modifies a CAD drawing having one or more electrical components by optimizing a plurality of circuits and associated panels, and assigning circuit and panel identifiers to each component for producing an engineering drawing. Further such identified components can be placed in home run groups, implementing shortest path calculations for various wire types and using neutral wires sharing options for producing an engineering drawing illustrating the home run grouping and identifiers, panel schedules and complete bills of materials.

Abstract: A new and novel linear, regio-regular vicinal functionalized polymer methods of forming the same are described. The polymer has a linear hydrocarbon polymer backbone with vicinal functional groups having oxygen and/or nitrogen atom containing groups, such as hydroxy, carboxylic acid or ester, carbonyl acetate, amide, nitrile and the like, pendent from the polymer backbone chain in a regio-regular manner.

Abstract: The subject invention is directed to new and novel copolymers having long chain branches formed from ethylene and at least one vinyl alicyclic monomer, to solution polymerization using certain unstrained bridged metallocene catalyst which has been found capable of forming said copolymers and to packaging material formed therefrom.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to Packaging Materials and Packaging Articles having a structure composed of a substantially linear, regio-regular functionalized hydrocarbon polymer having C4-C12 hydrocarbon polymer repeating units wherein each unit has at least one functional group uniformly pendent therefrom.

Abstract: 'An improvement is described in the process of preparing polymethylene polyphenyl polyamines by condensing aniline and formaldehyde in the presence of an acid catalyst. The improvement entails adding a minor proportion of a polyamine mixture comprising di(aminophenyl)methanes and oligomeric polymethylene polyphenyl polyamines, collectively known as polymethylene polyphenyl polyamines or polymeric MDA, to an intermediate stage of the condensation reaction where the various intermediately formed aminobenzylamines are present. The process lends itself to either a batch or continuous method for preparing the polyamines.The improvement is actually observed in the polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanates derived from the polyamines which have substantially reduced color over those polyisocyanates prepared from polyamines prepared via a prior art method. Such color improvements invariably carry over to polyurethane products derived therefrom.

Abstract: Addition of controlled amounts of water to the reaction mixture produced by phosgenation of a mixture of polymethylene polyphenyl polyamines (and like polyamines produced by condensation of formaldehyde and aromatic amines) prior to complete removal of excess phosgene gives rise to the corresponding polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanates having significantly improved properties. Not only is the color of the product, and of polyurethane foams prepared therefrom, significantly lighter but the proportion of higher molecular weight products is significantly less and the viscosity is less. No undesirable by-products are introduced into the polyisocyanate as a result of the process.
