Catheter balloon
An expandable medical device or component thereof including a tubular body formed of a wrapped sheet of porous polymeric material fused together, the tubular body having a fused seam at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the tubular body which changes along the length of the tubular body from a first angle to a second angle greater than the first angle. The sheet of porous polymeric material is wound and then fused together such that the winding angle is less in a first longitudinal section of the tubular body compared with the winding angle in a second longitudinal section of the tubular body, in order to provide the second section with greater resistance to expansion (i.e., lower compliance) than the first section.

Toner coated with thin film
Satisfactory anti-blocking property of powder toner can be realized, while avoiding increase in softening temperature of the powder toner, by coating the surface of a low melting point powder toner with a thermosetting resin. This leads to the realization of toner fixing at lower temperatures and is particularly effective when using a urea resin as the thermosetting resin or employing polymerized toner as the powder toner. Use of the surface-coated powder toner with a low softening temperature and less blocking tendency makes possible reduction of thermal energy and time required for fusing, thereby realizing energy-saving and high-speed fusing process.

A turbocharger has a shaft formed of a strong material such as steel and an impeller formed of a relatively weaker material such as aluminum alloy. The impeller is mounted on the shaft by means of an internally-threaded insert, for example also of steel, interference fitted into the impeller hub. To prevent loss of the interference fit between the insert and impeller during thermal and speed excursions of the impeller during operation of the turbocharger, a constraining ring is fitted to the hub of the impeller. The ring is of a material having a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than the material of the impeller and surrounds at least a part of that axial length of the impeller which overlies the insert.

Methods for forming carbon silicon alloy (CSA) and structures thereof are disclosed. The method provides improvement in substitutionality and deposition rate of carbon in epitaxially grown carbon silicon alloy layers (i.e., substituted carbon in Si lattice). In one embodiment of the disclosed method, a carbon silicon alloy layer is epitaxially grown on a substrate at an intermediate temperature with a silicon precursor, a carbon (C) precursor in the presence of an etchant and a trace amount of germanium material (e.g., germane (GeH4)). The intermediate temperature increases the percentage of substitutional carbon in epitaxially grown CSA layer and avoids any tendency for silicon carbide to form. The presence of the trace amount of germanium material, of approximately less than 1% to approximately 5%, in the resulting epitaxial layer, has an effect of stabilizing and enhancing deposition / growth rate without compromising the tensile stress of CSA layer formed thereby.
