US Patent:

40155358, Apr 5, 1977

Filed:

Oct 22, 1976

Appl. No.:

5/734795

Inventors:

John W. Bond - Alexandria VA

Assignee:

The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army - Washington DC

International Classification:

F42B 1126
F42B 1300

US Classification:

102 923

Abstract:

The invention relates to hypervelocity projectiles of such mass, configuron, density and material that upon impact with targeted armor backface spallation occurs in which a large quantity of fragments are ejected from the backface although there has been no penetration of the projectile through the armor.

Appl. No.:

8/487326

Edward J. Dalgewicz - Millstone NJ
John Bond - Pittsburgh PA
Richard Freundlich - Plainsboro NJ

Assignee:

Lawson Mardon Thermaplate Corporation - Piscataway NJ

International Classification:

C08G 6348

US Classification:

525 64

Abstract:

Polyester composition with improved impact properties, improved oxygen permeability and improved dimensional shrinkage during heating. Impact modifiers are dissolved into a molten polyester to form a eutectic alloy. On slow cooling, the eutectic alloy of the invention freezes to form a mixture of particles of the impact modifier embedded in a matrix of the polyester. By controlling the solidification of the melt, the size and distribution of the precipitates from the melt can be controlled, which allows control of the mechanical properties. The precipitation can also be controlled either by homogenous nucleation or by heterogeneous nucleation through the addition of a nucleating agent or the introduction of a suitable surface for nucleation. The invention also provides a process of manufacturing the above polyester, an article comprising this polyester and a process for making this article. The crystalline polyester article is useful as a container for microwavable, ovenable and/or frozen foods, and has improved gas barrier properties, impact strength, and post-mold dimensional stability between -60. degree. C. and 200. degree. C.

Appl. No.:

5/729745

Inventors:

John W. Bond - Alexandria VA

International Classification:

H01L 3104

US Classification:

136 89P

Abstract:

Solar cells are interconnected by filaments stretched crosswise between the edges of a rectangular frame to form a gridwork, and thereby produce a lightweight inexpensive support that is not susceptible to damage from winds, snow, and ice. Additionally, the top of the cells have thin resistive wires mounted thereto for preventing snow and ice accumulation.
