The current invention relates to a novel water-soluble, biodegradable, non-toxic, composition, and methods thereof, for reducing indoor and outdoor pollution of ambient air that is in proximity to a surface coated with the disclosed composition. The disclosed particle-binding composition comprises di- and trivalent alcohols, at least one thickener, at least one short chain triglyceride, and optionally, at least one additive.

The invention discloses a method for recycling and reusing polyurethane foam. The method includes: (1) The functionalized oligomers are obtained by adding solvent and catalyst to the polyurethane foam. (2) The functionalized oligomers are chemically modified, and the photosensitive group is introduced through the functional group reaction. The diluent, photoinitiator, and light absorber, etc. are introduced into the obtained oligomers to prepare photocurable resin. It can be used for photocurable coatings or 3D printing. This method has a fast reaction time, easy recovery of solvent and catalyst, higher value-added recycled product, good economic benefits, and social value.

The present invention is directed to coated articles demonstrating a transmission of electromagnetic radiation having a frequency of 22 to 81 GHz in the range of 70% to 100%. The articles comprise substrates coated with curable film-forming compositions comprising a first film-forming polymer prepared from at least one hydrophobic monomer, a second film-forming polymer prepared from at least one hydrophobic monomer, and a curing agent. Upon application of the curable film-forming composition to the substrate to form a coating layer, the first film-forming polymer is distributed throughout the coating layer, and the concentration of the second film-forming polymer is greater at the surface of the coating layer than the concentration of the second film-forming polymer within the bulk of the coating layer. The present invention is also drawn to methods of mitigating contaminant build-up on a substrate using the curable film-forming compositions described above.
