摘要:
A stabilizer composition comprising an AB type polymer for use in increasing Open Time of aqueous coating compositions is disclosed. The stabilizers compositions are of utility in many aqueous compositions including paints, stains, varnishes, adhesives and inks. Of particular interest is the use of the stabilizer compositions for in increasing the Open Time of latex paints as well as alkyd emulsion paints.

A method for using Patricia tree and longest prefix match for policy-based route look-up is described. Five route classes are determined based on a source address, a source address length, a destination address, a destination address length, and an ingress interface. Route classes are prioritized based on their content. A prefix for the first two route classes includes source and destination information. A prefix for the third and fourth route classes includes source information only. A prefix for the fifth route class includes destination information only. Four different route keys are constructed based on the route classes. The route keys are stored in a Patricia tree structure. For routing a data packet, a longest prefix match look-up is performed for a route key in descending priority order for the route classes.

An apparatus for a multi-domain computer system includes multiple virtual system domains, each having an associated, independent routing instance. A virtual switch is created to forward packets between the domains. The virtual switch is configured to operate substantially as if it were a physical layer-2 switch. The virtual switch and the virtual domains are connected together by virtual interfaces, where the virtual switch, the virtual domains, and the virtual interfaces are all created in software. Further, protocols such as ARP, IP, and/or IPv6 operate over the virtual interfaces in substantially the same way that they would over Ethernet. Also, each domain has a software driver that behaves like an Ethernet driver, and has a 48-bit Ethernet-like address that is used for the physical address.

Ingestible devices can directly deliver therapeutic agents to desired tissue(s) of the GI tract of a subject, such as the submucosa, the mucosa, and/or the mucus layer of the GI tract, and methods of using the same. The ingestible devices can deliver therapeutic agents in a safe, effective, and reliable manner. The disclosure also provides pharmaceutical compositions for use in methods of treating a disease or condition in a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
A method to assemble a disk drive having a spindle that includes a hub. At least one disk is placed on the hub. A clamp is fastened to the hub by a plurality of threaded fasteners. Each of the plurality of threaded fasteners is initially tightened. After initial tightening, an initial couple imbalance of the spindle is determined. After the initial couple imbalance is determined, a first selected threaded fastener of the plurality of threaded fasteners is selected and rotated by a first amount of rotation that is significantly different from a second amount of rotation of a second selected threaded fastener of the plurality of threaded fasteners. The selection and rotation of the first selected threaded fastener of the plurality of fasteners is determined based on the initial couple imbalance of the spindle.

摘要:
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request mirroring can provide a mechanism for synchronizing link-layer adjacency information among network elements. This application can be useful, for example, for internet protocol (IP) routing network elements in a high-availability configuration.

A robotic workstation includes apparatus for actuating one or more syringes. Each syringe has a cylinder and a plunger movable in the cylinder. A programmable robot has at least one syringe actuating device. The actuating device has a holder for holding and releasing a syringe cylinder and an actuator movable relative to the holder. A coupling couples the actuator to the plunger of the syringe such that, when the cylinder is held by the holder, movement of the actuator relative to the holder causes the plunger to move in the cylinder. A method of dispensing a material into a container includes robotically moving at least one syringe to a position for dispensing into a container. The plunger is robotically moved in the cylinder to dispense material from the syringe into the container. The workstation suitably includes a mixing apparatus for mixing materials in an array of containers at the workstation.
摘要:
An aqueous dispersion includes an associative thickener based on a hydrophobically modified poly(acetal- or ketal-polyether) (HM-PAPE) and at least one viscosity reducing agent selected from ethoxylated alcohols, ethoxylated acetyleneic diols, phosphate esters, dialkyl sulfosuccinates, and mixtures thereof. This aqueous dispersion improves the incorporation of the HM-PAPEs into aqueous based protective coatings. This dispersion also improves water-borne coating compositions that optionally contain latex.
摘要:
A synthetic polymer has a water-soluble or water-swellable polymer backbone and terminal groups and/or intermediate groups of blocks of hydrophobes of alkyl- or aryl compounds containing a polymerizable cyclic monomer or a polymerizable double bond (or alkene) group or derivatives thereof. The blocks of hydrophobes are composed of two or more units of the same or different hydrophobes. These synthetic polymers are used as rheology modifiers, especially in latex paints.
