  • Drugs and Drug Addiction
CONT

Syringe access programs operate with the primary goal of providing injection drug users with new, sterile injection equipment as a means of reducing the spread of blood-borne viruses and other injection-related infections. In addition, there has traditionally been an emphasis placed on simultaneously removing used injection equipment from circulation through a process of exchanging old syringes for new ones.

  • Non-Surgical Treatment
  • Medication
  • Drugs and Drug Addiction
CONT

Substitution therapy seeks to reduce or eliminate opiate use by stabilizing addicts for as long as is necessary to help them avoid previous patterns of drug use and associated harms, including sharing of injection equipment.

CONT

People with significant opiate addiction are unlikely to recover without some form of replacement therapy as part of their treatment. On the other hand, replacement therapy alone is not nearly as effective as combining it with other treatments such as counseling and self-help groups.

PHR

Drug, nicotine replacement therapy.

DEF

Prescription aux toxicomanes de produits de substitution similaires ou identiques à la drogue consommée [dans le but] de permettre à l'utilisateur de se désintoxiquer progressivement ou de limiter les risques associés à la toxicomanie.

CONT

Un exemple de traitement de substitution est la prescription de méthadone aux héroïnomanes.

PHR

Traitement de substitution nicotinique.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Tratamiento sin cirugía

  • Drogas y toxicomanía
CONT

El tratamiento de sustitución a la metadona es un ejemplo de la utilización de unadroga para llegar poco a poco a reducir o parar el consumo de droga: la sustitución de heroína por metadona con carácter médico resultó muy eficaz para ayudar a los consumidores de heroína a suprimir su dependencia, reduciendo al mismo tiempo los daños causados a ellos mismos y a la sociedad. El tratamiento de sustitución implica la prescripción y la administración controlada de sustancias como la metadona y la buprenorfina. Estas sustancias pueden utilizarse para remplazar la heroína porque actúan sobre la necesidad de droga del sistemanervioso, y eliminan la necesidad de opiáceos como la heroína.

CONT

Flushing agents can be aerosols, liquids or dusts. Most are dual use, meaning they can be used to both kill insects, usually by contact, and flush them out of hiding areas. The flusher should be applied, using an injection tip, into cockroach hiding places such as cracks and crevices, table legs, behind cabinets, in drop ceilings and other voids, and inside equipment.

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
  • Industrial Tools and Equipment
  • Machinery
CONT

In a modern injection molding machine, the pellets are conveyed forward within the barrel by a rotating screw, and melt as they go. The molten plastic is deposited at the forward end of the barrel, displacing the screw backward. When enough material has been plasticized, a hydraulic cylinder pushes the screw forward, forcing the molten plastic ahead of it through a nozzle, sprue, runners, and a narrow gate into a water-cooled mold cavity, where the molten plastic solidifies.

CONT

... if the equipment with the malfunction is a plastic injection molding machine, the possible functions might include injection forward, injection return, screw run, back pressure control, clamp close, clamp pressurization, prefill shift, mold protect, and clamp open.

... preplasticizing machine. Of the equipment in use today, 95% is preplasticizing; either with a reciprocating screw or a screw-pot. In a reciprocating screw the melted material is collected in front of the screw, which continues to move backward against a controlled pressure as more material is melted. The area where the melted material is collected corresponds to the pot in a two-stage machine. When the screw is pushed forward by the hydraulic injection cylinder(s), a check valve(nonreturn valve) is closed. At this time the screw and nonreturn valve act like a plunger.

Polyaryl sulfone offers the unique combination of thermoplasticity and retention of structurally useful properties at 500°. This material is supplied in both pellet and powder form. Its thermoplastic nature allows it to be fabricated by injection molding or extrusion techniques on standard commercially available equipment. Polyaryl sulfone consists mainly of phenyl and biphenyl groups linked by thermally stable ether and sulfone groups. It is distinguished from polysulfone polymers by the absence of aliphatic groups, which are liable to oxidative attack. This aromatic structure gives it excellent resistance to oxidative degradation and accounts for its retention of mechanical properties at high temperatures.

CONT

Polyaryl sulfone. A strong, hard, stiff plastic which can be used from -400 to +500°F, this polymer is used mostly in aerospace applications. ... This plastic is often used to upgrade other plastic applications with respect to temperature and to replace metals and ceramics in valve bodies, hydraulic seals, and bearings.

CONT

Poly(aryl sulfone) was introduced in 1983 and is available from Amoco Performance Products under the trade names Radel A-100, A-200, and A-300. It is suitable for high technology applications, including such electrical/electronic parts as printed-circuit boards, snap-fit connectors, and lamp housings.
