| 20100167969 | MARINE LUBRICANT FOR FUEL OIL HAVING HIGH AND LOW SULPHUR CONTENTS - The present invention for a two-stroke marine engine, which can be used with both high-sulphur content fuel oils and low-sulphur content fuel oils. It relates to a cylinder lubricant having a BN determined according to the standard ASTM D-2896 greater than or equal to 40 milligrams of potash per gram of lubricant, comprising a lubricant base stock for marine engines and at least one overbased detergent based on alkali metals or alkaline-earth metals, characterized in that it also contains a quantity of 0.01% to 10% preferably 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the total weight of the lubricant, of one or more (A) compounds chosen from the primary, secondary or tertiary monoalcohols the alkyl or alkylene chain of which is saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched and comprises at least 12 carbon atoms. This lubricant has a sufficient neutralization capacity vis-à-vis the sulphuric acid formed during the combustion of high-sulphur fuel oils, while limiting the formation of deposits during the use of low-sulphur fuel oils. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20110077177 | MARINE LUBRICANT - The present invention relates to a cylinder lubricant having a BN, determined according to the ASTM D-2896 standard, of greater than or equal to 40 milligrams of potassium hydroxide per gram of lubricant, comprising a lubricant base oil for a marine engine and at least one overbased detergent that is based on alkali or alkaline-earth metals, and which also contains an amount of 0.01% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the lubricant, of one or more compounds (A) chosen from esters of saturated fatty monoacids comprising at least 14 carbon atoms and of alcohols comprising at most 6 carbon atoms. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20090078644 | MEMBRANE BAGS WITH SEAMLESS MEMBRANE SUBSTANCE, USES THEREOF, FILTRATION UNITS THEREWITH AND MANUFACTURING PROCESSES - Disclosed are seamless membrane bags for example, a membrane bag comprising a spacer fabric and a volume for permeate collection, the spacer fabric comprising a first part and a second part that are spaced apart and tied together at a predefined distance by monofilament thread and the first and second parts are at least partially embedded with membrane substance and the volume for permeate collection is interposed between the first and second parts. The membrane substance embeds portions of the monofilament thread and fills the spacer fabric along the border of the membrane bag. The membrane substance completely enclosing the volume is seamless. Also disclosed are processes for producing such bags, a filtration unit comprising such a membrane bag and their uses in the separation of fluids, vapours and particles. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090304963 | KNITTED SUPPORT FOR TUBULAR MEMBRANES - A method of manufacturing a reinforced tubular membrane comprises the steps of manufacturing the tubular support from monofilament thread, impregnating the support with membrane dope and adjusting the inner and the outer diameter of the membrane. A coating apparatus comprises a casting bob and an orifice to adjust respectively the inner and outer diameter of the membrane. A tubular reinforced polymeric membrane comprises a tubular support and membrane substance. The tubular support is made of monofilament thread and has a sufficiently open structure (openings larger than 0.1 mm). Touching and/or engaging parts of the thread may be linked prior to impregnating the support with membrane dope. The support may comprise loops of the monofilament thread, which are also linked. | 12-10-2009 |
