A transparent peelable polyester film is provided having a base layer (B) with first and second surfaces. A layer (C) is applied on the base layer (B). A heat-sealable layer (A), peelable to APET AND RPET, is applied on the opposing surface of the base layer (B). The heat-sealable and peelable outer layer (A) is formed from (a) from 85 to 99% by weight of polyester and (b) from 1 to 15% by weight of other substances. The polyester is formed from 25 to 95 mol % of units derived from at least one aromatic dicarboxylic acid and from 5 to 75 mol % of units derived from at least one aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, and the polyester includes at least 10 mol % of units derived from linear or branched diols having more than 2 and the layer (C) includes crosslinked acrylate and/or methacrylate-based copolymers.

Cyclodextrin compositions including one or more radiation polymerizable monomers and a cyclodextrin inclusion complex, the cyclodextrin inclusion complex including a cyclodextrin compound and an olefinic inhibitor of an ethylene generation in produce, are coated onto packaging materials and cured. Treated containers and treated package inserts having the cured cyclodextrin compositions are useful in packaging of respiring plant materials.

A method for depositing a coating comprising a polymer and pharmaceutical agent on a substrate, comprising the following steps: discharging at least one pharmaceutical agent in a therapeutically desirable morphology in dry powder form through a first orifice; discharging at least one polymer in dry powder form through a second orifice; depositing the polymer and/or pharmaceutical particles onto said substrate, wherein an electrical potential is maintained between the substrate and the pharmaceutical and/or polymer particles, thereby forming said coating; and sintering said coating under conditions that do not substantially modify the morphology of said pharmaceutical agent.

The present disclosure relates to polymer coatings covalently attached to the surface of a substrate and the preparation of the polymer coatings, such as poly(N-(5-azidoacetamidylpentyl)acrylamide-co-acrylamide) (PAZAM), in the formation and manipulation of substrates, such as molecular arrays and flow cells. The present disclosure also relates to methods of preparing a substrate surface by using beads coated with a covalently attached polymer, such as PAZAM, and the method of determining a nucleotide sequence of a polynucleotide attached to a substrate surface described herein.

Disclosed is a light control film comprising: two transparent electroconductive resin substrates; and a light control layer sandwiched between the two transparent electroconductive resin substrates, the light control layer comprising: a resin matrix; and a light control suspension dispersed in the resin matrix, wherein at least one of the transparent electroconductive resin substrates has, on the light control layer side thereof, a primer layer, and the primer layer is made of a thin film comprising a material containing a (meth)acrylate having, in the molecule thereof, a hydroxyl group. Thus, it is possible to provide a light control film that improves the adhesion between a film matrix and a substrate, and that achieves a stable light control function.

The present invention relates to novel nanocomposite materials, methods of making nanocomposites and uses of nanocomposite materials.

The invention relates to the use of a melt-in-place acrylic binder that is applied to a substrate in the form of a powder, followed by a fusing together of the binder powder by heat or radiation. Particulate filler is present either on the substrate, mixed with the binder powder, or admixed into the binder powder prior to fusion. The fused binder helps adhere the particulate fillers to the substrate, and may or may not cover the particulate filler.

The present invention provides an optical layered body having excellent antistatic properties, optical characteristics, hardness, adhesion, and interference fringe prevention performance, which can be produced at a low cost. An optical layered body having a hard coat layer provided on a triacetylcellulose substrate, wherein a resin composition used for forming the hard coat layer contains a quaternary ammonium salt-containing polymer, a binder resin, and a solvent; the quaternary ammonium salt-containing polymer has a higher hydrophilicity than the binder resin; and the binder resin contains two or more resin components having different hydrophilicities.

A composition for fixing wound items is provided. In one example, the composition comprises 5 to 97 wt % of at least one ,-unsaturated polyester resin and/or ,-unsaturated polyester imide resin comprising components of at least one ,-ethylenically unsaturated mono-, di- and/or tricarboxylic acid, and/or its anhydride and/or ester, at least one polyol, at least one (meth)acrylic group containing component, possibly at least one mono-, di-, tri- and/or tetracarboxylic acid, which is not ,-ethylenically unsaturated, and/or its anhydride and/or ester.

Provided herein are glass laminates, preferably safety glass laminates, that comprise a polymeric interlayer sheet formed of an acid copolymer composition. The acid copolymer composition comprises an ethylene acid copolymer which, in turn, comprises copolymerized units of ethylene, about 5 to about 90 wt % of copolymerized units of a first ,-unsaturated carboxylic acid having 3 to 10 carbon atoms; and optionally about 2 to about 40 wt % of copolymerized units of a derivative of a second ,-unsaturated carboxylic acid having 3 to 10 carbon atoms. Optionally, a portion of the carboxylic acid groups of the copolymerized units of the ethylene acid copolymer are neutralized to form carboxylate salts. The acid copolymer composition also includes a hydroxyl-containing crosslinking agent and may also include an adjuvant. The glass laminates have superior resistance to creeping due to the properties of the acid copolymer composition, which may optionally be cross-linked.
