A multilayered polymeric structure having at least two polymeric layers is provided, each layer being a mixture of a polymeric composition with carbon fibrils. The multilayer polymeric structure may include an electrically conductive material between the first and second polymeric layers. A process for making a multilayered polymeric structure for packaging electronic components is also provided. The multilayered polymeric material is used to form trays and packages for containing electrical components.

Multilayered polymeric structure

A bottle retainer includes a base having an affixing portion and a retaining portion. The affixing portion is adapted to mount the bottle retainer to a surface and the retaining portion is adapted to slidably receive at least one bottle. The retaining portion may further include obstructions for engaging the bottle, whereby accidental disengagement is prevented. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Bottle retainer

A composite that includes a reaction injection molded matrix into which carbon fibrils have been incorporated, and a molding composition suitable for preparing such a composite. The invention also features a composite that includes a premix in which carbon fibrils have been incorporated into a resin matrix, and the molded product of the premix.

Method of molding composites containing carbon fibrils

An improved battery having an anode, a cathode that includes a chemically reducible material into which is incorporated an amount of electrically conductive carbon microfibers sufficient to enhance the electrical conductivity of said chemically reducible material, and an electrolyte.

Battery

A polymeric composition having improved toughness and conductivity comprising carbon fibrils, at least a portion of which are in the form of aggregates, wherein, as measured on an area basis, substantially all of the aggregates are less than about 35 .mu.m in diameter. A polymeric composition having improved toughness and conductivity is prepared by combining carbon fibrils, at least a portion of which are in the form of aggregates, with a polymeric material, mixing the combination to distribute the fibrils in the polymeric material and applying shear to the combination to break down the aggregates until substantially all of the aggregates are less than about 35 .mu.m in diameter.
