Abstract:
Embodiments of this disclosure pertain to a strengthened glass article including a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface defining a thickness (t) of about less than about 1.1 mm, a compressive stress layer extending from the first surface to a depth of compression (DOC) of about 0.1·t or greater, such that when the glass article fracture, it breaks into a plurality of fragments having an aspect ratio of about 5 or less. In some embodiments, the glass article exhibits an equibiaxial flexural strength of about 20 kgf or greater, after being abraded with 90-grit SiC particles at a pressure of 25 psi for 5 seconds. Devices incorporating the glass articles described herein and methods for making the same are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A coating composition including a reinforcing agent. The coating composition may include one or more radiation-curable monofunctional monomers, one or more radiation-curable multifunctional monomers or oligomers, a photoinitiator, and a reinforcing agent. The monofunctional monomers, multifunctional monomers, and multifunctional oligomers may include acrylate groups. The reinforcing agent may be an acrylic co-polymer that includes two or more repeat units. At least one of the repeat units includes chemical groups that enable self-association of the acrylic co-polymer. Self-association of the acrylic co-polymer may improve the tensile strength of coatings formed from the coating compositions.
Abstract:
An electrowetting optical device is provided. The electrowetting optical device includes a first window, a second window, and a cavity disposed between the first window and the second window. The electrowetting optical device additionally includes a first liquid and a second liquid disposed within the cavity, the first liquid and the second liquid substantially immiscible with each other and having different refractive indices such that an interface between the first liquid and the second liquid defines a variable lens. The electrowetting optical device also includes a common electrode in electrical connection with the first liquid and a driving electrode disposed on a sidewall of the cavity and insulated from the first liquid and the second liquid by an insulating polymer dielectric layer. The insulating polymer dielectric layer may be formed using initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD).
