Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for making lactide from aqueous lactic acid. The inventive method comprises converting feed aqueous lactic acid to its vapor phase. The feed vapors then are passed through a reactor maintained at elevated temperature and in which optionally is disposed an alumina catalyst. Withdrawn from the reactor is product lactide, water, and unreacted lactic acid which are subject to separation for recovery of the lactide product. The separated unreacted lactic acid is eligible for readmission to the process for making additional lactide. This cyclic process embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of passing make-up aqueous lactic acid feed into a vaporization zone along with unreacted aqueous lactic acid filtrate from another step of the process and therein forming aqueous lactic acid feed vapors. The thus-generated vapors that are passed through a vapor phase reaction zone held at elevated temperature for forming lactide therein. Lactide as solid is separated from unreacted aqueous lactic acid filtrate; and the filtrate is passed into the vaporization zone in the initial step of the process.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for making L-lactide (LD) from aqueous L-lactic acid. Aqueous lactic acid feed for present purposes comprehends an aqueous mixture of one or more of lactic acid, lactic acid dimer, and lactic acid trimer optionally with LD being present. L-lactic acid is the preferred feed configuration for making L-lactide, and is to be understood even though the configuration symbol is not used throughout this application. Aqueous lactic acid feed is treated for removal of water therefrom until a degree of polymerization (DP) not substantially above about 2 is reached. The treatment then is ceased to produce a crude LD product. LD then is separate from the crude LD product. A preferred treatment involves heating the feed at elevated temperature to remove water. LD can be separated from the crude LD product by a variety of techniques to produce an LD-depleted product. This LD-depleted product, optionally augmented with additional aqueous lactic acid and/or water then can be readmitted to the process for making additional lactide. This cyclic or recycle process embodiment of the present invention enables very high lactide conversions to be realized.

Abstract: A method for providing intelligible markings that are virtually invisible to the unaided eye on the surface of an article, comprises: applying onto the surface, by a jet printing process, a marking medium comprising a compatible liquid or viscous substance containing an organic laser dye (typically IR-125 in a concentration of about 0.005 to 0.05 percent by weight of the medium) that is poorly absorptive of radiation in the visible range of about 400 to 700 nanometers, is highly absorptive of radiation in the near infrared range of at least about 750 nanometers in wavelength (typically about 750 to 900 nanometers), and fluoresces in response to radiation excitation in the said near infrared range to produce fluorescent radiation of wavelengths longer than the wavelength of the excitation (typically in the range of about 800 to 1100 nanometers). Other useful laser dyes may comprise DTTCI, DNTTCI, HDITCI, DDTTCI, IR-140, DDCI-4, or IR-132.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a security device having a control box (12) containing an electronic system (50) and a communications loop (14) over which the system transmits a signal. The device is constructed so that the communications loop can be extended from the control box across the boundary of a portal such as a door into a sealed enclosure into which access is restricted whereby the loop must be damaged or moved in order for an entry to be made into the enclosure. The device is adapted for detecting unauthorized entries into such enclosures such as rooms or containers and for recording the time at which such entries occur for later reference. Additionally, the device detects attempts to tamper or interfere with the operation of the device itself and records the time at which such events take place. In the preferred embodiment, the security device includes a microprocessor-based electronic system (50) and a detection module (72) capable of registering changes in the voltage and phase of the signal transmitted over the loop.

Abstract: The production of enhanced crystals is achieved through the use of forces greater than 1 G. This enhanced force technique has wide application to various crystal growth methodologies and produces crystals that are larger, of more uniform size, of better quality, or in higher yields than can be obtained for the same technique using similar times in a 1 G force.

Abstract: Homogenous and refined microstructure powders and the method of making them from, for example, liquid metal immiscible systems or very limited solid solubility systems. At least two metals are melted and then rapidly solidified to yield a solid with a segregated, non-uniform microstructure. The resulting rapidly-solidified solid is then reduced to a powder and subjected to high-energy milling for a time sufficient to reduce the segregation to the desired level of uniformity.

Abstract: The present invention constitutes a system for determining the amounts of ionizing radiation to which dosimeters using thermoluminescent materials (40) have been exposed. In accordance with this system, the thermoluminescent materials which comprise the dosimeters are first cooled by contact with a cryogenic substance (44) such as liquified nitrogen. The thermoluminescent materials are then optically stimulated by exposure to ultraviolet light (25). Thereafter, the amounts of visible light emitted by the thermoluminescent materials are detected and counted as the materials are allowed to warm up to room temperature. The amounts of luminescence exhibited by the materials are related to radiation exposure and provide a sensitive measure of radiation dosage. It has been discovered that the above procedure is most effective when heavily doped thermoluminescent materials are used and that the procedure allows many useful plastic materials to now be employed in dosimeter constructions.
