摘要:
A method for preparing a ceramic article comprising compacting a particulate alloy of a primary oxide and a secondary oxide to form a blank, and sintering the blank in contact with substantially pure zirconium oxide. The primary oxide is zirconium oxide and the secondary oxide is selected from the group consisting of MgO, CaO, Y.sub.2 O.sub.3, Sc.sub.2 O.sub.3, rare earth oxides and combinations thereof. Ceramic articles produced have tetragonal phase cores and monoclinic cases.

摘要:
Graphite oxide can be converted to its reduced form (r-GO) using exposing UV radiation having a peak wavelength (λmax) of less than 400 nm while being maintained at a temperature that is greater than room temperature. This conversion method is efficient and can be carried out with various forms of graphite oxide samples, below atmospheric pressure, or in a reducing environment.

An image receiving element has an extruded compliant layer, an extruded image receiving layer, and a topcoat immediately adjacent the extruded image receiving layer. The extruded image receiving layer is non-crosslinked and has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of from about 40° C. to about 80° C. whereas the topcoat is an aqueous-coated layer and has a Tg that is within a range of plus or minus 10° C. of the Tg of the extruded image receiving layer. The dry thickness ratio of the topcoat to the extruded image receiving layer is from 1:2 to 1:20.

An image receiver element includes a water-soluble or water-dispersible polyurethane binder in the image receiving layer. This polyurethane has a Tg of from about 60 to about 80° C., a molecular weight of at least 25,000, and an acid number of from about 16 to about 35 mg KOH/g. Moreover, the polyurethane comprises from about 42 to about 60 weight % of recurring urethane units, from about 8 to about 20 weight % of alkylene glycol recurring units, from about 18 to about 40 weight % of carbonate recurring units having aliphatic side chains, and from about 3 to about 15 weight % of recurring units having a water-soluble or water-dispersible acid group, based on total binder weight.
摘要:
A thermal transfer donor element can be used to provide a clear protective overcoat on a thermal image receiver element from a thermal transferable protective clear film on the donor element. This thermal transferable protective clear film includes a transparent poly(vinyl acetal) binder to which are attached silicone groups to improve scratch resistance of the transferred protective overcoat. Such protective overcoats can also be applied over thermally transferred dye images.
摘要:
A thermal dye image receiver element has, in order, a cellulosic raw base support, an antistatic subbing layer, and a thermal dye receiving layer. The cellulosic raw base support has an internal electrical resistance (WER) that is at least 1 log ohm/square greater than the surface electrical resistance (SER) of the antistatic subbing layer. This arrangement of antistatic properties overcomes a static problem in the thermal dye image receiver elements by properly balancing the conductivity between the two antistatic locations.
