The particulate synthetic amorphous silica is attached to the surface of the particulate polytetrafluoroethylene.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing a double-sided film containing the step of 5 forming a film in the interface between air and the mixture of a polymer comprising amine group (—NH) and a compound containing phenol or catechol by exposing the mixture on the air. Particularly, the double-sided film of the present invention is a separation membrane 10 that can separate the interface of liquid phase and gas phase and at the same time can be used as a biomaterial such as a haemostatic and also an waterproof agent. When the film is prepared in a moderate condition by using an enzyme, the film can include proteins and 15 cells, resulting in the multi-functional versatility film that can be useful as a biocatalyst. The versatility film of the present invention, thus, is not expensive and the production method thereof is simple and eco-friendly.

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to dispensers, dispenser components and related methods for reducing or preventing sticking, drying, buildup, clogging, and/or misdirection of carbomer gel based products such as hand sanitizers by incorporating one or more salts, such as sodium chloride, as an additive to the polymer used to make certain pump and nozzle components of dispensers in such a way as to allow the salt crystals to access the polymer surface. The polymer/salt mixture is then formed into the desired dispenser component part by any conventional means, including without limitation, injection molding, compression molding, transfer molding, liquid injection molding, over molding, insert molding and/or blow molding.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments provide intermediate transfer members that can be used in electrostatographic devices and methods for using them in forming an image. The disclosed intermediate transfer members can include a plurality of nanotubes with high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, and/or low humidity sensitivity. The hydrophobicity of the nanotubes can be controlled by covalently grafting hydrophobic components onto one or more nanotubes; surface treating one or more nanotubes; and encapsulating one or more nanotubes with hydrophobic components. In an exemplary embodiment, the nanotubes can be dispersed in polymer matrices and/or formed on the surface of polymer matrices of the intermediate transfer members. The intermediate transfer members can take various forms of belts, sheets, webs, films, rolls, tubes or any shape that can provide a smooth surface and rotatable function.
Abstract:
The invention is based on the recognition that known antimicrobial compounds, such as nisin or other lantibiotics, can be made to form a long lasting antimicrobial surface coating by linking the peptide with a block polymer, such as PLURONIC® F108 or an end group activated polymer (EGAP) in a manner to form a flexible tether and/or entrap the peptide. The entrapped peptide provides antimicrobial action by early release from entrapment while the tethered peptide provides longer lasting antimicrobial protection. Antimicrobial gels and foams may be prepared using the antimicrobial peptide containing block copolymers.
