Abstract:
An article of manufacture is disclosed comprising an electrochemical cell having a positive electrode, an absorber-separator and a negative electrode wherein at least one of the electrodes or absorber-separator comprises a porous polyvinylidene fluoride. The porous polyvinylidene fluoride electrodes have an electrode material combined therewith, and the porous polyvinylidene fluoride absorber-separator has an electrolyte material combined therewith.
Abstract:
Stripping action of an alkaline paint stripper is improved when ammonia is partially or completely replaced with ammonium bicarbonate or chemical equivalent thereof which decomposes into ammonia and carbon dioxide. A benzyl alcohol solvent system containing at least ammonium bicarbonate is preferably a water-in-oil emulsion emulsified with oleic hydroxyethyl imidazoline and thickened with hydroxypropyl cellulose or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. A mixture of ammonium carbamate and ammonium bicarbonate identified as ammonium carbonate is the preferred activator for this alkaline paint stripper. Improved stripping can also be provided by reacting ammonium bicarbonate and ammonia in situ within the water-in-oil emulsion.
Abstract:
L'invention concerne des compositions renforçantes pour polymères thermoplastiques ayant des propriétés d'anti-mottage et d'écoulement améliorées, qui comprennent un additif choc et une silice précipitée. Ces compositions conviennent tout particulièrement au renforcement du PVC.
Abstract:
A method is described for strengthening or restoring strength to a brittle oxide substrate which includes the steps of coating the brittle oxide substrate with an aqueous solution containing a silane-based composition, and curing the coating to form a transparent layer on the brittle oxide substrate. Also disclosed are novel compositions used to coat brittle oxide substrates, and silane-coated brittle oxide containers.
Abstract:
Compounds which contain peroxide linkages and the radical of a hindered amine light stabilizer group are provided. These compounds function as polymerization initiators which cause the hindered amine stabilizer to be chemically bound to the polymer.
