20150191612 | ANTI-CRACKING AGENT FOR WATER-BORNE ACRYLIC PAINT AND COATING COMPOSITIONS - This invention relates to water-borne acrylic paints and coatings, especially to agents that can be used to reduce the amount of VOCs to yield satisfactory paints or coatings. It has been found that cellulose based particles, which comprise cell wall material and their networks of cellulose based fibers and nanofibrils can be used to accomplish a reduction in VOCs and at the same time increase hardness and lower cracking of the dried acrylic paints and coatings. It is assumed that the organization of the cellulose fibrils, as it exists in the parenchymal cell walls, is at least partly retained in the cellulose based particles of the invention, even though part of the pectin and hemicellulose is removed there from. | 07-09-2015 |
20150203737 | PLANT DERIVED CELLULOSE COMPOSITIONS FOR USE AS DRILLING MUDS - This invention relates to water-based well drilling fluids. It has been found that cellulose based particles, which comprise cell wall material and their networks of cellulose based fibers and nanofibrils can be used to produce suspensions having viscosity and rheological properties particularly suitable for use as a drilling fluid. It is assumed that the organization of the cellulose fibrils, as it exists in the parenchymal cell walls, is at least partly retained in the cellulose based particles of the invention, even though part of the pectin and hemicellulose is removed there from. Breaking plant-based pulp down into this kind of cellulose based particles involves fewer and gentler processes than to break the pulp down further into cellulose nanofibrils, and therefore the present cellulose based particles can be produced much faster and at lower cost than completely unraveled cellulose nanofibrils. The well drilling fluids based on the cellulose material of this invention are stable over a wide range of operating temperatures. | 07-23-2015 |

20090144289 | Service Oriented File System - A computer-aided system and method is disclosed for designing a service-oriented file system, whose intended function is implemented by a virtual file system extended with a service port mechanism. Each service port in the service-oriented file system is associated with a collection of software applications acting as services that operate on the data provided to the service port. The service port mechanism allows for starting, controlling, and terminating software services within the file system by means of file manipulations. Service requests are initiated by moving data into the service port of a service-oriented file system through the creation of a regular file in a directory under the service port. The service port engine then autonomously starts, controls, and terminates an application that processes the data and also stores the processing results into the file for retrieval. An embodiment of the invention may comprise a distributed file system for autonomous remote servicing of service requests by disparate network hosts. Thus, by directly overriding the basic file operations in a (distributed) file system and by changing the file system semantics to include process creation and control, an organized and transparent environment is created for reliable and secure ubiquitous distributed processing. | 06-04-2009 |
