Abstract: A continuous polymerization process where one or more stirred vessels (intermittent reactor vessels) are employed in oligomer transfer line for mixing additives. An additive is added in the stirred vessel either as a solution or as slurry. The additive may or may not be reactive with the other monomer of the polyester molecule. The additive reacts with the monomer and incorporates in the polymer backbone in one of the embodiment. One or more further additives are mixed with the pre-reactor monomer mix and are charged in the first reactor or charged through the stirred vessel in the form of single slurry or solution or multiple slurries or solutions. Any further vessels employed provide higher residence time proportionate to output and use of such vessels in reactor system is independent of the any further additives.

Abstract: The invention relates to active oxygen-scavenger based polymer resin composition for oxygen barrier, a process for preparing such composition and articles such as bottles or other format of packaging. These compositions have an ability to consume an amount of oxygen and thereby deplete the level of the same from the immediate atmosphere surrounding the packaged content and at ambient temperatures.

Abstract: Routes between data planes are partitioned according to the source and destination data planes. Partitions are distributed according to the source data plane associated with the partition. Each data plane is configured to clear and resynchronize its own routes when a data plane fails. Also, the restarted data plane is configured to restore routes by retrieving partitions that have the restarted data plane as the source data plane.
