A single dose dispensing package (100) having a backing (102) for maintaining the package in a substantially flat orientation is disclosed. A score (106) through the backing allows the package to open upon flexure. At least one additional score on the opposite side provides at least one metered opening in the package. Absorbent material (112) placed over the score, and adhered to the dispensing package only in the area of the score, provides controlled dispensing and application of the contents using essentially an entire surface of the absorbent material as an applicator.
摘要:
Described herein, in a preferred embodiment, is a leonardite-based polyurethane resin binder that may be used, among other applications, as a binder in combination with foundry aggregate, e.g., sand, for molding or casting metal parts. The binders described herein comprise a humic substance, preferably leonardite, first mixed with a foundry aggregate and then the humic-aggregate mixture is combined with a polymerizable polyol, an isocyanate, and a polymerization catalyst to make a polyurethane resin binder in situ in a foundry aggregate, such as sand. The lignite is added as a solid to the foundry aggregate, and improves the binder performance of the lignite-containing part of the binder components.
摘要:
Reactive gabion cage or grid structures, and their methods of manufacture, for controlling contaminants in soil, sediment or water that allow the passage of essentially non-contaminated water therethrough. The articles and methods described herein utilize gabions cages or grids, which are box shaped cages or grids (see Fig. 2 ) made of either steel wire mesh or plastic. In one embodiment, reactive geotextile mats are disposed on a top major surface of a gabion cage or grid. In other embodiments, the cages or grids surround a geocomposite containing reactive material. The gabion cage or grid structures can be constructed in-situ (at the site of deployment) or remotely (on land or barge) and set in place. They are typically placed side-by-side and, in a preferred embodiment, are configured to cover a target sediment area, underwater. The gabion cages or grids may be filled with clean sediment, silt, sand and/or concrete block or rock to hold the reactive geocomposite in place and for armoring.

The use of a sulfur-impregnated organoclay provides a mercury or arsenic removal media having increased reactivity, stability, and mercury removal ability. The Hg/As removal media described herein is prepared by impregnating an organophilic clay with elemental (free state) sulfur. Alternatively, the clay can be made organophilic by onium ion reaction prior to or simultaneously with impregnating the organoclay with sulfur.
摘要:
A tri-block copolymer is disclosed for use as an impact modifier in polyamide compounds also containing a compatibilizer, preferably also having reinforcing organoclay exfoliated and dispersed therein. The tri-block copolymer comprises an aromatic monomer, an olefin monomer, and a alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer.
摘要:
An improved cosmetic and dermatological composition and a method for treating hyperpigmented skin is disclosed. The composition demonstrates an ability to lighten mammalian skin color and is nonirritating. The composition contains (a) a retinoid loaded onto polymeric microparticles and (b) a second skin lightening agent, like kojic acid or a derivative thereof, such as kojic dipalmitate.
摘要:
Layered phyllosilicates are useful for adsorbing and/or binding to cholesterol and, thereby, reducing blood cholesterol in a patient. Accordingly, provided herein is a method of reducing hypercholesteremia in a mammal comprising administering to said mammal a protonated and at least partially exfoliated layered phyllosilicate material alone and in combination with other cholesterol-reducing agents in an amount effective to reduce hypercholesteremia in said mammal.
摘要:
nuc-PP nanocomposite is made from the mixing of nuc-PP with olefin elastomer and organoclay, and optionally, a dispersion agent. Unexpectedly, processing properties such as higher melt flow, and performance properties such as higher toughness and higher stiffness, are obtained when compared with commercially available PP nanocomposite.
摘要:
It has been found that phosphorous-containing and oxyanion compounds can be removed efficiently and economically by adsorption with cation-exchanged aluminosilicates that are ion-exchanged in a concentrated aluminosilicate composition containing the aluminosilicate, the exchange cations, and only about 15% to about 50% by weight water, based on the total weight of the aluminosilicate and water. Further, the ion-exchange process described herein has been found to be effective, in addition to those complexing or ion- exchange elements described in the Douglas '383 patent, when complexed or ion-exchanged with one or more elements of Group VIII (Fe, Co, Mi, Ru, Rh, Pd, Re, Os, Ir), Group IB (Cn, Ag, Au), and Group IEB (Zn, Cl, Hg).
