  • Publication number: 20220414087
    Abstract: A method and a system for generating an identity information on a blockchain database for a user is provided. User data associated with unique userID of the user is received via user device and stored on the blockchain database. A community score is determined and continually updated based on the received corresponding user data. The updated community score is validated against a set of predefined scores in percentage, ranging from 0 to 100%. The range of predefined scores includes values pertaining to negative, neutral and positive behavior of the user. The identity information for a user is generated based on the updated community score being validated within the range of values pertaining to the positive behavior of the user.

  • Publication number: 20220391859
    Abstract: A system and method for secure cryptocurrency transactions with identification information includes a server arrangement communicably coupled to a distributed ledger-based platform, where the server arrangement adds information related to the transaction in the metadata of the transaction. This allows for the availability of information regarding the transaction and also track the transaction, the senders and the receivers of the transaction, if need be. Further, the system may include an additional aspect of an approving authority signing and approving a transaction based on the authenticity of the sender and receiver information, associated with the cryptocurrency transaction.

  • Patent number: 9011983
    Abstract: A process for producing polymeric films by applying a liquid composition onto a surface of a substrate under vacuum conditions in a vacuum chamber. The composition has a first component which is polymerizable or crosslinkable in the presence of a sufficient amount of an acid; and a cationic photoinitiator which generates an acid upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation, electron beam radiation or both to cause polymerizing or crosslinking of the first component. A gas which emits ultraviolet radiation upon exposure to electron beam radiation is introduced into the vacuum chamber. The composition and the gas are exposed to electron beam radiation to cause the cationic photoinitiator to generate an amount of an acid to cause polymerizing or crosslinking of the first component. The composition is exposed to both electron beam radiation and gas-generated ultraviolet radiation and cured.

  • Patent number: 8852476
    Abstract: A process for forming thin flake particles includes coating the liquid release agent over a base substrate, forming a multilayer structure by depositing a thin film over the liquid release agent, collecting the multilayer structure, and separating the thin flake from the multilayer structure using a suitable solvent. The liquid release agent comprises a curable compound that can form a solidified layer less than 0.001 mm thick onto which the thin film can be deposited. Separation requires little solvent because of the thinness of the solidified layer.

  • Patent number: 8460762
    Abstract: A liquid composition and a process for coating the composition onto a surface of a substrate in a substantially oxygen-free atmosphere, under vacuum conditions. The composition comprises one or more components, all of which components do not go into a gas or vapor phase under the vacuum conditions. The composition has an ethylenically unsaturated component composed of an ethylenically unsaturated methacrylate monomer, or a combination of an ethylenically unsaturated methacrylate monomer and an ethylenically unsaturated methacrylate oligomer. The ethylenically unsaturated component is polymerizable or crosslinkable by the application of sufficient electron beam radiation. The composition is substantially absent of ethylenically unsaturated acrylate components, substantially absent of polymerization initiators, and substantially absent of solvents. The composition optionally further comprises one or more polymers without an acrylate functional group and without a methacrylate functional group.

  • Publication number: 20060242784
    Abstract: A drying gantry for vehicle wash plants is proposed having at least one height-adjustable cross-beam to which a blower arrangement is attached for drying the surfaces of a vehicle over which the cross-beam moves. The blower arrangement is provided with a nozzle mouth arrangement forming a lower contour of the cross-beam, with the height position of the cross-beam being controllable depending on a desired distance between the lower contour of the cross-beam and the vehicle over which the cross-beam moves. The drying gantry is characterised in that the lower contour of the cross-beam in a region approximately corresponding to the middle of the vehicle width and on both lateral ends of the vehicle recedes towards the top, thus forming clear spaces.
