A method of electropolishing utilizing a solution comprising a major amount of phosphoric acid, a minor amount of oxidizing component selected from chromium sesquioxide and a trivalent titanium oxide, and a minor amount of current supporting electrolyte. In particular embodiments, the electrolyte comprises ions of nickel and ions of one or more of iron and copper. The used bath can be reconstituted by the addition of phosphoric acid to adjust its specific gravity and may be purged of contaminati...

A method is provided for determining the presence of compounds in aqueous solutions by utilizing repeated equilibrations of a nonreactive gas with an aqueous sample containing such compounds and analyzing the gas from such repeated equilibrations to determine compounds present in the liquid.

A method of printing mosaic characters which may be used in telegraphic printers, wherein a column of styli are employed twice at two different vertical locations to print a single column or partial column of dots. The number of individual styli and the actuators therefor are thus halved over those required in prior art stylus heads. The complexity and size of the styli and actuators make this a substantial advantage.

This invention relates to the surgical use of monomeric esters of .alpha.-cyanoacrylic acid having the formula ##SPC1## Wherein R is a saturated hydrocarbon radical of two to 10 carbon atoms for the purpose of bonding together living tissue.

Method of drafting sliver which has at least some of the staple fibers therein longer than the distance between center lines of adjacent pairs of rolls in a drafting system.

A method of producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean hydrocarbon containing formation and reducing the flow of gas from a gas cap of the formation by passing a preselected volume of polymeric solution into the formation at an elevation lower than the gas cap, terminating the injecting of the polymeric solution, and producing fluid entering the well bore while at least intermittently injecting one of a gas-water admixture or volumes of gas and water into the gas cap.

A method and apparatus for packaging products, such as assemblies of bacon slices and the like, which are advanced from a supply source in random order on backing boards having identifying indicia for controlling certain of the subsequent packaging operations and the application of the proper one of two differnt labels according to the indicia on the respective boards.
