A series of mixtures of N-butyl cyanoacrylate and 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate monomers having specific and differing concentrations of free radical inhibitor/antioxidant stabilizers for each mixture of the two monomers. This results in cyanoacrylate compositions that can withstand radiation such as E-beam and gamma radiation at any desired level and not be adversely affected.

An apparatus, method, and system of popping popcorn. In one aspect of the invention, an apparatus comprises a popcorn popper, a popped popcorn hopper and a dispensing mechanism in communication with the hopper. By actuation, the dispensing mechanism dispenses one or more servings from the hopper. In another aspect of the invention, the apparatus further comprises a dosing mechanism to provide sequential doses of unpopped corn to the popper to make a plurality of batches of popped popcorn. In another aspect of the invention, a sensor sensing when popped popcorn in the hopper exceeds a pre-determined level or amount and instigates a signal to actuate the dosing mechanism to fill the hopper. In a system according to the invention, a self-contained cabinet includes the popper, hopper, dispensing mechanism and dosing mechanism, as well as a control circuit and actuators to operate the dosing mechanism and dispensing mechanisms. A method according to the invention comprises sensing amount of popped corn in the hopper, if determined needed, adding a single dose of unpopped corn to a popper and filling the hopper, and rechecking amount of popped corn in the hopper periodically.

A cleaning brush that is uniquely configured for removing lint, dust and other debris from an arcuate duct, such as an exhaust duct of a clothes dryer. The brush generally includes a body having an elongate arcuate shape, with a radius of curvature that is preferably greater than the length of the body. The body is formed of a flexible material so as to permit the brush to flex in the direction of the radius of curvature, which enables the brush to adapt to variations in the arcuate shapes of ducts. The brush is also provided with bristles that substantially cover one end of the body. The bristles include shorter, tightly-wound inner bristles and longer bristles that surround the inner bristles. As such, the brush is characterized by features that uniquely enable the brush to effectively remove lint and dust from along the entire length of a duct, yet enable the brush to flex sufficiently to accommodate variations in the arcuate shapes of ducts.
