Reinforced plastics materials
ing agent since the glass fibre surface reacts giving a good bond and 'healing' any handling damage. Fibre-reinforced cement panels and processes for their preparation (Kubota Limited, J a p a n ) B r Pat 1 548 534 (18 July 1979) The separation of a colouring layer from the main body of asbestos cement tiles during freeze/thawing is prevented by incorporating a resin at the interface. Treatment of refuse (Helvisol AG, Switzerland )Br Pat 1 548 660 (18 July 1979) A method is described which converts composted refuse into a filler suitable for incorporating into resins such as polyesters. High levels can be incorporated and the composite has, for example, good flame and water resistance. Alkali resistant glass compositions and alkali resistant glass fibres. (Kanebo Limited, Nippon Electric Glass Company Limited, Japan )Br Pat 1 548 776 (18 July 1979) A low melting zirconia glass is described.

The water produced during the curing of resoles is removed by reaction with plaster of Paris and boric anhydride thereby enabling a non porous glass fibre composite to be produced. A method for preparing fibres for mixing into a sprayed concrete mass and a device for performing the method (Bertil Sandell, Switzerland )Br Pat 1 549 299 (25 July 1979) A method of forming steel fibres into bundles (for mixing into concrete) which subsequently are separated and alligned, is described. Improvements in the production of carbon fibre reinforced carbon composite materials Dunlop Limited, U K ) Br Pat 1 549 687 (1 August 1979) Layers of oxidised woven pan fibres are needle punched, carbonized, and carbon vapour deposited into the instertices.

Process for the production of activated carbon fibres ~ o h o Beslon Company Limited, Japan ) Br Pat 1 549 759 (8 August 1979) Acrylonitrile copolymer fibres, oxidized without tension yield a readily activatable carbon fibre. The rate of adsorbtion by this material is higher than conventional activated carbons.
Improvements in or relating to lightweight aggregates (J.H. Park of South Korea )Br Pat 1 550 003 (8 August 1979) A clay paste containing 10% Portland cement is used to coat expanded polystyrene spheres, which can then be satisfactorily used as a cement aggregate.
