Various embodiments of the teachings herein include an apparatus for voltage equalization in square-wave voltages of electric motors. The apparatus may include: a terminal board circuit wherein phases U, V, and W each comprises input and output cabled conductors summing to at least 6 cables; and a bridge between two of the at least six cables connecting two or more of the at least 6 cable inputs and outputs. The bridge is partially conductive such that its electrical resistance markedly reduces above a threshold value. The partial conductivity results from filler particles in an embedding matrix determining a reduction of the resistance in the bridge above the threshold value.

The present invention is a composition comprising an aqueous dispersion of metal oxide pigment particles coated with an organosilane polymer comprising structural units of an alkyltrihydroxysilane or a salt thereof, a dialkyldihydroxysilane or a salt thereof, and an ancillary alkylsilane triol. The composition of the present invention provides hydrophobicity to pigment particles, thereby imparting water resistance, and allows for high loadings of pigment in water without increased viscosity. The dispersion is further useful for providing stain and corrosion resistance in coatings arising from paints.

A composition comprising nanocellulose is disclosed, wherein the nanocellulose contains very low or essentially no sulfur content. The nanocellulose may be in the form of cellulose nanocrystals, cellulose nanofibrils, or both. The nanocellulose is characterized by a crystallinity of at least 80%, an onset of thermal decomposition of 300° F. or higher, and a low light transmittance over the range 400-700 nm. Other variations provide a composition comprising lignin-coated hydrophobic nanocellulose, wherein the nanocellulose contains very low or essentially no sulfur content. Some variations provide a composition comprising nanocellulose, wherein the nanocellulose contains about 0.1 wt % equivalent sulfur content, or less, as SO.sub.4 groups chemically or physically bound to the nanocellulose.
