Descriptive marks

Depending on the circumstances, seemingly descriptive marks when taken as a whole might constitute only suggestive terms. A 1968 decision of the Court of Customs and Patent Appeals is illustrative. Sugar and Spice was held registrable for bakery goods. The court stated ...

The acquisition of secondary meaning for a descriptive mark usually requires a calculated effort by the mark s owner to establish a specific relationship or recognition between the... 

Since protein research is now at the apex of the third period of protein description marked by a precise knowledge of space parameters. Part I begins with a presentation of the structural characteristics of folded, globular proteins (Chapter 2). The hierarchy of protein organization as revealed by the different levels of structure is detailed. The most basic features, the structural invariants encountered in globular proteins are presented. The occurrence of a small number of topologies is examined from the double point of view of limitations in folding mechanisms and of protein evolution.

Most reactors have evolved from concentrated efforts focused on one type of reactor. Some processes have emerged from parallel developments using markedly different reactor types. In most cases, the reactor selected for laboratory study has become the reactor type used industrially because further development usually favors extending this technology. Descriptions of some industrially important petrochemical processes and their reactors are available (74—76). Following are illustrative examples of reactor usage, classified according to reactor type. 

Aerosol Dynamics. Inclusion of a description of aerosol dynamics within air quaUty models is of primary importance because of the health effects associated with fine particles in the atmosphere, visibiUty deterioration, and the acid deposition problem. Aerosol dynamics differ markedly from gaseous pollutant dynamics in that particles come in a continuous distribution of sizes and can coagulate, evaporate, grow in size by condensation, be formed by nucleation, or be deposited by sedimentation. Furthermore, the species mass concentration alone does not fliUy characterize the aerosol. The particle size distribution, which changes as a function of time, and size-dependent composition determine the fate of particulate air pollutants and their... 

To receive a filing date, an appHcation made on the basis of intent-to-use must include "a claim of bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce," a description of the goods upon or in connection with which the appHcant has the intention to use the mark and the mode and manner in which it is to be used, and a statement that the appHcant is entitled to use the mark and that, to the best of the appHcant s knowledge, no other person or entity has the right to use the mark or a confusingly similar mark. A drawing of the mark must be submitted with the appHcation. 

These markings provide a general idea of the hazards of a material and the severity of these hazards as they relate to handling, fire protection, exposure, and control. This standard is not applicable to transportation or to use by the general public. It is also not applicable to chronic exposure. For a full description of this standard, refer to NFPA 704. The system identifies the hazards of a material in four principal categories health, flammability, reactivity, and unusual hazards such as reactivity with water. 

In view of Swalin s treatment of diffusion in liquid metals. Are latter seems to be a better description. In binaty mixmres such as NaCl-KCl the equivalent conducAvities are a linear manner, but the KCl-CdCla mixture shows a marked negative departure from linear behaviour, probably because of the formation of the complex ion CdCh. ... 

Complete Section 1.4 only if you are claiming the specific chemical identity of the toxic chemical as a trade secret and have marked the trade secret block in Part I. Section 1.1 on page 1 of Form R. Enter a generic chemical name that is descriptive of the chemical stmcture. You must limit the generic name to seventy characters (e.g., numbers, letters, spaces, punctuation) or less. Do not enter mixture names in Section 1.4 see Section 2 below. 

The term stainless steel is not, of course, a strictly accurate description, but the difference in behaviour between chromium-bearing steels and carbon steels in many environments is so marked as to justify the adoption of the name. 

The use of general descriptive names, trade names, trademarks, etc. in this publication, even if the former are not especially identified, is not to be taken as a sign that such names, as understood by the Trade Marks and Merchandise Marks Act, may acccording-ly be used freely by anyone. 

As might be expected, improved spectrographie equipment is leading to an extension of x-ray emission as a technique for analysis, and this extension in turn points up opportunities for further improvement. One result is that we find ourselves in a period marked by rapidly changing equipment that soon becomes obsolescent. Description of all the equipment currently available is therefore futile. We shall accordingly restrict ourselves (with one exception see Section 9.9) to a representative list of products manufactured in the United States.
