Abstract:
A heat transfer composition in preshaped, tape form comprising an elongate extrusion consisting essentially of an epoxy resin, dicyandiamide curing agent therefor, nitrile rubber, polybutene, particulate heat transfer coefficient-increasing filler and asbestos, the elongate extrusion being strippably adhered to a release backing sheet.
Abstract:
A growth regulation process involving certain phosphonic acid compounds having the general formula:
The growth regulation process of the present invention relates mainly, though not entirely, to the inducement of an ethylene response or ethylene-type response in plants and part thereof including, but not limited to, stems, roots, leaves, flowers, buds, and harvested as well as unharvested fruit. The method of the present invention produces a wide variety of plant growth responses including: 1. Increasing yields 2. Auxin activity 3. Inhibition of terminal growth, control of apical dominance, increase in branching and increase in tillering 4. Changing bi chemical composition of plant or portions thereof 5. Abscission of foliage, flowers and fruit 6. Hastening ripening and color promotion in fruit 7. Increasing flowering and fruiting 8. Abortion or inhibition of flowering and seed development 9. Prevention of lodging 10. Stimulation of seed germination and breaking of dormancy 11. Resistance to freeze injury 12. Hormone or epinasty effects 13. Interaction with other growth regulators 14. Interaction with herbicides 15. Disease resistance.
Abstract:
A metal surface upon which a conversion coating has already been formed, is treated by contacting the surface with an aqueous solution consisting of a soluble zirconium containing compound, thereby improving the qualitiies of the conversion coating.
Abstract:
A method for controlling plant growth and compounds used in such method. The method includes the step of applying a composition comprising substituted pyrido(3,2-d) pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones as herein described to the locus to be protected As new compositions of matter, 3-substitutedpyrido (3,2d)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones, where the 3-substituent is a member of the group consisting of alkyl groups having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms, dimethoxyethyl, aralkyl groups such as benzyl, chlorosubstituted benzyl, and lower alkyl and methoxy substituted benzyl, cycloalkyl groups having from 3 to 8 carbon atoms, pyridyl substituted alkyl groups having from 1 to 2 carbon atoms, alkenyl groups having not more than 8 carbon atoms, tetrahydrofurfuryl aryl, pyrrolidino, piperidino, homopiperdino, and septamethyleneimino, and 1,3-disubstituted analogues.
Abstract:
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING (2-CHLOROETHYL)PHOSHONIC ACID AND RELATED COMPOUNDS ARE USED TO EFFECT DIURESIS AND RELATED PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTIVITY.
Abstract:
A METALLIC SURFACE IS COATED WITH A POLYMERIC RESINOUS COATING BY IMMERSING THE SURFACE IN AN ACIDIC AQUEOUS COATING COMPOSITION COMPRISING POLYMERIC RESINOUS COATING-FORMING MATERIAL AND AN OXIDIZING AGENT. THE CORROSION RESISTANCE AND/OR THE SURFACE APPERANCE OF THE RESINOUS COATING IS MODIFIED BY RISING THE COATING WITH AN AQUEOUS RINSE SOLUTION CONTAINING HEXAVALENT CHROMIUM OR AN AQUEOUS RINSE SOLUTION CONTAINING HEXAVALENT CHROMIUM AND REDUCED FORMS OF CHROMIUM.
Abstract:
A polysiloxane oven coating for use in paint baking ovens to trap undesirable solid particulate matter and thereby prevent its deposition on the baking paint film. The coating can be employed effectively without causing paint defects in the finished paint film.
Abstract:
Prior to applying an alkyd paint to a metallic surface or to a pre-paint coating covering a metallic surface, there is applied to said surface or said coating a polyester or a polyamide for the purpose of improving the adhesion of said paint. The polyester or polyamide can be applied from an aqueous rinse solution or from a final rinse solution.
Abstract:
A METAL SURFACE UPON WHICH A CONVERSION COATING HAS ALREADY BEEN FORMED, IS TREATED BY CONTACTING THE SURFACE WITH AN AQUEOUS SOLUTION CONSISTING OF A SOLUBLE ZIRCONIUM CONTAINING COMPOUND, THEREBY IMPROVING THE QUALITIES OF THE CONVERSION COATING.
Abstract:
A composition comprising a nitrogenous organic compound, a carboxylic acid and a sulfonium salt for use in an acidic aqueous composition for the purpose of inhibiting acid attack on metallic surfaces which are contacted with the acidic composition.
