    Abstract: Surface structured articles comprising a polymer matrix and a dispersed phase, the article having first and second opposed major surfaces, at least a portion of the first major surface is a microstructured, anisotropic surface comprises features having at least one dimension in a range from 1 micrometer to 500 micrometers, wherein the dispersed phase comprises an antimicrobial material, and wherein at least a portion of the dispersed phase is present on the microstructured, anisotropic surface. Surface structured articles are useful, for example, for marine applications (e.g., surfaces in contact with water (e.g., fresh water, ocean water)) such as boats, ships, piers, oil rigs, decks, and roofing materials.

    Abstract: A flame-retardant flat electrical cable has a magnesium oxide dielectric layer. A plurality of spaced apart substantially parallel electrical conductors generally lie in the same plane and extend along the length of the cable. A dielectric layer is disposed on the top and/or bottom sides of the cable and covers the conductors. The dielectric layer has at least 90% magnesium oxide by weight.

    Abstract: A flame-retardant flat electrical cable has a magnesium oxide dielectric layer. A plurality of spaced apart substantially parallel electrical conductors generally lie in the same plane and extend along the length of the cable. A dielectric layer is disposed on the top and/or bottom sides of the cable and covers the conductors. The dielectric layer comprises at least 90% magnesium oxide by weight. The dielectric layer exhibits good dielectric properties and is flame retardant without the use of halogens.

    Abstract: A method of making a nanostructure and nanostructured articles by depositing a layer to a major surface of a substrate by plasma chemical vapor deposition from a gaseous mixture while substantially simultaneously etching the surface with a reactive species. The method includes providing a substrate; mixing a first gaseous species capable of depositing a layer onto the substrate when formed into a plasma, with a second gaseous species capable of etching the substrate when formed into a plasma, thereby forming a gaseous mixture; forming the gaseous mixture into a plasma; and exposing a surface of the substrate to the plasma, wherein the surface is etched and a layer is deposited on at least a portion of the etched surface substantially simultaneously, thereby forming the nanostructure. The substrate can be a (co)polymeric material, an inorganic material, an alloy, a solid solution, or a combination thereof. The deposited layer can include the reaction product of plasma chemical vapor deposition using a reactant gas comprising a compound selected from the group consisting of organosilicon compounds, metal alkyl compounds, meal isopropoxide compounds, metal acetylacetonate compounds, metal halide compounds, and combinations thereof. Nanostructures of high aspect ratio and optionally with random dimensions in at least one dimension and preferably in three orthogonal dimensions can be prepared.
