The token is registered in an access control list (ACL), and token permission settings in the ACL are utilized to control access to the object. The URL may be embedded in the content. When a viewer requests the content, the object may be retrieved from the storage location using the URL. The user may revoke access to the object by changing the token permission settings in the ACL. | 07-29-2010 |
20130066975 | Group Opt-In Links - Techniques for sharing of items from online storage (e.g., cloud storage) are described herein. In some embodiments, sharing links can be configured as group opt-in links designed to provide recipients with an option to join a group having permissions on a corresponding shared item. A sharing link to an item may be generated and provided to a user for distribution to recipients in various ways. When selected by recipients, the sharing link causes an option to be exposed to the recipients to opt-in to a group having permissions on a corresponding item. Group membership is determined by recipients that exercise the option and recipients that opt-in are granted permissions on the item established for the group. Subsequently, an owner of the item/group may view a list of recipients who have opted-in as members and manage corresponding permissions on an individual basis. | 03-14-2013 |

20120157686 | a-OLEFIN MANUFACTURING PROCESS - In an α-olefin manufacturing process by the oligomerization of ethylene using an iron complex of a diimine of a 2,6-diacylpyridine or a 2,6-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, in which certain substituted iminoaryl groups are present, less higher molecular weight unwanted products are produced when the diimine and/or its precursor arylamine does not have impurities with substitution on a second ortho position to the imino group. This leads to less fouling of the process apparatus and higher yields of desired α-olefins. | 06-21-2012 |
20120271014 | OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION PROCESS - A polymerization process for copolymerizing ethylene and a series of α-olefins to form a branched polyethylene, in which the series of α-olefins is generated in-situ by an ethylene oligomerization catalyst, is improved if the oligomerization catalyst has a Schulz-Flory constant of about 0.30 to about 0.55. This makes very little higher molecular weight α-olefins, which allows for easy removal of unpolymerized α-olefins from the polyolefin product. | 10-25-2012 |
20120302809 | PRODUCTION OF ALPHA-OLEFINS - Higher molecular weight linear α-olefins are produced by the oligomerization of ethylene using certain iron complexes of 2,6-diacylpyridinedimimines or 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydedimines as catalysts. These iron complexes are more sterically hindered than those heretofore used. The resulting α-olefins are useful as comonomers in olefin polymerizations. | 11-29-2012 |
20120309915 | ETHYLENE POLYMERIZATION PROCESS AND POLYOLEFIN - A polymerization to form a branched polyolefin, in which polymerization an ethylene copolymerization catalyst and an ethylene oligomerization catalyst form a series of ethylene oligomers that are α-olefins are both present, gives an improved polyethylene if the oligomerization catalyst has a to relatively high Schulz-Flory constant. | 12-06-2012 |
20120309916 | OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION PROCESS - An ethylene oligomerization catalyst that oligmerizes ethylene to a series of α-olefins and that has a Schulz-Flory constant of about 0.75 to 0.995 produces a stream of α-olefins. This stream is then added to a vessel containing ethylene and a copolymerization catalyst that copolymerizes ethylene and α-olefins. The resulting branched polyethylene often has good processing properties. The good processing is presumably due to the presence of “long chain branching”. Such polymers are useful for films and other packaging materials, and for molding resins for molding parts such as industrial, automotive or electrical parts. | 12-06-2012 |
20130012659 | LUBRICANT COMPONENT - A lubricant component is a copolymer of ethylene and α-olefins made by forming a series of α-olefins by oligomerization of ethylene using an oligomerization catalyst, and then copolymerizing the α-olefins and ethylene using a transition metalcontaining polymerization catalyst. The copolymer, which often has a high Viscosity Index, may be used, for example, in a lubricant as the base oil or a viscosity index modifier. The polyolefin may also be a component of a lubricant additive, meant to be added to an already formulated lubricant to improve the lubricant's properties. | 01-10-2013 |
