An electrosurgical instrument including a jaw part made up of mutually movable instrument legs which have facing sides on which one or more electrode areas are arranged / formed in each case, the movement of the instrument legs relative to each other being able to be limited by at least one first spacer acting on proximal end portions of the instrument legs and at least one second spacer acting on distal end portions of the instrument legs. At least one of the spacers on at least one electrode is manufactured from an electrically conductive material and is connected to the electrode in electroconductive fashion. Furthermore, the spacer cooperates with a local spacer abutment surface which is made of a non-conductive material and arranged in electrically insulating manner on at least one opposing electrode.

Systems and methods that control the size and composition of emulsified droplets, multi-lamellar and asymmetric vesicles, encapsulation of reagents, membrane proteins, and sorting of vesicles / droplets. More particularly, microfluidic devices for controlled viscous shearing of oil-water emulsions of micro- and nano-scale droplets, the subsequent formation of amphiphilic vesicles such as liposomes, polymer vesicles, micelles, and the like, the post-assembly and post-processing of the droplets including splitting, fusing, sorting and the like, polymer emulsions, and the integration of amphiphilic vesicle production-line on a single microfluidic chip. Preferably, the microfluidic device enables oil-water co-flows with tunable viscous shear forces higher than the immiscible interfacial tension forces that generate favorable conditions for droplet formation.

The present invention is an apparatus for trimming plants, in particular, buds and flowers, to remove unwanted plant material. A typical application would be to process a plant to leave only trimmed buds and flowers for use in potpourri, fragrant sashes, or as a prelude to further processing of essential oils. The apparatus employs a combination of a slotted metal drum and a lawn mower type cutting reel that are rotated in the same direction, but at different speeds, to create a cutting interface that shears off the unwanted plant material. The apparatus further employs a vacuum manifold to collect the debris and transfer it into a waste collection device.

The invention relates to a nonclay one-way plugging drilling fluid. The raw material comprises the following components by mass part: 5-40 parts of main anchoring agent, 1-5 parts of auxiliary anchoring agent, 20-150 parts of one-way plugging agent, 5-20 parts of inhibiting agent, 0-20 parts of lubricating agent, 0-500 parts of weighting agent and 1000 parts of water, wherein the main anchoring agent is made of polyacrylamide, polyanionic cellulose or sulfonate copolymer fluid loss additive DSP-2; the auxiliary anchoring agent is made of xanthan gum or sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; the one-way plugging agent is made of polymer elastic microspheres SFH-1 or rubber particles; the inhibiting agent is made of amino polyol, potassium polyacrylate or polyhydric alcohols; the lubricating agent is made of the drilling fluid FYR lubricating agent, white oil or black lead; and the weighting agent is made of one of sodium formate and potassium formate or the mixture of sodium formate and potassium formate. The drilling fluid has the characteristic of one-way plugging, so as to be taken as drilling fluid, completion fluid or workover fluid; and the remarkable effects of improving the drilling rate, stabilizing the well wall and protecting a reservoir are achieved.

A blocked polyisocyanate adduct including 5 to 95% by weight of at least one isocyanate component having at least one NCO group, the isocyanate component selected from the group consisting of aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and aromatic isocyanates, wherein the isocyanate has an average molecular weight of up to 1000 g / mol and an average NCO functionality of 2–4; 5 to 70% by weight of at least one hydrophilicizing component containing at least one group which is reactive toward the at least one NCO group; at least one blocking agent for blocking from 95 to 100% of the NCO groups which do not react with the hydrophilicizing component; and up to 15% by weight of at least one neutralizing agent.

The invention discloses a pressure-sensitive adhesive for wafer grinding and a preparation method thereof. The adhesive comprises a plastic base material, an adhesive layer coated on the base plastic material, and a release film which covers the adhesive layer. The preparation method of the pressure-sensitive adhesive comprises the following steps of: A) preparing a prepolymer; B) preparing an adhesive; C) preparing an adhesive tape. Compared with the prior art, the preparation method has the advantages that the dose and addition way of an initiating agent as well as the polymerizing temperature are controlled to realize the maximum molecular weight as well as high cohesive strength, and the problems of relatively high peeling strength and small shearing strength of the traditional pressure-sensitive adhesive are solved. In addition, a hard monomer added brings the pressure-sensitive adhesive with high shearing strength, and the demand on wafer grinding is met. The pressure-sensitive adhesive for wafer grinding is different from other adhesive tapes for wafer grinding in that a silane coupling agent bringing water resistance is directly polymerized onto a polymer molecular chain, instead of being directly added. Therefore, the migration of micromolecule in storage process is avoided, and the resulting influence to the effect or the resulting residue on a wafer is removed.

According to an aspect of the present invention, in the extruder, the mixing section in which kneading with a high shear force is conducted is disposed within a range where the molten resin does not generate excessive heat, and hence the cellulose resin can be sufficiently melt-kneaded without generating excessive heat, and thus a cellulose resin film being uniform and having excellent optical properties can be obtained.
