39results about How to "Sufficient dimensional stability" patented technology

A wound closure including a wound bridging portion that has sufficient dimensional stability to hold the wound edges in proper alignment, even in the face of substantial stretching of the wound closure as a whole, is disclosed. The wound closure is dimensionally stable directly over the wound. The remainder of the wound closure is preferably substantially more extensible and elastic than the wound bridging portion to improve conformability and adhesion of the wound closure to the patient. The wound closures may include opposing end portions of unequal lengths yielding an asymmetric shape that facilitates close placement of the wound closures along a wound.

During the thermal cycle the substrate has an elastic modulus greater than about 10¹⁰ dynes/cm² and a viscoelastic index of less than about 0.1.

A coated roll printing paper for printing with the cold-set offset-printing process is described, which gives a printing result comparable with that of low-weight coated matte grades. The paper is characterized by a high proportion of a fine calcium carbonate in the coating pigment, and a relatively low proportion of highly active binders.

An automatic milking plant is provided with a short milk hose, which, due to spaced-apart elevations in its center piece, has sufficient mechanical stability vis-a-vis pressure differences as well as a high flexibility. The use of the short milk hose according to the present invention leads to a reduction of the mechanical strain on the udder and thus also reduces irritations of the animal to be milked.

A bottle that has at least one thinnest portion in which the wall thickness of the bottle is less than 0.1 mm and preferably less than 0.05 mm, and a method for producing such a bottle.

A lightweight finish for a hot-fill container uses less material compared to existing hot-fill container finishes. The lightweight finish yields a cost savings while still providing adequate dimensional stability to allow the container to maintain its shape during the hot-fill process.

An oligophosphate of general formula

is disclosed. The oligophosphate is suitable as a flame retardant for thermoplastic molding compositions that exhibit a good flame-retardant effect, improved dimensional stability under the effect of heat, a good level of toughness and excellent flowability.

The present invention provides highly oriented multilayer films. They are produced by coextruding or laminating films having at least one layer of a fluoropolymer, at least one layer of a polyolefin homopolymer or copolymer and an intermediate adhesive layer of a polyolefin having at least one functional moiety of an unsaturated carboxylic acid or anhydride thereof. With this structure the polyolefin layer allows the fluoropolymer layer to be stretched up to ten times its original length. Such a high orientation ratio for the fluoropolymer film increases the mechanical strength, toughness, and water vapor barrier properties of the film while using a thinner gauge fluoropolymer film. Coextrusion processing can be done at higher temperatures, i.e. in the range of from at about 280° C. to about 400° C. These temperatures allow films to be produced in the absence of polymer degradation and film melt fracture.

A composite gusset filler (1) of cut-off material from fiber fabrics (2, 3) trimmed into fragments of 2 min-10 mm length, separated into single yarn or roving elements mixed to quasi-homogeneous raw material for a semi-finished gusset filler (1). The present invention relates as well to specific shapes and a method of manufacture of said composite gusset filler (1) and to applications of said composite gusset filler (1).

A control sail for a kite has an airfoil with a leading edge and a trailing edge, and a tube system comprising a front tube which extends along the leading edge and at least one transverse tube which extends between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The front tube is situated in a freely movable manner within a chamber which extends along the leading edge of the airfoil whereby an aerodynamically advantageous profile at the leading edge may be continuously maintained, even when the angle of attack of the control sail changes. The invention further relates to a kite having a control sail according to the invention, with control lines connected to the control sail.

A laminated surface covering including a facing material made of vinyl and a backing material comprising a rubber component. The rubber component comprising at least a matrix of bonded rubber granules. A bonding material disposed between the facing material and the backing material. The facing material configured to melt at a temperature between 165° F. and 210° F. infiltrating the backing material thereby essentially encasing the rubber granules of the matrix and providing fire retardation and smoke suppression qualities.

A method of manufacturing a ceramic diesel particle filter (DPF) and a DPF manufactured by the method, the DPF having a ceramic filter body (1) including gas channels (18, 18′) with planar and porous filter segments (3), which are provided for the exhaust gas stream (2) to flow through them transversely to the face of the filter segments (3). The filter body (1) is formed by sintering at least one ceramic-impregnated fiber web (4) in a firing step under heat such that fibers (5) of the fiber material are burned off and the ceramic material (6) is sintered together to form the porous filter segment (3) between its two surfaces (7, 8). At least one fiber web (4) is corrugated to form the gas channels (18, 18′) and rolled up to form the filter body (1), and the cross section of at least a portion of the gas channels (18, 18′) changes from an inlet end (33) to a discharge end (34).

A rail covering for a sliding seat rail between two passenger seats in a cabin of a vehicle has a first and a second elongate covering element. The first and second covering elements are formed complementary with respect to each other, allowing the first covering element to telescopically engage with a lower side of the second covering element. The first covering element has, at least in regions on a lower side, a first guide which displaceably holds the first covering element on the sliding seat rail along the main direction of extent thereof. The second covering element has an open end arranged on the end side and, at an end arranged oppositely on the end side on a lower side, has a second guide which displaceably holds the second covering element on the sliding seat rail along the main direction of extent thereof.

A detachable lining for outerwear comprises a bodice, which includes an inner substantially full layer composed of a relatively rough fabric, an outer substantially full layer composed of a relatively smooth fabric, and an overlay partial layer composed of a relatively smooth fabric. The partial layer is superposed on the inner layer at an upper region of the bodice. The inner layer and outer layer are quilted together for enhancing dimensional stability and preventing bunching. The overlay partial layer has a relatively low coefficient of friction for encouraging sliding and preventing catching.

A metal-clad laminate is provided. The metal-clad laminate includes:

• • a dielectric layer, which has a first reinforcing material and a dielectric material formed on the surface of the first reinforcing material, wherein the dielectric material includes 60 wt % to 80 wt % of a first fluoropolymer and 20 wt % to 40 wt % of a first filler;
  • an adhesive layer, which is disposed on at least one side of the dielectric layer and includes an adhesive material, wherein the adhesive material has 60 wt % to 70 wt % of a second fluoropolymer and 30 wt % to 40 wt % of a second filler; and
  • a metal foil, which is disposed on the other side of the adhesive layer that is opposite to the dielectric layer,
  • wherein the melting point of the second fluoropolymer is lower than the melting point of the first fluoropolymer.
