Filed:

Jan 8, 1992

Appl. No.:

7/818192

Inventors:

Murali K. Akkapeddi - Morristown NJ
Michael F. Cummings - Madison NJ
Gerald J. Dege - Flanders NJ

Assignee:

Allied Signal

International Classification:

C08G 6928

US Classification:

528347

Abstract:

A process of preparing homopolymers and copolymers of dodecane terephthalamide having a high melting temperature and dimensional stability, comprising the steps of forming an aqueous suspension of a prepolymer comprising substantially equimolar diacid/diamine admixture of 1,12-dodecanediamine, terephthalic acid, and optionally at least one additonal comonomer in a reactor at a reaction temperature below the melting temperature of the resulting polyamide polymer; drying the prepolymer; and polycondensating the dried prepolymer in an extruder, particularly a vented single screw extruder, to form the polyamide polymer.

International Classification:

B29B 722

US Classification:

425186

Abstract:

A cleaning insert for insertion into a disassembled braebender-type mixing apparatus, wherein the inserted cleaning insert separates the two cavities of the apparatus allowing each to be cleaned of reside from a polymeric composition without permitting the passage of loosened residue therebetween. Also provided is an improved method of cleaning a braebender-type mixing apparatus utilizing the cleaning insert.

Appl. No.:

9/343080

International Classification:

H01L 2144

US Classification:

438122

Abstract:

A method of making a circuitized substrate which may be utilized as a chip carrier structure. The method involves the steps of providing a dielectric member and routing out a preselected portion of the base member to form an aperture. Metallization of the dielectric member and the walls of the aperture then occurs, followed by circuitization of the surfaces of the dielectric member. Direct metallization of the aperture walls eliminates many manufacturing steps previously required to metallize the aperture walls.

International Classification:

H02K 1/27
H02K 7/00
H02K 7/02
H02K 7/18
H02K 7/116

Abstract:

A motor comprising a main shaft, a first rotating member mounted on the main shaft, the first rotating member comprising a first arm extending radially outward from the main shaft, the first arm having a length L, a second arm extending radially outward from the main shaft, a first magnet mounted on the first arm such that a first pole faces a recess between the first and second arms, and a second magnet mounted on the second arm such that the first pole faces the recess between the first and second arms. The motor further comprising a piston movable towards and away from the main shaft in a generally radial direction and positioned proximate the first rotating member, the piston comprising a first magnet.

International Classification:

H02K 1/27
H02K 1/28

Abstract:

A rotating member comprising a central portion having a center aperture, a first arm extending radially outward from the central portion, the first arm having a length L, a second arm extending radially outward from the central portion, a first magnet mounted on the first arm such that a magnetic field of the first magnet extends into a recess between the first and second arms, and a second magnet mounted on the second arm such that a magnetic field of the second magnet extends into the recess between the first and second arms.
