20080264523 | Method for Applying a Phosphate Coating on a Steel or Iron Part, and Corresponding Steel or Iron Part - Method for applying a phosphate coating on an iron or steel part, and corresponding iron or steel part. The method according to the invention consists in a first coating step with a first phosphating, through which a first crystalline layer of iron and manganese phosphates is obtained, an intermediate step of partial pickling of said first crystalline layer of phosphates, leaving the base metal partially uncovered, and a second coating step comprising a second phosphating through which a second crystalline layer of iron and manganese phosphates is obtained, covering the partially pickled first layer of phosphates and the base metal. The method provides a coating with a lower thickness, a finer crystallisation and a lower rugosity Rk than the one that can be obtained by a simple phosphating. | 10-30-2008 |

20140127458 | SLATE-LIKE COMPOSITE MATERIALS AND METHODS OF PREPARATION THEREOF - The invention provides novel slate-like composite materials and methods for preparation thereof. The slate-like composite materials can be readily produced from widely available, low cost precursor materials by a process suitable for large-scale production. The precursor materials include calcium silicate, for example, wollastonite, and particulate filler materials which comprise silicon dioxide-rich materials such as quartz, mica, feldspar, sand and glass. Additives can include calcium carbonate-rich and magnesium carbonate-rich materials. Various additives can be used to fine-tune the physical appearance and mechanical properties of the composite material, such as colorants such as particles of colored materials, such as colored glass, colored sand, and colored quartz particles, and pigments (e.g., black iron oxide, cobalt oxide and chromium oxide). These slate-like composite materials exhibit visual patterns unique to slate as well as display compressive strength, flexural strength and water absorption similar to that of slate. | 05-08-2014 |
20140342124 | WOOD-LIKE COMPOSITE MATERIALS AND METHODS OF PREPARATION THEREOF - The invention provides novel wood-like composite materials and methods for preparation thereof. The wood-like composite materials can be readily produced from widely available, low cost precursor materials by a production process that involves casting in a mold that is suitable for large-scale production. The precursor materials include calcium silicate, for example, wollastonite, and particulate filler materials which comprise silicon dioxide-rich materials such as quartz, mica, feldspar, sand and glass. Additives can include calcium carbonate-rich and magnesium carbonate-rich materials. Various additives can be used to fine-tune the physical appearance and mechanical properties of the composite material, such as colorants such as particles of colored materials, such as, and pigments (e.g., black iron oxide, cobalt oxide and chromium oxide). These wood-like composite materials exhibit visual patterns unique to wood as well as display compressive strength, flexural strength and water absorption superior to that of wood. | 11-20-2014 |

20090130646 | BLOOD COLLECTION DEVICE, METHOD, AND SYSTEM FOR USING THE SAME - Disclosed is a fluid collection device wherein multiple, individual samples of fluid can be collected simultaneously. The device includes a chamber and an adapter which substantially and simultaneously distributes the blood to individual chambers with chamber specific additives. Also included is a system for using the blood collection device, preferably within a diagnostic testing laboratory. | 05-21-2009 |
20110187021 | Device For Separating Components of a Fluid Sample - A device for separating heavier and lighter fractions of a fluid sample is provided, the device including a container and a unitary separator located therein, the separator having an overall density between the heavier and light fractions. The separator is capable of moving between the fractions upon centrifugation, and sealing the fractions from one another when centrifugation ends. | 08-04-2011 |
20130230438 | Device for Separating Components of a Fluid Sample - A separator for use in a container for a biological fluid is disclosed. The separator includes a separator body having a first region at least partially made of a first material having a first density, and a second region at least partially made of a second material having a second density different from the first density. The separator has an overall density intermediate the densities of a first phase and a second phase of the biological fluid. At least a portion of the separator is deformable between a first condition in which the biological fluid can pass between an inner surface of the container and the separator, and a second condition in which at least a portion of the separator prevents the biological fluid from passing between the inner surface of the container and the separator. | 09-05-2013 |
20130241099 | Device for Separating Components of a Fluid Sample - A separator for use in a container for a biological fluid is disclosed. The separator includes a separator body having a first region at least partially made of a first material having a first density, and a second region at least partially made of a second material having a second density different from the first density. The separator has an overall density intermediate the densities of a first phase and a second phase of the biological fluid. At least a portion of the separator is deformable between a first condition in which the biological fluid can pass between an inner surface of the container and the separator, and a second condition in which at least a portion of the separator prevents the biological fluid from passing between the inner surface of the container and the separator. | 09-19-2013 |
20150231626 | Method and Apparatus for Microorganism Detection - A method for detecting the presence of a microorganism in a fluid sample is disclosed. The method includes providing a fluid specimen within a specimen collection container having a sidewall defining an interior therein. The interior includes a mechanical separator adapted for separating the fluid sample into first and second phases within the specimen collection container and a sensing element capable of detecting the presence of a microorganism disposed therein. The method includes subjecting the specimen collection container to applied rotational force to isolate a concentrated microorganism region. The method also includes detecting by a sensing element the presence or absence of a microorganism within the concentrated microorganism region. | 08-20-2015 |
