TL;DR: In this article, a method of and apparatus for separating component gases in a gas mixture employing a glassy polymer membrane at temperatures at or slightly above the freezing point of the liquid present so as to achieve superior separation of gas components.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a laminate which consisted of a plastic substrate having a surface, an adhesion promoter layer which is a first plasma polymerized organosilicon compound deposited on the surface of the substrate in the substantial absence of oxygen; and a protective coating layer which was a second plasma polymerised organosILicon compound, at a power density from about 10 6 J/kg to about 10 8 J/ kg, and in the presence of a sufficient stoichiometric excess of oxygen to form a silicon polymer of SiO 1.8-2.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multilayered reflective body which is thermo-formable and capable of being fabricated into films, sheets and a variety of parts while maintaining a uniform reflective appearance is provided.

TL;DR: In this paper, a polyester-carbonate membrane was proposed for separating oxygen from a mixture of gases comprising nitrogen and oxygen, and the method consisted of contacting the gas mixture with a thin, non-porous membrane comprising a polystercarbonate described hereinbefore under conditions such that the oxygen selectively permeates through the membrane to the other side of the membrane; and removing the permeated oxygen from the other part of the polyester membrane, wherein separation factor for the oxygen and nitrogen is 6.5 or greater at about 24° C.

TL;DR: In this article, a "cardo" diphenylene group was added to a dinucleophilic monomer with at least one dtglycidyl ether of a cardo bisphenol, such as bis(hydroxyphenyl)fluorene, phenolphthalein, or phenolphthalimidine.
