Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to ionic compositions having hydrophobic characteristics and/or reduced corrosiveness upon application to metallic substrates. An ionic composition, which may be used as an adhesive material for selectively adhering two electroconducting surface together is also described herein, wherein the application of electromotive force to the electroconducting materials can reduce the adhesion of the adhesive material. Some embodiments provide a hydrophobic ionic debonding compound include a benzimidazolium cation and a sulfonylimide anion.
Abstract:
An electrically debondable adhesive composition is described. The adhesive is comprised of a basic ionic liquid and an optionally crosslinked polymer, wherein the basic ionic liquid is comprised of a cyclic amino-ammonium cation and a bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion.

This disclosure is related to photo-stable chromophores which are useful in various applications. Chromophores disclosed herein include a bis-triazole core, two electron-donors at C-4 and C-8, and two groups derived from pentaerythritol (R═OR5) or 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)methane (R═H) at N-2 and N-6. Such structures have been proven to have greater then five times higher photo-stability than their analogs with simpler alkyl groups at N-2 and N-6.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an encapsulation structure comprising a luminescent wavelength conversion material for at least one solar cell or photovoltaic device which acts to enhance the solar harvesting efficiency of the solar cell device.
