摘要： Proteins are applied to a polymeric article by contacting the polymeric article with a protein and exposing the contacted polymeric article to a frequency with a sufficient power dissipation for a sufficient period of time. A frequency range for applying proteins to a polymeric article is between about 5 kHz to about 40 kHz with a minimum power dissipated of about 1 watt. As a result, polymeric articles so treated exhibit improved water wettability, proteins may be applied to the polymeric articles very rapidly and more uniformly than by other methods, and polymeric articles having selected zones of wettability may be produced.

摘要： The present invention relates to improved substrates for use with colorants, and especially with a family of colorants and colorant stabilizers. The colorant stabilizers, according to the present invention, are capable of stabilizing a colorant when it is exposed to electromagnetic radiation. The colorant stabilizers enable the production of an ink set wherein each ink of the ink set, regardless of color, possesses substantially similar light fastness properties. The present invention further relates to improved substrates for use with colorants, and especially with the colorants and colorant stabilizers of the present invention. The improved substrates enable the production of a printed substrate having superior print quality compared to conventional substrates.
