Abstract: An example communication method includes determining that a first condition and a third condition are satisfied. The first condition is that preconfigured measurement information is configured and that at least one set of measurement information in the preconfigured measurement information satisfies a measurement requirement. The third condition is that measurement information of a positioning reference signal is not configured, or the third condition is that measurement information of a positioning reference signal does not satisfy the measurement requirement. The measurement information includes measurement gap (MG) configuration information. The method further includes sending a first request message. The first request message is for requesting to activate the at least one set of measurement information in the preconfigured measurement information.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a process of preparing a polyurethane elastomer foam, a polyurethane elastomer foam prepared by the process, and a method of using the polyurethane elastomer foam.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a two-component system for preparing deodorant polyurethane foams, which system includes component A including (b) at least one compound having at least two hydrogen atoms reactive toward isocyanates, (c) optionally chain extender and/or crosslinking agent, (d) blowing agent, (e) catalyst, and (f) optionally auxiliaries and additives, and component B including (a) at least one polyisocyanate, and (g) at least one anhydride. Further disclosed herein are a method of preparing deodorant polyurethane foams by the two-component system and a method of using such polyurethane foams in certain applications.

Abstract: A developing cartridge includes a casing configured to accommodate developer and having a first side and a second side oppositely arranged in a first direction, and a third side and a fourth side oppositely arranged in the second direction, the first direction and the second direction being intersected with each other. The developing cartridge further includes a developing roller, positioned at the third side, for rotating around a first axis extending in the first direction; a coupling, positioned at the first side, for receiving driving-force output from an image forming device to rotate; a driving surface, inclined to the first direction, including a first driving surface and a second driving surface; a detected part, at least partially positioned at the second side, for moving according to rotation of the coupling.

Abstract: A cable connector and a connector assembly including the cable connector are provided. The cable connector includes a plastic main body, a contact body and a cable. A cavity is formed in the plastic main body. The contact body is fixed on the plastic main body and extends into the cavity. The cable is fixed on the plastic main body. One end of the cable is inserted into the plastic main body and is electrically connected to the contact body in the cavity, and an electrically connected portion is exposed in the cavity. The electrically connected portion between the cable and the contact body is exposed in the cavity, so that a clearance is formed at the welding spots between the cable and the contact body and is not injection-moulded by the internal mould, which reduces the attenuation of the cable and greatly improves the signal integrity of the product.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are polyurethane foams which can be used for reducing or preventing the corrosion of polymeric materials, which can be produced by mixing components (a) at least one polyisocyanate, (b) at least one compound having at least two groups reactive toward isocyanates, (c) optionally chain extender and/or crosslinking agent, (d) blowing agent, (e) catalyst, (f) optionally auxiliaries and additives, and (g) at least one anhydride to give a reaction mixture, and curing said reaction mixture to give the polyurethane foams, where the anhydride is added in an amount of 0.05-5 wt %, based on the weight of component (a). Also disclosed herein are a method of reducing or preventing the corrosion of polymeric materials by using such polyurethane foams and a method of using the polyurethane foams in certain applications, for example, in automotive interiors.

Abstract: Described herein is a 3D spacer fabric reinforced composite, a process for producing it, a method of using it in footwear, and a footwear including it.

Abstract: Described herein is a method for joining a first metal pipe with a second metal pipe, the pipes being joined together in an overlapping area by use of a two-component polyurethane adhesive that encapsulates the overlapping area, where the method includes the steps of: (1) applying the two-component polyurethane adhesive onto an inner surface of a fixture; (2) inserting one end of the first metal pipe into one end of the second metal pipe so as to form a pipe assembly having the overlapping area between the two ends, and putting the overlapping area of the pipe assembly into the fixture; (3) closing the fixture such that the overlapping area of the pipe assembly is fixed in the fixture, and such that the adhesive therein encapsulates the overlapping area of the pipe assembly; (4) curing the two-component polyurethane adhesive; and (5) optionally, removing the fixture from the pipe assembly.

Abstract: Described herein is a method for preparing polyurethane foams, including (1) placing a reaction mixture into a pressurizable chamber, and (2) polymerizing the reaction mixture at an additional pressure, where the reaction mixture comprises an isocyanate, an isocyanate-reactive compound and a blowing agent, and the reaction mixture is placed into the pressurizable chamber at a packing factor of 2.0-4.0. Also described herein is a polyurethane foam prepared by such a method.

Abstract: Described herein is a polyurethane foam prepared with certain polytetrahydrofurans and optional polyether polyols. The polyurethane foam is characterized by low hardness increase at low temperature as compared with conventional polyurethane foam, and is suitable for use in products which can be exposed to low temperature such as snow boots.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for predicting transmission of an infectious disease, a computer apparatus, and a storage medium. The method includes determining one or more objects to be predicted, matching in a historical travel path database for a corresponding predicted path of each of the one or more objects to be predicted, and determining a transmission trend of the infectious disease in the one or more objects to be predicted based on the predicted travel paths. The predicted travel path of each object to be predicted is matched in the historical travel path database thus achieving the effect of reducing the computation amount of obtaining the predicted travel path.
