Method and system for providing an audible warning of approach of a moving vehicle that is undergoing hard braking. When hard braking is being applied and the initial vehicle velocity (just before hard braking is first applied) is at least equal to a selected threshold velocity, an artificially produced warning sound, resembling the screech or howl of one or more tires in a panic stop, is transmitted, in one or more selected angular sectors. If the initial vehicle velocity is less than the threshold velocity, the warning sound is witheld. The threshold velocity may depend upon one or more of initial velocity, initial deceleration, local road surface conditions and local weather conditions.

Vehicle braking system safety enhancements

The present invention provides: A core-shell insert latex composition comprising latex particles, each latex particle comprising:

Waterborne core-shell latex polymers

Organic esters of chlorine-containing or bromine-containing phosphorus acids and BIS-GMA, and organic esters of phosphorus acids having chlorine or bromine bonded directly to phosphorus (are described), the organic radical of said esters containing at least one polymerizable functional group. Also described are dental line, restorative, composite, and adhesive compositions containing such organic esters, as well as methods for using such compositions to repair or veneer dental tissue.

Dentin and enamel adhesive

Organic esters of chlorine-containing of bromine-containing phosphorus acids and BIS-GMA, and organic esters of phosphorus acids having chlorine or bromine bonded directly to phosphorus, the organic radical of said esters containing at least one polymerizable functional group. Also described are dental liner, restorative, composite, and adhesive compositions containing such organic esters, as well as methods for using such compositions to repair or veneer dental tissue.
