To provide a resin molding mold capable of forming a resin molded product having embossing in which by controlling appearance of gloss, its texture is improved, and the resin molded product is prevented from occurrence of white blurring on the surface on which the molded embossing is formed.

A resin molding mold in accordance with the present application is used for molding a resin molded product having embossing formed thereon. The resin molding mold includes a molding mold and a buffer layer formed on an inside mold surface of the molding mold. The buffer layer is formed by a mixture of a thermosetting resin and fine particles having substantially spherical shapes. The fine particles have a bulk specific gravity in a range from 0.4 g/ml or more to 0.9 g/ml or less, and on the surface of the buffer layer, a plurality of gloss adjusting convex portions having substantially spherical shapes derived from the fine particles are formed.

Breath-activated images and anti-counterfeit authentication features formed of nanopillar arrays

Disclosed are articles having authentication features, as well as methods for authenticating such articles by forming authentication features to prevent or diminish counterfeiting activities. A surface of an article to be authenticated (or a surface of a component associated with the article) may have a region with a periodic array of nanopillars comprising a polymeric material formed thereon. The array of nanopillars thus defines an authentication feature (e.g., a graphic image or other pattern). In certain aspects, the authentication feature may be substantially invisible to the human eye under normal conditions, but revealed when condensate is created on the surface by exposure to moisture or vapor (e.g., human breath). The methods of forming nanopillar arrays disclosed herein are simple and permit single-step replication with high fidelity. Furthermore, the methods may be used with a variety of substrates, including fabric, textiles, leather, glass, paper, and metals by way of non-limiting example.

Flexible Microstructured Superhydrophobic Materials
20170144202 · 2017-05-25 ·

Described herein are flexible superhydrophobic films. Also described are methods for imparting superhydrophobicity to a variety of objects, for example objects having any shape or surface contours. For specific applications, the flexible superhydrophobic films include an adhesive backing layer, useful for attaching the film to objects. Some of the films described herein allow for selective control over the wettability of a surface by flexing the film, for example flexing the film results in a more wettable film, a less wettable film or a film having unchanged wettability. Flexible superhydrophobic films described herein also include films which maintain their superhydrophobicity when deformed into a concave or convex curvature.
