Abstract: The disclosure relates to a shielded electronic module with compartmental integrated shielding. The disclosed shielded electronic module includes an electronic module having an interposer, a mold compound, a first device component, a second device component, and an interior shield wall, and a module shielding structure directly and completely covers a top surface and side surfaces of the electronic module. Herein, the first device component and the second device component are formed over a top surface of the interposer, and the mold compound resides over the top surface of the interposer and fully encapsulates the first device component and the second device component. The interior shield wall is a continuous metal sheet and extends vertically through the mold compound towards the top surface of the interposer to separate the first device component and the second device component. The module shielding structure is physically and electrically connected to the interior shield wall.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to an electronic device with a solder interconnect and multiple material encapsulant. The electronic device includes a die last assembly with the die assembled to an electronic packaging substrate by a solder interconnect. At least a portion of a first dielectric material and the die are milled or ground, with a second dielectric material applied over an exposed portion of the die. A shield is then positioned over and electrically insulated from the die. Accordingly, such a configuration reduces a thickness or height of an electronic device with shielding and a die last assembly.

Abstract: Systems and methods for top side cooling for a power amplifier module are disclosed. The power amplifier module may be part of a system in a package that may be considered inverted relative to a normal orientation. A power amplifier die (and other elements) may be mounted on a metallization layer. Wire bond connections may communicatively couple the “top” of the power amplifier die to the metallization layer. A plated heat sink (PHS) laminate may be positioned “beneath” the power amplifier die in the metallization layer. The metallization layer may communicatively couple to vias that extend “up” and “above” the power amplifier die to a connection pad. The entire package is then inverted such that the connection pads may couple to a printed circuit board in a downward direction, and the PHS is now facing upward so that it may be coupled to a heat sink.

The wheel disc and the attached tire extend outwardly from the attachment hub. The attachment hub includes the cylinder with a securing ring affixed to the inwardly extending portion of the cylinder and disposed in abutting relation with the inner surface of the wheel disc wherein the outer surface of the cylinder is disposed between the securing ring and a flange.

Abstract: In one aspect, a process for producing vinyl chloride from ethane/ethylene involving: (a) combining ethane, ethylene, or mixtures thereof with an oxygen source and a chlorine source in a reactor containing a suitable catalyst under conditions sufficient to convert substantially all of the C2 hydrocarbon fed and to produce a product stream comprising vinyl chloride and hydrogen chloride; and (b) recycling unreacted hydrogen chloride back for use in Step (a). No C2 hydrocarbon recycle is required in this process. In another aspect, a process for producing vinyl chloride involving: (a) combining ethane, optionally ethylene, an oxygen source, and a chlorine source in a reactor containing a suitable catalyst under conditions sufficient to produce vinyl chloride and hydrogen chloride; (b) catalytically reacting said hydrogen chloride in a second reactor to provide a second reactor effluent essentially devoid of hydrogen chloride; and (c) recycling said second reactor effluent to step (a).

Abstract: Alumina is used as a support for the CuCl2 catalyst and as a diluent in the oxychlorination of ethylene. When a low surface area alumina, e.g. high purity alpha-alumina, is used as diluent for the reaction, reduced oxidation and less chlorinated by-products are achieved. Alternatively, the alumina used as the catalyst support, e.g. a gamma-alumina which has a high surface area and higher amounts of impurities, can be used as diluent if it is impregnated with an alkali metal ion, e.g K+ ion, which is usually employed as a salt.

Abstract: A method to purify impure gaseous hydrogen chloride containing an unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbon contaminant in an amount less than that necessary to inhibit purification, comprising exposing the impure hydrogen chloride to an ultraviolet light source in the presence of gaseous chloride for a sufficient time for the gaseous chloride to react with organic impurities in the hydrogen chloride to form heavier organic compounds and thereafter separating the heavier compounds from the hydrogen chloride.

Abstract: A catalyst, such as FeCl.sub.3, useful in the production of chlorinated hydrocarbons such as 1,1-dichloroethane is removed from the effluent of a process reactor and recycled. Hydrochloric acid is removed from the process stream resulting in the catalyst present in the process stream in solution precipitating out of solution. Then it can be removed from the process stream by conventional separation techniques. Alternatively, the catalyst present in the process stream as a solid, without the removal of HCl, is separated from the liquid present by means of a cyclone and recycled. In both cases, the catalyst retains its catalytic activity.

Abstract: For measurement of chlorine concentration in a process stream, an improved device is set forth measuring light transmission in a selected frequency range. The preferred embodiment uses a light source, a light filter and an optical fiber extending to a pipe or other vessel with flowing chlorine. The light is transmitted from a lens system to another lens system and into a second optical fiber. The second fiber extends to a measuring device.

Abstract: This invention relates to an improved liquid phase chlorination process for the chlorination of methyl chloride to preferentially produce methylene chloride. The chlorine is provided to the reaction mixture in a mole percent, based upon the total moles of chlorine and methyl chloride in the mix, which ranges from about 16 mole percent to about 2 mole percent.

Abstract: There is described a process in which a contaminated soil is freed of its contaminants and the solvent used to free and wash the contaminated soil is collected and reused and/or it is combusted and removed from the system in a form which will not contaminate the ambient atmosphere. All portions of this equipment are substantially gas tight and liquid tight and therefore eliminate or markedly reduce any further contamination of the ambient atmosphere with the contaminants found in the soil.

Abstract: The process is an improvement over the chlorination of EDC in a boiling bed. The reactants, chlorine and dichloroethane (either 1,1- or 1,2-) are mixed in the vapor phase and passed over a molecular sieve which serves as a catalyst to produce 1,1,2-trichloroethane.

Abstract: The present invention relates to high speed process and apparatus suitable for the preparation of cigarette filter rods having high tow utilization in terms of pressure drop per unit rod weight without producing substantial tow density variations. In accordance with this invention, it has been discovered that in a process for manufacturing filter elements from opened and deregistered crimped continuous filament tow, wherein said tow is conducted from a mechanical forwarding means through an aspirating jet positioned adjacent a compacting means and wherein means are provided for dissipating aspirating fluid, that filter rod pressure drop and weight variations are reduced by aspirating at low pressures and more specifically, at fluid pressures of not more than about 3 pounds per square inch gauge and by causing the aspirating fluid, at its point of contact with the continuous filament tow, to flow substantially in a direction axial to that of the tow.

Abstract: An apparatus for the recovery of solvents from coated parts during the drying step which consists of a means for heating the air used to dry the parts, an insulated drying chamber, a liquid spray scrubber, a refrigeration section to condense solvent and a cross-exchanger which allows air coming into the refrigeration section to be cooled by that exiting therefrom. The cooled solvent-lean air is then passed to the heating means before being recycled to the drying step.
