20100227143 | PROCESS FOR FORMING IMPROVED FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITES AND COMPOSITES THEREFROM - A thermoplastic copolyester composition that is able to maintain its color and mechanical strength after exposure to full weathering is provided. More specifically, a stabilizing system is employed in the composition that contains a mixture of one or more light stabilizers (e.g., hindered amines, UV absorbers, etc.), antioxidants (e.g., sterically hindered phenols, organophosphorous compounds, etc.), and secondary amines.

A flash memory system includes an array of memory devices divided into a plurality of paired sectors, a global bit line (GBL) configured to provide high voltage to each respective sector during erase and program operations coupled to each of the plurality of sectors, and a plurality of sense amplifiers coupled between a respective pair of sectors. Methods for operating a flash memory are also provided. One method includes providing high voltage, via the GBL, to the paired sectors during erase and program operations and providing low voltage, via a local bit line, to each memory device during read operations. | 06-06-2013 |

20110185900 | METHOD FOR BUILDING REMEDIATION CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE DRYWALL - A method of remediating at least a portion of a building that contains defective drywall is presented. The method comprises removal of the defective drywall and cross-contaminated drywall, actively desorbing volatile compounds from the building materials exposed after removal of the drywall and passively desorbing remaining contaminants by depositing a film of an absorbent on the accessible surfaces of the exposed building materials. Active desorbing of volatiles can be carried out with forced thermal desorption, where the interior surfaces of the building are heated while the air is removed and replaced with air free of the volatile compounds. The absorbent for passive desorption can be a nanoparticulate metal oxide. | 08-04-2011 |
