C. or less;thickening agent of a type and in a sufficient amount to provide the composition with Bingham plastic properties upon shear;optionally additional water;water dispersible inorganic pigment(s); andoptional pH adjusting agent;the composition pH being about 6 to about 9.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is generally directed to illumination devices, and particularly directed to illumination devices utilizing light transmissive layers and methods for making the same. An illumination device and method for making the device are disclosed. The device, in particular, includes a substrate and conductive region disposed on the substrate. One or more light sources, such as LEDs, are disposed on a surface of the substrate and electrically coupled to the electrically conductive region for supply of electric current. The device also includes one or more light transmissive layers disposed on the substrate and the at least one light source to encapsulate light sources and also to control characteristics of light delivery from the light sources as light passes through the light transmissive layers.
Abstract:
The present invention is generally directed to illumination devices, and particularly directed to illumination devices which utilize thin light sources or edge-lit sources in combination with a light turning plate. The illumination devices may be used in a broad range of applications, and are particularly suited for the interior lighting of vehicles.
Abstract:
A wax composition comprising a wax component and a copolymer. The copolymer comprises a backbone, a pendant aliphatic group, a pendant fluorinated group, and a pendant polydiorganosiloxane group. Also, a wax composition comprising a silicone fluid, solvent, and an alkoxylated wax component, the alkoxylated wax component comprising one or poly(alkoxy) groups attached to the wax component at a free alcohol group, a free acid group, or an olefinic group.
