    Abstract: An object is to increase the conductivity of an electrode including active material particles and the like, which is used for a battery. Two-dimensional carbon including 1 to 10 graphenes is used as a conduction auxiliary agent, instead of a conventionally used conduction auxiliary agent extending only one-dimensionally at most, such as graphite particles, acetylene black, or carbon fibers. A conduction auxiliary agent extending two-dimensionally has higher probability of being in contact with active material particles or other conduction auxiliary agents, so that the conductivity can be improved.

    Abstract: A biodegradable liquid container carrier is made from molded pulp or fiber and is designed to grasp liquid containers at the top portion thereof. As a result, less material is used in the manufacture of the carrier. This is made possible by a combination of a wet end treatment with a fatty acid modified PET during processing of the pulp mass before forming the pulp mass into a liquid container carrier. A base coat that is 10-80% clay or pigment, 20-90% styrene-butadiene latex and 0-15% fatty acid modified PET and a top coat that is 75-100% fatty acid modified PET and 0-25% clay mixture onto the base coat are then applied to the molded liquid container carrier. These treatments greatly enhance the strength, rigidity and water-resistance of the carrier. However, the carrier is still biodegradable and will biodegrade in 90 days under composting conditions.

  • Publication number: 20140131911
    Abstract: The present invention overcomes the limitations of Siemens reactors by providing for the deposition reaction to occur inside of a sealed crucible rather than inside of the overall cavity of a water-cooled reactor. The crucible itself is positioned inside of a cartridge reactor, which can have heat shields between crucible and the reactor walls to significantly reduce radiant energy losses. Additionally, the ratio of deposition surface area to cavity volume in the crucible is much higher than that in the ratio of rod deposition surface area to overall cavity volume in Siemens reactors, which results in a much higher contact percentage of gas molecules with the deposition surfaces. This in turn results in a much higher actual conversion ratio of material in the gas to material on the deposition surfaces.

  • Patent number: 8721944
    Abstract: A method for producing a cranial remodeling device to correct for cranial shape abnormalities is described. One method comprises the steps of: providing cranial remodeling device trim line information; forming device material onto a three-dimensional model of a desired head shape; providing a machine responsive to said trim line information to move a spindle in a plurality of axes over the device material; providing a marking tool carried by the spindle; and operating the machine in response to the trim line information such that the machine moves the marking tool into surface engagement with the device material such that trim lines for the cranial remodeling device are marked onto the device material.

  • Publication number: 20140117579
    Abstract: A one-piece trim bezel formed from multiple components. In the event of two co-molded components, the first co-molded part is composed of a polymerized material having an unpainted surface that may be a high gloss smooth surface or a textured low gloss surface and the second co-molded part, formed with the first part, is composed of a plateable plastic material. The plateable plastic material may be plateable with chrome. A multiple-shot injection molding process is used to form the one-piece trim bezel which joins the first co-molded part and the second co-molded part in one operation. The formed part is then subjected to a plating process during which time the chrome only deposits on the surface of the plateable plastic material of the second co-molded part while the surface of the first co-molded part remains unplated.

  • Patent number: 8709253
    Abstract: The invention offers a separation membrane element that can be produced by a method in which a membrane-sealing portion is formed by, first, immersing end portions of hollow-fiber-shaped porous separation membranes in a resinous liquid and, then, curing the resin, that has a feature in that the membrane-sealing portion is formed of a casting resin and pores of the hollow-fiber-shaped porous separation membranes are filled with a pore-filling resin at the portion at which the membranes are in contact with the membrane-sealing portion, so that the casting resin is strongly bonded with the pore-filling resin, and that has the hollow-fiber-shaped porous separation membranes whose basal portions are flexible, so that breakage of the basal portions and leakage of gas or liquid are less likely to occur when in use; a separation membrane element that has a feature in that in the membrane-sealing portion, at least the surface at a side that is to be in contact with a liquid to be treated is formed of a thermosetting f
