Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080318687Live Game Lobby - A three-dimensional rendering of a game space for a first instance of a game is displayed. The first instance of the game requests position information of avatars in game spaces of other instances of the game. Position information and a player identification for an avatar in another instance of the game is received. A position object is generated based on the position information and player identification, the position object being unable to interact with other objects in the first instance of the game. A graphical representation of the position object is displayed in the three-dimensional rendering of the game space of the first instance of the game, the graphical representation of the position object being positioned in the three-dimensional rendering of the game space based on the received position information.12-25-2008

20090298698HIGH-TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR LAYER ARRANGEMENT - A high-temperature superconductor layer arrangement includes at least one substrate and a textured buffer layer made of oxidic material that permits textured growth of a high-temperature superconductor. Surprisingly, a layer of the buffer material made of a rare-earth element cerium oxide containing lanthanum as the rare-earth element may be used to produce a homogeneous buffer layer in just one coating operation, where appropriate. The buffer layer material may be a rare-earth oxide of the general formula: Ln′12-03-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110046272FILLED RUBBER COMPOSITIONS - The present invention relates to a curable rubber composition comprising an organic elastomer, a filler and at least one curing agent for the elastomer. Such curable rubber compositions are widely used in the production of cured rubber articles, such as tyres, belts and hoses. The composition contains a branched silicone resin having Si-bonded hydroxyl groups or azo groups. This may lead to a reduction in the mixing energy required for processing, particularly in the energy required in the first (non-productive) mixing phase to give good dispersion of the filler in the organic elastomer. Use of the branched silicone resin can also accelerate cure (vulcanization), thus reducing the required cure time or reducing the amount of cure accelerator required.02-24-2011

20110172367Grafted Polyethylene - A process for grafting hydrolysable silane groups to polyethylene includes reacting polyethylene with an unsaturated silane having at least one hydrolysable group bonded to Si, in the presence of a compound capable of generating free radical sites in the polyethylene. The grafted polyethylene prepared by the process can be shaped into a pipe and crosslinked by water flowing through the pipe.07-14-2011
20110178198POLYMERS MODIFIED BY SILANES - The invention relates to a process for grafting hydrolysable silane groups to a polyolefin, comprising reacting the polyolefin with an unsaturated silane, containing an olefinic —C═C— bond or acetylenic —C≡C— bond and having at least one hydrolysable group bonded to Si, or a hydrolysate thereof, in the presence of means capable of generating free radical sites in the polymer. The silane contains an aromatic ring or a further olefinic double bond or acetylenic unsaturation, the aromatic ring or the further olefinic double bond or acetylenic unsaturation being conjugated with the olefinic —C═C— or acetylenic —C≡C— unsaturation of the silane. The unsaturated silane may also contains electron-withdrawing moiety with respect to the olefinic —C═C— or acetylenic —C≡C— bond. The invention permits to provide a silane-modified polyolefin having a high grafting efficiency while limiting/preventing polymer degradation by chain scission. The silane-modified polyolefin can be further reacted with a polar surface, a filler or a polar polymer or reacted on itself to crosslink the polyolefin and obtain enhanced physical properties of the composites made thereof.07-21-2011
20110190411Modified Polyolefins - The invention relates to a process for grafting hydrolysable silane groups to a polyolefin in which ethylene units, if present, form less than 50% by weight of the total polyolefin. The polyolefin is reacted with an unsaturated silane, having at least one hydrolysable group bonded to Si, or a hydrolysate thereof, in the presence of means capable of generating free radical sites in the polyolefin. The unsaturated silane has the formula R″—CH═CH—Z (I) or R″—C≡C—Z (II) in which Z represents an electron-withdrawing moiety substituted by a —SiR08-04-2011
