  • Publication number: 20120085151
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for automatically determining the relative solution viscosity and/or the melt volume flow rate of a polymer, during a phase of the process for producing the polymer, where the polymer is in a solution with 10 to 20% by weight of the polymer in an organic solvent. The method includes continuously removing a substream of the polymer solution from a component of the process for producing the polymer, wherein the polymer solution is essentially free from inorganic salts; removing a sample having a volume of from 1 to 10 ?l from the substream; introducing the sample into a gel permeation chromatography apparatus and determining the gel permeation chromatography data for the polymer; and automatically determining the relative solution viscosity and/or the melt volume flow rate of the polymer from the data obtained from the gel permeation chromatogram, on the basis of calibration relationships.

  • Patent number: 7852809
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method of providing session mobility to an IP based real-time session in a telecommunications network whereby the telecommunications network uses the session initiation protocol for the setup and control of the session. The session comprises a media stream between a first terminal associated to a first network access point of the telecommunications network and a second terminal associated to a second network access point of the telecommunications network. A re-invite session initiation protocol signalling message related to session mobility of said session is intercepted at a session-related session border controller of the telecommunications network. Said session border controller initiates a corresponding session hand-over of said session. In said session hand-over, the media stream of said session is redirected to a new network access point of the first terminal and/or a new terminal.
