  • Publication number: 20240158554
    Abstract: Provided is a polymerizable composition including (a) a polymerizable component comprising a diol bis(allyl carbonate) and/or a pre-polymer thereof; and (b) a polymerization initiator component including: (i) a di(C6-C10 alkyl) peroxydicarbonate, and (ii) an organic peroxide having one peroxy, one peroxycarbonate, or one peroxybenzoate group and a 1,1-dimethylalkyl group bonded to a peroxy oxygen, where (ii) comprises a molecular weight ranging from 200 to 250 g/mole, the polymerization initiator (b) is free of diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, (i) comprises an amount ranging from 4.87% to 7.90% by weight relative to the total solids of the polymerizable composition and (ii) comprises an amount within the range defined by the following formula: (4.406X2?0.592X+0.021)?Y?(0.726X2?0.121X+0.009) where X corresponds to the weight fraction of (i) and Y corresponds to the weight fraction of (ii). Also provided is a method of making an optical article from the polymerizable composition.

  • Patent number: 5673939
    Abstract: A dual-gas fuel tank assembly for a fuel cell driven vehicle wherein the fuel tank is interposed within the vehicle frame as an integral portion thereof with the tank assembly having a plurality of cylindrical pressure tanks of composite material construction for containing oxygen gas and the cylindrical tanks being partially nested within the tank assembly housing to leave substantial space around the pressure tanks for storing metal hydride powder therein for producing hydrogen gas to the fuel cell upon application of heat thereto.
