| 20120079834 | MAGNETIC REGENERATOR, A METHOD OF MAKING A MAGNETIC REGENERATOR, A METHOD OF MAKING AN ACTIVE MAGNETIC REFRIGERATOR AND AN ACTICVE MAGNETIC REFRIGERATOR - The invention provides a method of making a magnetic regenerator for an active magnetic refrigerator, the method comprising: forming a magnetic regenerator from a slurry or a paste containing a magnetocaloric material the magnetic regenerator being formed to have plural paths therethrough for the flow of a heat transfer fluid; and varying the composition of the magnetocaloric material so that the magnetic transition temperature of the magnetic regenerator varies along the paths. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20110239662 | REFRIGERATION DEVICE AND A METHOD OF REFRIGERATING - The invention provides a refrigeration device, comprising: a magnetic field source; a magnetocaloric bed, one of the magnetocaloric bed and the magnetic field source being arranged to substantially surround the other, the magnetocaloric bed being arranged for relative rotation with respect to the magnetic field source such that during said relative rotation, the magnetic field experienced by parts of the magnetocaloric bed varies; plural pathways formed within the magnetocaloric bed for the flow of a working fluid during the relative rotation between the magnetocaloric bed and the permanent magnet; and a flow distributor placed at each end of the magnetocaloric bed, for controlling the part of the magnetocaloric bed able to receive working fluid during a cycle of operation. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110045628 | METHOD OF THERMOCLEAVING A POLYMER LAYER - A method of thermocleaving a thermocleavable polymer layer which is in thermal contact with a heat sensitive component that is not tolerant of the temperature required for thermocleavage of the thermocleavable polymer layer, in which the thermocleavable polymer layer is illuminated with a light source having a wavelength range more strongly absorbed by the thermocleavable polymer and substantially less strongly absorbed by the heat sensitive component, such that the thermocleavable polymer layer reaches a temperature sufficient to cause thermocleavage of the polymer without causing detrimental heating to the heat sensitive component. Further provided is apparatus for carrying out the above method. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110030789 | AIR STABLE PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE - A method of forming a conducting polymer based photovoltaic device including: (a) providing a transparent first electrode; (b) providing the transparent first electrode with a layer of metal oxide nanoparticles, wherein the metal oxide is selected from the group consisting of: TiO | 02-10-2011 |
| 20090280245 | DECOMPOSABLE VEHICLES IN PRINTING OR COATING COMPOSITIONS - A printing or coating composition has a non-volatile liquid vehicle carrying a conductive polymer to be deposited on a substrate and is cleavable by heat or acidification without decomposition of said material, cleavage of said vehicle producing decomposition products that are more volatile than said vehicle and which can be evaporated to dry the composition. Suitably, that vehicle is a carbonic acid diester or a malonic acid diester, e.g. of the formula: wherein R | 11-12-2009 |
