Abstract:
A balloon coating method is disclosed, which includes an application step in which, where a flexible dispensing tube for supplying a coating solution containing the water-insoluble drug and a solvent is formed at its end portion with an opening portion for discharging the coating solution therethrough and when the opening portion-formed end portion side of the dispensing tube is kept in contact with the outer surface of the balloon in such a manner as to be oriented in a direction opposite to a rotating direction of the balloon while the balloon is rotated about an axis of the balloon, the coating solution is discharged through the opening portion and applied to the outer surface of the balloon while the dispensing tube is moved relative to the balloon in an axial direction X of the balloon.
Abstract:
The invention provides a gas barrier film with low deterioration in the gas barrier property before and after high-temperature hot water treatment. The gas barrier film has a gas barrier coating film, formed as a composite film comprising a network structure having a mesh structure with Si—O—Si bonds as the basic lattice and a water-soluble polymer crystallized as microcrystals, incorporated into the mesh of the network structure, wherein a barrier coating agent, obtained by mixing a condensate solution of an alkoxysilane hydrolysate prepared as a mixed solution in which the proportion of bonded states of the silicon atoms of the condensate with Q1 and Q2 structures is at least 60% of the total silicon atoms, with a crystalline water-soluble polymer, is coated on a base material film, either after forming or without forming an aluminum oxide vapor deposition film, to form a coating layer.
Abstract:
Silver-containing compositions contain a water-soluble complex of a reactive polymer with either reducible silver ions or silver nanoparticles, the reactive polymer comprising: (a) greater than 1 mol % of recurring units comprising sulfonic acid or sulfonate groups, (b) at least 5 mol % of recurring units comprising a pendant group capable of crosslinking via [2+2] photocycloaddition, and optionally (c) at least 1 mol % of recurring units comprising a pendant amide, hydroxyl, lactam, phosphonic acid, or carboxylic acid group, all amounts based on the total recurring units in the reactive polymer. Other silver-containing compositions contain a water-insoluble complex of a reacted polymer with either reducible silver ions or silver nanoparticles. The reacted polymers are derived from the reactive polymers.
Abstract:
Provided are a multilayered-coating system and a method of manufacturing the same. The multi-layered coating system includes: a layer 1 including a plurality of spherical voids with a radius a1 that are randomly distributed and separated from one another and a filler material with a refractive index n1 that is disposed in a space between the spherical voids; and subsequent layers expressed as the following word-equation, “a layer i located above a layer i−1 and including a plurality of spherical voids with a radius ai that are randomly distributed and separated from one another, and a filler material with a refractive index ni, the filler material disposed in a space between the spherical voids where i is an integer greater than 1”.
Abstract:
A method can be used to provide electrically-conductive articles with electrolessly plated metal, or articles having antimicrobial properties for marine environments. The method includes disposing a silver-containing composition onto one or more supporting sides of a substrate such as continuous polymeric web. The silver-containing composition comprises a water-soluble complex of a reactive polymer with reducible silver ions, the reactive polymer comprising: (a) greater than 1 mol % of recurring units comprising sulfonic acid or sulfonate groups, (b) at least 5 mol % of recurring units comprising a pendant group capable of crosslinking via [2+2] photocycloaddition, and optionally (c) at least 1 mol % of recurring units comprising a pendant amide, hydroxyl, lactam, phosphonic acid, or carboxylic acid group. The reducible silver ions can be suitably reduced and the reactive polymer can be photoexposed to provide crosslinking in patternwise or uniform fashion.
