Abstract:
Semi-permeable particle can be used to facilitate chemical reactions such as catalytic reactions. The semi-permeable particles are permeable to molecules having a molar mass of 1000 Daltons or less and have a mode particle size of at least 1 μm. The semi-permeable particles have multiple discrete cavities containing an aqueous solution or suspension of an organic catalytic material. The semi-permeable particles are also impermeable to the organic catalytic materials so they are retained within the multiple discrete cavities, and the semi-permeable particles can be reused multiple times for the same or different chemical reaction.
Abstract:
Aqueous ink jet ink compositions are used for ink jet printing colorless, colored or invisible images on receiver elements. These compositions contain a dispersion of an unsaturated natural oil and a water compatible polyurethane. The unsaturated oil dispersion is prepared from conventional surfactants or a polyurethane dispersing agent. The polyurethane is prepared from unsaturated polyol segments prepared from the unsaturated natural oils. The ink preparations are printed on media treated with agents such as metal ions known to catalyze crosslinking reactions in unsaturated oils. Such compositions are useful in various ink jet printing systems including drop on demand and continuous ink jet printing systems.

Abstract:
A process is disclosed of conducting in a single reaction vessel selective site high chloride epitaxy deposition as a continuation of host high bromide {1111} tabular grain emulsion precipitation. A host tabular grain emulsion is precipitated accounting for 0.05 to 1.5 moles of silver per liter of dispersing medium. Any iodide at the major faces of the tabular grains is uniformly distributed and any iodide in a surface region of the grains amounts to less than 7 mole, based on silver in the surface region. Until epitaxy is formed, pH is held in the range of 3 to 8. Gelatino-peptizer in an amount of 1 to 40 grams per Ag mole is added to the emulsion. Chloride ion in a range of from 0.03 to 0.15 mole per liter is dispersed in the emulsion. pBr is held in the range of from 3.0 to 3.8 until epitaxy is formed. Iodide ion in a concentration of from 5.times.10.sup.-6 to 1.times.10.sup.-4 mole per square meter of grain surface area is uniformly adsorbed to the major surfaces of the tabular grains.
Abstract:
A process of preparing a radiation-sensitive silver halide emulsion is disclosed in which the silver halide grains form dispersed clumps. A population of fine silver halide grains is precipitated at higher concentrations than previously taught for preparing this type of an emulsion by employing a peptizer limited in amount, limited in methionine content, or both. Following formation of the grains, they are aggregated into clumps by the addition of a surfactant, optionally assisted by the adding iodide, increasing pH or both. The grain clumps are stabilized against further aggregation by adding a high methionine peptizer and optionally assisted by the precipitation of additional silver halide.

A precursor dielectric composition comprises: (1) a photocurable or thermally curable thiosulfate-containing polymer that has a Tg of at least 50° C. and comprises: an organic polymer backbone comprising (a) recurring units comprising pendant thiosulfate groups; and organic charge balancing cations, (2) optionally, an electron-accepting photosensitizer component, and (3) one or more organic solvents in which the photocurable or thermally curable thiosulfate-containing polymer is dissolved or dispersed. These precursor dielectric compositions can be applied to various substrates and eventually cured to form dielectric compositions or layers for various types of electronic devices.
