Abstract:
A method includes coating a substrate to provide a flame resistant substrate. In an embodiment, the method includes exposing the substrate to a cationic solution to produce a cationic layer deposited on the substrate. The cationic solution comprises cationic materials. The cationic materials comprise a polymer, a colloidal particle, a nanoparticle, a nitrogen-rich molecule, a geopolymer, a carbon-based filler, or any combinations thereof. The method also includes agitating the substrate. The method further includes exposing the cationic layer to an anionic solution to produce an anionic layer deposited on the cationic layer to produce a layer comprising the anionic layer and the cationic layer. The anionic solution comprises a layerable material.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the development of electrostatic dissipative (ESD) electronic packaging materials based on the electrically conducting nanofiller decorated polyurethane foams and also describes a process for the preparation of the same. More specifically it relates to the development of electrically conducting foams by providing a coating of 0.003 to 2.97 vol % loading of electrically conducting materials (like conducting polymers, functionalized carbon nanotubes, graphene analogues etc) over/onto otherwise electrically insulating surface of foams. The combination of low density, mechanical flexibility, resilience and surface conductivity collectively contribute towards their excellent shock absorption and static charge dissipation capabilities. In particular, these foams display surface resistivity value
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a foam polystyrene-based bead. The foam polystyrene-based bead includes: a core containing a styrene-based resin, a char-generating thermoplastic resin, and an expanded inorganic material; and a skin disposed on the surface of the core, wherein the skin contains a resin of which the glass transition temperature is below around 120° C. The foam is contained in the core or skin. The core may further include a carbon filler. Foam produced from the expandable polystyrene beads is not an inherently self-extinguishing flame retardant material yet can have good non-flammability comparable to or better than that of inherently flame retardant materials (Non flammability level 3) as measured in accordance with KS F ISO 5660-1, heat insulation properties, and mechanical properties.
