Abstract: The present disclosure relates to diesel fuel emulsions, a process to make them and the use thereof in a combustion process. The emulsions are comprise a surfactant of formula wherein R is a C5-C22 linear or branched, saturated or non-saturated, substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group, A is or CH2, each X, independently, is H, COOM or SO3M, with at least one X in the molecule being COOM or SO3M, each R2, independently, is H, CH3, or C2H5, k=0-3, each m, independently, is about 2-6, each n, independently, is about 1-6 and the alkylene formed when n>1 may be substituted with alkyl groups, o=0-40, and each M, independently, is selected from H and any cation M+.

Abstract: A clip has a clip strap which has a first edge and a second edge and a clamping device for clamping the clip strap. The clip strap has recesses which are arranged between the first edge and the second edge and are spaced apart. The clamping device has a guide channel designed so as to complement the clip strap, for guiding through the clip strap. The clamping device has at least one first sprung detent tongue having a first free end, which protrudes into the guide channel and is oriented obliquely with respect to a clamping direction of the clip strap predefined by the guide channel in such a way that when the clip strap is guided through the guide channel in the clamping direction, the first free end latches successively into recesses of the clip strap.

Abstract: A database processing system can support applications of an online transaction processing (OLTP) archetype and of an online analytical processing (OLAP) archetype. Hybrid archetypes can also be supported to implement hybrid scenarios. Requests for services are routed to an appropriate engine for fulfillment. User interface assets can be served by a shared infrastructure. Seamless navigation from one archetype to another can be supported in an insight-to-action scenario.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a coating composition based on a specific epoxy-functional siloxane oligomer and an amine-functional polyorganosiloxane. The coating composition is suitable for use on substrates subjected to outdoor conditions, in particular conditions where a high durability, a high UV resistance, and good anti-corrosive properties are required.

Abstract: A core system including different program components performing distinct tasks in a workflow sequence that are initiated through status field updates of objects in database may be modified to define a new status triggering additional processes in an action management system. Once the additional processes are completed, the status field may be changed to an original status provided by the core system to trigger a second program component in the workflow sequence. The action management system may contain user customized processes that may be modified and changed independent of the functionality provided by the core system.

Abstract: A logistics service provider includes at least one working workarea, the at least one working workarea used for at least one of logistics planning, logistics execution, handling transactional data and handling global master data, at least one template workarea, the at least one template workarea used for at least one of generating templates for performing various operations and storing the generated templates and at least one customer workarea, the at least one customer workarea storing at least one of customer specific master data and customer specific configuration information. At least one of the logistics planning and logistics execution is performed for a customer in the working workarea, using at least one of the customer specific master data and the customer specific configuration information retrieved from that customer's at least one customer workarea.
