Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to novel and advantageous disposable dispensers. The dispenser may include a dispense assembly comprising an outlet channel in fluid communication with a terminal apparatus, and a pressure source providing a limited supply of fluid or gas, and also includes a collapsible liner that contains a material to be dispensed, the liner detachably secured to the dispense assembly with the outlet channel in fluid communication with an interior of the liner, wherein the material in the liner is dispensed out the liner and through the outlet channel to the terminal apparatus.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods which include a material receiving chamber for receiving a material (e.g., fluid containing medium) and an evacuable chamber configured to have vacuum applied thereto, and are configured to eliminate or at least reduce microbubble formation, eliminate or at least reduce unwanted diffusion of gas into the fluid containing medium being stored/dispensed, and/or remove at least a portion of gas or air bubbles entrained or dissolved in the fluid containing medium. Also disclosed are methods for controlling or reducing the concentration of gas in the material which may be subjected to external pressure during storage and/or dispensing.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a blow-molded, rigid collapsible liner that can be suitable particularly for smaller storage and dispensing systems. The rigid collapsible liner may be a stand-alone liner, e.g., used without an outer container, and may be dispensed from a fixed pressure dispensing can. Folds in the rigid collapsible liner may be substantially eliminated, thereby substantially reducing or eliminating the problems associated with pinholes, weld tears, and overflow. The present disclosure also relates to flexible gusseted or non-gusseted liners, which is scalable in size and may be used for storage of up to 200 L or more. The flexible gusseted liner may be foldable, such that the liner can be introduced into a dispensing can. The liner can be made of thicker materials, substantially reducing or eliminating the problems associated pinholes, and may include more robust welds, substantially reducing or eliminating the problems associated weld tears.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a blow-molded, rigid collapsible container that can be suitable for storage and dispensing systems of practically any size. The rigid collapsible container may be a stand-alone container. The container may be blow-molded as a unitary piece that may include folds or pre-folds that allows the container to collapse into a relatively flat position. In an expanded state, the container may have a generally trapezoidal prism shape.
Abstract:
A liner having a tubular body portion with a top circumferential edge and a bottom circumferential edge, a generally circular bottom portion sealed to the tubular body portion along the bottom circumferential edge, and a generally circular top portion sealed to the tubular body portion along the top circumferential edge. The top portion may include a fitment sealed thereto. The tubular body portion may include at least one weld seam extending from the top circumferential edge to the bottom circumferential edge. In a particular embodiment, the tubular body portion may include two sheets welded together to form a tubular body, the tubular body portion thus having two weld seams extending from the top circumferential edge to the bottom circumferential edge.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a gas process system for treating a solids-containing and/or solids-forming gas stream, wherein said gas process system comprises a device for forming a liquid film between the gas stream to be treated and an interior wall of such gas processing system, and wherein such liquid film is spaced apart from the interior wall by a distance that is sufficient to prevent solids from passing through such liquid film to form deposition on the interior wall.
Abstract:
A valve assembly for controlling gas delivery from a higher pressure fluid source to a lower pressure processing tool comprising a valve poppet movingly engageable with a valve seating member and a fluid permeable insert positioned between the valve poppet and the valve seating member that is unexposed to flowing fluid when the valve poppet is in a closed position thereby preventing fluid flow through the valve assembly and provides a diffusional path for transfer of all flowing fluid when the valve poppet is in an open position. The permeable insert can be inserted into the sealable and engageable surface of either the valve seat member or the valve poppet.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for abatement of effluent from a CVD process using a source reagent having a metal organic loosely bound to an organic or organometallic molecule such that upon exposure to heat (36) such bond is readily cleavable, e.g., copper deposition process involving the formation of films on a substrate (32) by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) utilizing a precursor composition (16) for such film formation. The abatement process in specific embodiments facilitates high efficiency abatement of effluents from copper deposition processes utilizing Cu(hfac)TMVS as a copper source reagent (14).
Abstract:
A fluid storage and dispensing system (10) comprising a vessel (12) for holding a fluid (17) at a desired pressure. The vessel has a pressure regulator (26) set at a predetermined pressure. The regulator may be interiorly or exteriorly positioned, single-staged or multi-staged, and is associated with a port of the vessel. A dispensing assembly, e.g., including a flow control means such as a valve (20), is arranged in gas/vapor flow communication with the regulator (26), whereby the opening of the valve effects dispensing of gas/vapor from the vessel (12). The fluid in the vessel may be constituted by a liquid that is confined in the vessel at a pressure in excess of its liquefaction pressure at prevailing temperature conditions, e.g., ambient (room) temperature.
