摘要:
A device and clinical techniques that can help healthcare workers locate and image the general outlines of blood vessels that are located either under or near to tissue or skin surfaces are described. The device involves a substrate formed from a self-cooling polymeric matrix that incorporates at least a thermo-chromic colorant, and can provide a means to distinguish between different temperature regions when applied to a heat-emitting object or body. The device can be used in certain therapeutic or healthcare-related applications.
摘要:
A wearable article made from a nonwoven fabric that includes a plurality of coated fibers. The coated fibers have an exterior surface and a coating composition on at least a portion of the exterior surface. The coating composition includes an aminofunctionalized silane and a dialdehyde, where the weight percent of the dialdehyde in the coating composition is greater than the weight percent of the silane in the coating composition. The wearable article can be a wrap, brace, support, compression hosiery, bandage or compress. When worn, the wearable article is initially flexible but becomes rigid and stiff when the coated fibers experience a sudden force or impact. The wearable article does not include a fluid.
摘要:
Disclosed is a thermoplastic composition suitable for forming sheet materials with improved tensile properties. The thermoplastic composition includes from about 1 to about 98 weight percent of a fiber-forming or film-forming polymer, from about 1 to about 98 weight percent of a low melt flow rate polymer having a melt flow rate less than 20 grams per 10 minutes, and from about 0.1 to about 10 weight percent of nanoparticles. The nanoparticles may be cylindrical nanoparticles having an average aspect ratio greater than about 1 and less than about 500.
摘要:
The invention provides a breath testing device which includes a visual indicating agent which changes color in the presence of an odor associated with bad breath, such as sulfur and ammonia odors. An example of the visual indicating agent is 4,4′-bis(dimethylamino)-benzhydrol (Michler's hydrol or BDMB) and related dyes having a similar chemical structure. The indicating agent is applied to a substrate which is then inserted into a tube or straw, or which covers one end of a straw. When a user with bad breath blows into the tube or straw, the indicating agent will change color. The breath testing devices provide a quick and affordable means for a user to test their breath, and they may be packaged in discreet, pocket-sized dispensers which can be carried in a pocket or purse.
摘要:
A process for treating a textile web includes applying a first treatment agent to the web. The web is moved in an open configuration over a contact surface of an ultrasonic vibration system. The ultrasonic vibration system is operated to impart ultrasonic energy to the textile web to facilitate the distribution of the first treatment agent through a first extent of the thickness of the textile web. A second treatment agent is applied to the web. The web is moved in an open configuration thereof over a contact surface of an ultrasonic vibration system. The ultrasonic vibration system is operated to impart ultrasonic energy to the textile web to facilitate the distribution of the second treatment agent through a second extent of the thickness of the web. The second extent is different than the first extent.
摘要:
A thermoplastic polymeric composition having a xanthene or xanthenes-based compound as a plasticizer, a method to modify the thermoplastic polymeric materials to increase their relative plasticity while maintaining good strength or “toughness” characteristics, and various articles of manufacture that can be made using the polymer composition are described.
摘要:
Anti-viral tissues are provided with a pH indicator which can communicate to a tissue user by means of visual indicia, via color changes, that the tissue has active ingredients. Furthermore, the pH indicators can be used to illustrate neutralization of the pH of infected nasal discharge, which has a higher pH than healthy nasal discharge, giving the user a reason to believe that the product is working to deactivate virus.
摘要:
An odor control layer for personal care products includes a first portion with a formulation of activated carbon and a second portion with a formulation of nanoparticle silver. The layer can be placed in a personal care product including diapers, training pants, absorbent underpants, adult incontinence products, or feminine hygiene products. The personal care product can include a liquid-permeable bodyside liner, a liquid-impermeable outer cover affixed to the bodyside liner, and an absorbent core disposed between the bodyside liner and the outer cover.
