Abstract: A computer implemented method of annotating a geometric figure displayed and manipulable in three-dimensional representation on a display of a computer system with a pointer is described. The pointer is also displayed and manipulable in three-dimensional representation on the display. The method associates multimedia functions with the geometric figure. The pointer is positioned to point at an area of the geometric figure using a control device. The geometric figure is displayed in a particular view orientation when the pointer points at the area of the geometric figure. The pointer is then oriented three-dimensionally such that the pointer can point at the area of the geometric figure at a desired angle. The particular view orientation of the geometric figure with the pointer can be preserved such that the particular view orientation of the geometric figure with the pointer can later be retrieved. The pointer can be activated by attaching a marker to the pointer using the control device.

Abstract: The invention is a process of removing metal ion contaminants from an organic solution, especially one having acid labile components. The process comprises modifying a cationic exchange resin by treatment with ammonia or amine and contacting said modified ion exchange resin with an organic solution containing metal ion contaminants. The process is especially useful for treating photoresist compositions.

Abstract: The invention is for a process of removal of ionic contaminants from an organic solution. The process of the invention involves providing a mixed ion exchange resin modified by contact with an ammonium salt of a weak organic acid and contacting said organic solution with said modified exchange resin for a time sufficient to remove ionic impurities therefrom. The invention is useful for removal of ionic contaminants from organic solutions requiring high purity for use.

Abstract: A process for the purification of an organic solution containing an acid labile material. The process comprises contact of the organic solution with a combination of a cation exchange resin and an anion exchange resin. The cation exchange resin has weak acidic groups to reduce attack on the acid labile material within the organic solution. The anion exchange resin preferably has hydroxide exchange groups. The combination of exchange resins yields counter-ions that form water in the solution treated upon contact with the solution with the exchange resin mixture.

Abstract: The invention is for a process of removing anions from an organic solution, especially one having base labile components. The process comprises modifying an anion exchange resin by treatment with a solution of a source of anions less basic than the hydroxyl anion and contacting said modified ion exchange resin with an organic solution containing anions. The process is especially useful for treating photoresist compositions.

Abstract: The invention is for a process of removing organic contaminants and multivalent metal ions from solution. The process comprises chelating multivalent metal ions in an organic solution to be purified and contacting the solution with activated carbon. The process is especially useful for removal of multivalent metal ions from a solution of photoresist components.

Abstract: A paint system utilizes a paint pumping station comprising a plurality of small paint pots, one for each color inventoried in the system. A pump is provided for each paint pot and is connected through a like plurality of lines to color changers at each paint station. Each color changer utilizes lighted push buttons that are energized by an encoder that tracks vehicles moving through the spray booth and directs the painter to the proper paint for the vehicle being painted.

Abstract: The invention is for a process of removal of dissolved contaminants from an organic solution. The process of the invention involves placing a module containing an ion exchange resin, activated carbon or a mixture of the two between a container from which the organic solution is dispensed and the point at which the solution is to be used. The solution is then passed through the module to remove contaminants. The inventions is useful for removal of dissolved contaminants from organic solutions requiring high purity for use.
