20140073725 | POLY(PHENYLENE ETHER) COMPOSITION, ARTICLE, AND METHOD - A composition includes specific amounts of a poly(phenylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymer reaction product and an impact modifier. The poly(phenylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymer reaction product includes a poly(phenylene ether) and a poly(phenylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymer. The composition exhibits a desirable balance of impact strength, heat resistance, and flame retardancy while minimizing or excluding flame retardant additives such as organophosphate esters and halogenated flame retardants. | 03-13-2014 |

20110160421 | Process for Formation of Poly(arylene Ethers) with Lower Fine Particle Content - The invention is directed to a method for producing poly(arylene) ethers with improved particle size characteristics. The improved particle size characteristics of the polyphenylene ether include one or both of: (i) up to about 50 weight percent of particles smaller than 38 micrometers; and a (ii) mean particle size greater than 100 or more micrometers. | 06-30-2011 |

20130225783 | POLY(PHENYLENE ETHER) PROCESS - A method of purifying a poly(phenylene ether) is described. The method includes mixing a poly(phenylene ether) solution comprising a poly(phenylene ether) and a poly(phenylene ether) solvent with first washing solvents including a C1-C4 alkanol and water to form a first liquid phase including poly(phenylene ether) and poly(phenylene ether) solvent, and a second liquid phase comprising C1-C4 alkanol and water, and separating the first liquid phase from the second liquid phase. The first and second liquid phases combined comprise about 60 to about 95 weight percent poly(phenylene ether) solvent, about 4 to about 32 weight percent C1-C4 alkanol, and about 1 to about 36 weight percent water. When optionally combined with evaporative removal of the poly(phenylene ether) solvent, the method reduces C1-C4 alkanol usage compared to the antisolvent precipitation method, and it produces poly(phenylene ether) having reduced catalyst metal ion residue and reduced color. | 08-29-2013 |

20120021271 | BATTERY CELL SYSTEM WITH INTERCONNECTED FRAMES - A battery cell assembly includes a plurality of sub-assemblies. Each sub-assembly includes a heat sink and a first frame and a second frame disposed on opposite sides of the heat sink. The sub-assemblies are stacked to form a plurality of cell pockets that receive a battery cell. The battery cell assembly further includes a plurality of tie rods for fixing the plurality of sub-assemblies together. The first frame is formed with a plurality of through holes, and the second frame is formed with a plurality of protrusions with a hole extending therethrough. The frames are brought together such that each protrusion is at least partially received in a respective through hole. The interior surfaces of corresponding protrusions and through holes of the stack of frames form a passage for one of the tie rods to extend through. | 01-26-2012 |
