  • ULTRASOUND SYSTEM FRONT-END CIRCUIT FOR A 128-ELEMENT ARRAY PROBE
    Publication number: 20220381890
    Abstract: Front-end circuitry for an ultrasound system comprises a beamformer FPGA integrated circuit, transmit ICs with both pulse transmitters and linear waveform transmitters and T/R switches, transmit control and receiver ICs, and analog-to-digital converter (ADC) ICs. Only the transmit ICs require high voltages, and the transmit/receive switches are integrated in the transmit ICs, isolating the receiver ICs from high voltages. The transmitters can be trimmed to adjust the pulse rise and fall rates, enabling the transmission of pulses with low harmonic frequency content and thus better harmonic images.

  • Use of cellulose ether compounds for increasing the open time and improving the wettability of cement-based mortars
    Publication number: 20190300432
    Abstract: The present invention relates to cellulose ether compounds for increasing the open time and improving the wettability of cement-based mortars. The inventive cellulose ether compounds are formed from cellulose ether with one or more liquid antifoams incorporated therein. The inventive cellulose ether compounds are preferably used as modified cellulose ether in dry mortars for increasing the open time.

  • Use of carboxymethylated methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose ethers or methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ethers
    Patent number: 5372642
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of carboxymethylated methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose ethers or methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ethers having a DS.sub.alkyl from 1.0 to 2.0, a DS.sub.carboxyalkyl from 0.005 to 0.6 and an MS.sub.hydroxyalkyl from 0.05 to 1 as an additive to mixtures of hydrated lime and cement, and to the mixtures of hydrated lime and cement obtained in this way.
