Capsule anchors

Where it is suspected that the concrete contains significant voids, use of expansion, screw and undercut anchors should be avoided. Likewise, capsule anchors, which provide a finite amount of adhesive, may be inappropriate. Where voids are suspected... 

Capsule anchors set rapidly however, attainment of fidl strength is dependent on use of the correct size rotary impact drill and protection of the anchor Irom loading or disturbance during the gel period. Because the quantity of resin provided by the capsule is limited, it is important that the hole diameter and depth be closely controlled. Multiple capsules may be used for larger hole diameters/depths. For these installations, use of an appropriately sized installation tool is critical. 

Other bacterial coats. Archaebacteria not only have unusual plasma membranes that contain phytanyl and diphytanyl groups (Section A,3)608 but also have special surface layers (S-Iayers) that may consist of many copies of a single protein that is anchored in the cell membrane.609 The surface protein of the hypothermic Staphylothermus marius consists of a complex structure formed from a tetramer of 92-kDa rods with an equal number of 85-kDa "arms."610 611 S-layers are often formed not only by archaebacteria but also by eubacteria of several types and with quite varied structures.612 14 While many bacteria carry adhesins on pili, in others these adhesive proteins are also components of surface layers.615 Additional sheaths, capsules, or slime layers, often composed of dextrans (Chapter 4) and other carbohydrates, surround some bacteria. 

Capsule membrane PTC systems are more amenable to a mechanistic analysis than typical triphase systems where the mechanism of interaction between the aqueous and organic phases with the catalytic sites is complex and not understood. A mechanism for capsule membrane PTC involving mass transfer and smface reaction for both PTC and IPTC reactions has been developed by Yadav and Mehta(1993), Yadav and Mistry (1995). A Langmuir-Hinshelwood type model with the anchored quaternary-nucleophile complex as the active site was assumed to govern the overall rate of reaction...

The capsules prepared with EDA, DETA and TETA which were anchored with TBAB as PTC were used to compare the effect of polymer structure on the rate of hydrolysis reaction. The k are 700, 641.2 and 575.7, respectively. This could be attributed to better mobility of anchors in the porous network of EDA membranes.

The inner end of the bolt is anchored with a resin capsule and the bolt shank subsequently tensioned against a bearing plate on the rock surface. A compressive force is thus applied to counteract forces acting to expand the rock mass. The tensioned bolt may be fitted with load indicating devices to enable any... 

On the basis of the supramolecular capsule formed by tetra(carboxyl) and tetra(pyridyl) cavitand pairs stitched together by four hydrogen bonds, Schroeder et al. qnantita-tively evaluated the specific interaction of this snpramolec-ular binding motif (Figure 8). A tetra(carboxyl) cavitand was monofunctionalized with a flexible PEG linker and atfached to the AFM tip. Likewise, a tetra(pyridyl) cavitand was anchored to a gold substrate exploiting gold-snlfur...
