Abstract:
Functionalized solid support material with biomolecule-binding groups and uses thereof, wherein the biomolecule-binding groups include a plurality of aromatic groups, an amine group which bonds to a biomolecule through an aldehyde group, a hydrazine group which bonds to a biomolecule through an aldehyde group, or an alpha,beta-ethylenically or acetylenically unsaturated group with an electron withdrawing group.
Abstract:
Described herein is a method of coagulating a fluoropolymer latex comprising: providing an amorphous fluoropolymer latex; providing unmodified inorganic nanoparticles; contacting the amorphous fluoropolymer latex with a sufficient amount of unmodified inorganic nanoparticles to coagulate the amorphous fluoropolymer.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for evaluating the quality of oils are disclosed. The methods and devices can provide an indication of the oil quality based on the Total Polar Content of the oil. The methods rely on a reusable capacitive sensing element that comprises a fluorinated barrier coating, as disclosed herein.
Abstract:
Provided are compositions comprising a) a fluoroplastic; b) an aromatic material having exactly one hydroxyl group, wherein the aromatic material is free of thiol groups, and wherein the hydroxyl group is bonded to an aromatic carbon; c) a salt former compound capable of forming a salt with the aromatic material; and d) optionally a phase transfer catalyst. Also provided are reaction products of the described compositions, multi-layer articles comprising the compositions and reaction products, and methods for making the compositions, reaction products, and articles.
Abstract:
Protective coatings are formed on a reflective surface of a substrate by depositing an aqueous coating composition including dispersed silica-containing nanoparticles; and removing at least a portion of the aqueous phase. In some embodiments, the aqueous coating composition includes an acid having a pKa of
Abstract:
A coating composition which imparts antifog, antireflective, easy-cleaning, and/or antistatic properties to substrates coated therewith. The coating compositions utilize nanoparticles funtionalized with amine groups and/or protected amine groups, and amine-reactive groups.
Abstract:
Fluorocarbon- and urethane-(meth)acryl-containing additives and hardcoats. The hardcoats are particularly useful as a surface layer on an optical device.
Abstract:
A coating composition which imparts antifog properties to substrates coated therewith. The coating compositions are removable and utilize nanoparticles funtionalized with epoxy groups. The removable coating compositions are particularly useful on personal protection equipment such as face masks, shields, and protective glasses.
Abstract:
The present invention provides immune response modifiers (IRMs) associated with (typically, attached to, and preferably, covalently attached to) macromolecular support materials. The IRM compounds in such IRM-support complexes retain biological activity. Such attachment of an IRM to a macromolecular support material provides for the localized biological activity of the IRM.
