Abstract:
The invention concerns the field of galvanic depositions and relates to a method of galvanoplastic deposition of a gold alloy on an electrode dipped into a bath including metal gold in alkaline aurocyanide form, organometallic compounds, a wetting agent, a sequestering agent and free cyanide. According to the invention, the alloy metals are copper, in double copper and potassium cyanide form, and silver in cyanide form, allowing a mirror bright yellow gold alloy to be deposited on the electrode.
Abstract:
The present invention regards nano surfaces and particularly a gradient based nano surface. According to embodiments of the invention a surface bound gradient is created by distributed nanoparticles along a plane surface. This procedure greatly reduces the number of prepared surfaces needed, as well as the methodological error of analysis of adsorption and adhesion phenomena.
Abstract:
An organic device, including semiconducting polymers processed from a solution cast on one or more dielectric layers on a substrate; and electrical contacts to the semiconducting polymers, wherein the substrate and the one or more dielectric layers are flexible and the semiconducting polymers are aligned. The one or more dielectric layers can increase mobility of the semiconducting polymers and/or alignment of the semiconducting polymers with one or more of the nanogrooves in the dielectric layers.
Abstract:
Provided is an active energy ray-curable resin composition with which it is possible to form a cured film, having outstanding scratch resistance, hardness, and weather resistance, on the surface of a molded resin article for an automobile headlamp lens. The active energy ray-curable resin composition is used to form a cured film on the surface of a molded resin article for an automobile headlamp lens and comprises (A) 10-70% by mass of a mono- or poly-pentaerythritol poly(meth)acrylate compound having a specific structure, (B) 10-50% by mass of a urethane(meth)acrylate compound having at least two (meth)acryloyloxy groups, at least one amido group, and at least two urethane bonds, and (C) 20-80% by mass of a poly[(meth)acryloyloxyalkyl]isocyanurate compound having a specific structure.
Abstract:
Coating methods and related devices are provided. Such devices can include stents. For example, the device can comprise a sidewall and a plurality of pores in the sidewall that are sized to inhibit flow of blood through the sidewall into an aneurysm to a degree sufficient to lead to thrombosis and healing of the aneurysm when the tubular member is positioned in a blood vessel and adjacent to the aneurysm. The device can also comprise an anti-thrombogenic coating distributed over at least a portion of the device such that the pores are substantially free of webs formed by the coating.
Abstract:
Polarizing beam splitter is disclosed. The polarizing beam splitter includes a first polymeric prism, a second polymeric prism, a reflective polarizer that is disposed between and adhered to a hypotenuse of each of the first and second polymeric prisms, and a hardcoat that is disposed on each of the first and second polymeric prisms. The polarizing beam splitter includes an input major surface and an output major surface. At least one of the input and output major surfaces has a pencil hardness of at least 3 H. The polarizing beam splitter has a low birefringence such that when polarized light having a first polarization state enters the optical element from the input major surface and travels through at least 2 mm of the polarizing beam splitter and exits the polarizing beam splitter from the output major surface, at least 95% of light exiting the polarizing beam splitter is polarized has the first polarization state.
