Reason: "The function of the nerve transplant is to a large extent merely mechanical. The graft presents thousands of microscopic channels which will help the down-growth of the neurofibrils...
Butadiene Polymers. The most useful of these units is butadiene, a liquid closely related to butane, hence easily made from natural gas, petroleum refinery vapors or (less easily) from alcohol. Buna, butyl, Ameripol and Perbunan are all based on butadiene...
Some 700 filling stations throughout Germany now supply liquid methane to some 100,000 cars. Because methane is h'gh in antiknock value, special high-compression engines which save 15% in fuel consumption are now available for this fuel. Even diesel engines can be converted to methane, although when this is done they still must be started with regular diesel fuel...
...rapidly and tapped at the same time to make sure that the beads seat themselves evenly; 6) tire and rim are immersed in water for the usual bubble test. Sometimes, in order to seal the smaller cracks, it is necessary to inject a pint to two quarts of liquid cement. Once the tire is made airtight it requires only the usual care...
...Germany's new Heinkel (H-177) is her first four-motored bomber designed as such (the Ju-Sg and Focke-Wulf Kurier were militarized transports). Its most distinctive feature: it has only two propellers, with two liquid-cooled (1,200-h.p.) engines geared to each propeller. The 177 is larger than the Flying Fortress, is almost as fast (about 300 m.p.h.). The Henschel-129, a twin-engined attack plane, is the Germans' answer to the Russian Stormovik. The 129 has a speed of 275 m.p.h., can carry 770 Ib. of bombs, carries a 37-mm. cannon...
