Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for coating a material surface, comprising the steps of: (a) covalently binding a compound comprising an ethylenically unsaturated double bond to the material surface; (b) polymerizing a monomer comprising a reactive or crosslinkable group on the surface and thereby providing a primary polymer coating comprising reactive or crosslinkable groups, (c) in case of a monomer comprising a reactive group in step (b) reacting the reactive groups of the primary coating with a further compound comprising an ethylenically unsaturated double bond and graft-polymerizing a hydrophilic monomer and optionally a co-monomer having a crosslinkable group onto the primary coating obtained according to step (b) and (d) in case of crosslinkable groups being present in step (b) or (c) initiating crosslinking of said groups. The coated articles that are obtainable by the process of the invention have desirable characteristics regarding adherence to the substrate, durability, hydrophilicity, wettability, biocompatibility and permeability and are thus useful for the manufacture of biomedical articles such as ophthalmic devices.
Abstract:
A process for manufacturing a prepreg exhibiting excellent formability and producing laminated boards and multiple layer circuit boards exhibiting high thickness precision is disclosed. The process of manufacturing the prepreg comprises (a) a step of impregnating a glass fiber substrate with a solvent, (b) a step of impregnating the solvent-impregnated glass fiber substrate with epoxy resin, (c) a step of heating the epoxy resin-impregnated glass fiber substrate, (d) a step of further impregnating the epoxy resin-impregnated glass fiber substrate, in which the epoxy resin has been cured, with the epoxy resin, and (e) a step of heating the lastly obtained epoxy resin-impregnated glass fiber substrate, wherein the epoxy resin reaction rate in the inner layer is 85% or more and the epoxy resin reaction rate in the outer layer is 60% or less.
Abstract:
The article in accordance with the invention is a corrosion and erosion resistant article having good release characteristics which includes a metal body having a first surface thereon and a base coat adhering to the first surface. The base coat comprises at least one layer of inorganic particulate material bonded to the first surface. A second coat adheres to the base coat. The second coat comprising a cured coating of solid particulate lubricant in a phosphate/chromate metal ion solution. The invention also includes a corrosion and erosion resistant coating having good release characteristics which includes a base coat, the base coat comprising at least one layer of inorganic particulate material bonded to the first surface; and a second coat adhering to the base coat. The second coat comprises a cured coating of solid particulate lubricant in a phosphate/chromate metal ion solution. The invention also include the method of applying a corrosion and erosion resistant coating having good release characteristics which indicate providing a metal body having a first surface thereon and applying a base coat to the first surface where the base coat comprises at least one layer of inorganic particulate material bonded to the first surface. The next step comprises partially curing the base coat, and applying a second coat that adheres to the base coat, the second coat comprises a cured coating of solid particulate lubricant in a phosphate/chromate metal ion solution. In some cases a third coat is applied.
Abstract:
The present invention is a process for pressure treating wood and includes wood which has been pressure treated by the process. The process comprises infusion into the wood of a solution in water of an anhydride or the analogous acid of an anhydride, followed by removal of moisture from the wood and the infusion of the wood with a molten waxy solid comprising hydrocarbon paraffins or saturated fatty acids. The molten waxy solid then solidifies, filling all voids in the wood.
Abstract:
Dyed polyester fabrics may be printed with a plastisol printing composition substantially without dissolving the dye in the polyester fabric by initially applying a blocking composition to the fabric to form a printing receptor barrier, after curing of the blocking composition, imprinting the plastisol in a desired image or pattern onto the barrier and finally curing the print. The barrier substantially separates the fabric and the plastisol from one another to prevent chemical interaction between the printing composition and the dye in the polyester fabric, thereby to prevent undesired discoloration of the printing composition.
