The present disclosure relates to polythioaminals with applications as carriers or delivery vehicles for therapeutic agents or other small molecule cargo. Polythioaminal block copolymer coupled to a therapeutic agent is a polymer-therapeutic conjugate that exhibits higher stability and longer life time in aqueous environments. The polythioaminal block copolymer coupled to a therapeutic agent can be synthesized by reacting hexahydrotriazines with a hydrophobic block precursor, a hydrophilic block precursor, a particle stabilizing segment precursor, and a cargo, such as a therapeutic agent, in a one pot synthesis. The ease of synthesizing the resulting polythioaminal block copolymer coupled to the therapeutic agent while offering the extended stability and polymer life time in aqueous environments make the polythioaminal block copolymer particularly attractive for therapeutic carriers.

A water-based primer composition is particularly suitable for the pre-treatment of polycarbonate substrates, and has a component K1 having an aqueous epoxy resin dispersion, an aqueous polyester-polyurethane dispersion and an aqueous polyacrylate dispersion, and optionally a water-miscible organic solvent, and a second component K2 containing a water-dispersible curing agent based on isocyanate. The primers provide a strong bonding of subsequently applied adhesives to polycarbonate substrates, and permit a processing with a significant reduction in VOC emissions and the prevention of the occurrence of stress-cracks.

A camera cover is provided. The camera cover has a coating formed on a surface of the camera cover. The coating contains a urethane acrylate resin. The camera cover has a dome shape and is designed to protect an image capturing unit. A Berkovich hardness at an indenter penetration depth of 100 to 300 nm on a surface of the coating is at least 0.4 GPa.
