Abstract: A system including a dual cure composite structure is disclosed. The system also includes a first layer comprising a resin having a first and a second functional group. The system further includes a second layer comprising the resin having the first and the second functional group. The system also includes a third layer comprising the resin having the first and the second functional group. The system further includes a first covalent bond across an interface of the first and the second layer and a second covalent bond across another interface of the second and the third layer. The system further includes more than two layers comprising the resin having the first and second functional group. A method of manufacturing a system including a dual cure composite structure is also disclosed. The method includes providing a first layer comprising a resin having a first functional group and a second functional group. The method also includes applying a first curing source to partially cure the first layer.

Abstract: A coated abrasive product is disclosed, which includes a substrate and an abrasive layer overlying the substrate. The abrasive layer includes abrasive grains and a binder, the binder being formed from a binder formulation having first and second binder components mixed together uniformly with the abrasive grains, wherein the first binder component is radiation curable and the second binder component comprises a powder and is thermally curable.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wind power plant comprising a vertically disposed shaft (2), a rotor with a number of straight or slightly curved blades (3, 4) which are parallel to the shaft (2); said rotor rotates round the shaft (2) whereby at least, one rotor blade (3, 4) which is disposed on the side facing the shaft (2) has a strip (5), which, in turn, is parallel to the shaft and projects from the surface of the rotor-blade (3, 4).

Abstract: Coated abrasives comprising shaped structures deposited on a backing can be given increased versatility can be made by a process in which the shaped structure is imposed on a structure deposited in layers on the backing before the shaped structures are formed such that different characteristics are revealed as the structure is eroded during use.

Abstract: Coated abrasives comprising shaped structures deposited on a backing can be given increased versatility by varying the composition comprising the structure such that different characteristics are revealed as the structure is eroded during use.

Abstract: Abrasive tools, such as coated abrasives, made using radaition curable resin binders can be given a greater depth of cure of the binder if they include an acylphosphine oxide initiator.

Abstract: Coated abrasives suitable for very fine abrading applications can be obtained by depositing a layer of a formulation comprising abrasive grits, fillers, grinding aid, additives and a binder resin on a substrate, treating the formulation to increase the viscosity and render it plastic but non-flowing, embossing a suitable pattern on the surface of the layer, and then curing the binder component of the formulation.

Abstract: Coated abrasives suitable for very fine abrading applications can be obtained by depositing formulations comprising abrasive grits, fillers, grinding aid, additives and a binder resin and in patterns on a surface using a rotogravure technique providing the viscosity is controlled such that the formulation deposited does not lose its shape prior to cure.

Abstract: Coated abrasives suitable for very fine abrading applications can be obtained by depositing a layer of a formulation comprising abrasive grits, fillers, grinding aid, additives and a binder resin on a substrate in the form of a structured abrasive and then adhering to the surface of the structured abrasive a functional powder.
