The basic raw materials for OPP films are four different polypropylene-rich resins : homopolymer, copolymer, terpolymer, and modified resins.... When a film is biaxially oriented, it is mechanically stretched in directions which are at right angles to each other.

Linear proton accelerators. The design principle applied in linear accelerators for protons was originated by Luis Alvarez at Berkeley in 1946. It is based on the formation of standing electromagnetic waves in a long cylindrical metal tank, or cavity, as it is sometimes called. In the design that has been adopted, the electric field is parallel to the axis of the tank. Most of these accelerators operate at frequencies of about 200 MHz. During the time required for a proton to traverse one of these tanks, the accelerating electric fields undergo many reversal of direction. In Alvarez’ design, the decelerating effect of the field during the intervals when it opposes the motion of the particles is prevented by installing on the axis of the tank a number of "drift tubes".... The electric field is zero inside the drift tubes, and if their lengths are properly chosen, the protons cross the gap between adjacent drift tubes when the direction of the field produces acceleration and are shielded by the drift tubes when the field in the tank would decelerate them. The length of the drift tubes are proportional to the speeds of the particles that pass through them. 1, record 37, English, - linear%20proton%20accelerator

Il s'agit d'une onde électromagnétique caractérisée par un champ magnétique perpendiculaire à la direction de propagation et un champ électrique possédant une composition parallèle à la direction de propagation. Pour que les protons ne soient soumis au champ électrique que pendant une phase accélératrice, des tubes de glissement, formant cage de Faraday pour les particules les traversant, sont disposés suivant l'axe de la cavité.
