摘要:
A mass produced absorbent article having an image of a quality that is commercially acceptable. The image is produced by ink jet printheads applying ink to a web moving at high speed under the jets in the course of manufacturing the article. The image is printed at low resolution but is characterized in part by a higher coverage area ratio and brightness.
摘要:
A system is provided that gathers information from a user regarding a desired educational institution and sources for financing an education at the educational institution. The system further estimates a future income and compares the income with the obligations that arise from financing the education. This comparison is subsequently classified according to risk profile.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a fastening system that includes an auto-adhesive layer and a cover layer. The cover layer engages the auto-adhesive layer such that the auto-adhesive layer is exposed as the cover layer is stretched. In some embodiments, stretching the cover layer causes the cover layer to rupture (i.e., tear) so that the auto-adhesive layer may be exposed for subsequent bonding. The term “auto-adhesive” refers to self-adhesive properties of a polymeric material where an auto-adhesive is substantially non-adhesive with respect to many other materials. The present invention also relates to a method of joining a fastening system to an item. The method includes positioning the fastening system near the item. The method further includes exposing an auto-adhesive layer by stretching a cover layer that is engaged with the auto-adhesive layer and then engaging the auto-adhesive layer on the fastening system with an auto-adhesive layer on the item.

A disposable garment having a liquid permeable liner, a liquid impermeable/vapor permeable outer cover in opposed relationship with the liner and an absorbent body disposed between the liner and the outer cover. The outer cover has a water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) as determined by a Water Vapor Transmission Rate Test of at least about 6,000 g/m2/24 hours. The disposable garment has an evaporation rate as determined by an Evaporation Rate Test of at least 0.15 g/hr/in2. A disposable garment is also disclosed having an absorbent body with an evaporation rate as determined by the Evaporation Rate Test of at least 0.30 g/hr/in2, a saturation capacity ratio as determined by a Saturation Capacity Test of at least about 17 grams/gram, and a saturation capacity as determined by the Saturation Capacity Test of at least about 50 grams.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a composition for use in the treatment of a detached retina, comprising a dispersion of nanoparticles in a liquid, wherein the nanoparticles have a specific gravity which is higher than that of the liquid and the individual refractive indices of the nanoparticles and the liquid are substantially similar to one another. The present invention also relates to a composition for use in the treatment of a detached retina, comprising a dispersion of silica nanoparticles in a liquid, a method and kit of parts for producing the compositions and a method of treating a detached retina.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel substrates, to methods of making them and to uses therefor. The substrates of the invention comprise a base portion and a surface layer covering at least part of the base portion, with a binding layer provided therebetween. The surface layer provides, on at least a part of the substrate, topographical features having at least one nano scale dimension. These topographical features are adapted to inhibit cell or tissue growth thereon and/or therebetween.
摘要:
A hybrid absorbent foam includes an integrated hybrid foam layer having an open surface, a closed surface, and a foam body extending between the open and closed surfaces. The integrated hybrid foam layer has an open-cell content of at least 50%, while the closed surface provides a barrier to aqueous liquids. The integrated hybrid foam layer is formed as a single layer, and has a substantially uniform polymer composition throughout its thickness. The integrated hybrid foam layer combines the functions of liquid absorbency, retention, and barrier into a single layer, and is useful in a wide variety of absorbent articles.
