The present technology provides a carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex including a carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer including a conjugated diene-based monomer-derived unit, an ethylenic unsaturated nitrile-based monomer-derived unit, and an ethylenic unsaturated acid monomer-derived unit, wherein the carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex satisfies General Formula 1 and General Formula 2.

A method for forming at least a first primary droplet onto a primary fiber includes arranging part of the primary fiber into a reserve of liquid or viscous polymer based material so the primary fiber extends through and on both sides of the reserve. The primary fiber and/or the reserve move relative to each other so a first part of the primary fiber moves out from the reserve with a first primary velocity, forming a first primary layer of the liquid or viscous polymer based material onto the first part of the primary fiber. The first primary layer of the liquid or viscous polymer based material is allowed to form a first primary droplet onto the primary fiber holding the primary fiber relative to the reserve or moving the primary fiber and/or the reserve relative to each other with a first secondary velocity less than the first primary velocity.

Embodiments relate to a process for preparing a poly(amide-imide) film and a poly(amide-imide) film prepared thereby. The process is capable of preparing a poly(amide-imide) film that is excellent in optical properties and mechanical properties.

A linerless composite tank for a waste or water system on board an aerospace vehicle includes a monolithic tank body having a first composite material co-cured with a second composite material. The first composite material includes a first resin and the second composite material includes a second resin that is different from the first resin. The first composite material forms an innermost surface of the monolithic tank body defining a tank chamber of the monolithic tank body. A method of manufacturing the linerless composite tank includes providing a mold having a desired interior shape of the monolithic tank, applying the first composite material to the mold, applying the second composite material to the mold, and co-curing the first composite material with the second composite material to form the monolithic composite tank.

The present technology relates to a latex composition for dip molding comprising a carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer latex satisfying General Formulas 1 and 2, wherein the carboxylic acid-modified nitrile-based copolymer includes a conjugated diene-based monomer-derived unit, an ethylenic unsaturated nitrile-based monomer-derived unit, and an ethylenic unsaturated acid monomer-derived unit, and a molded article.

A method for producing a containing system for a liquid dispenser having a dimensionally stable outer container and a collapsible inner container, in the form of a pouch, arranged within the outer container. The method includes starting from the outer container, at least one layer of a pouch material being applied to an inner wall of the outer container. For this purpose, the pouch material is applied in the form of a liquid or powder to the inner wall, where, after solidifying or fusing, it forms a ply of a wall, of the inner container. The ply detaches from the inner wall of the outer container when the inner container collapses.

The present disclosure relates to a method for preparing a self-cleaning anti-icing coating based on brushlike organosilicon. In this method, a brushlike organosilicon-modified polyurethane coating is prepared by subjecting a thiolactone, a diamine compound and monovinyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane to a simple multi-component click reaction to obtain a dihydroxy-terminated block, and introducing the dihydroxy-terminated block into a polyurethane matrix.

The present invention introduces the use of a carbon nanotube-based material in the production of phased array patch antennas of various shapes and sizes including slot and spiral patch antennas. The use of this material provides the ability for the antennas to withstand high-intensity shock vibrations and other intense disturbances and continue emitting phased array signals. Furthermore, the use of this material for patch antennas allows for the alteration of the desired frequency and directional degree of interest by simply energizing various elements within the carbon nanotube-based material.

A faux leather biomaterial is disclosed. It may be made from shell seafood waste and coffee grounds with the aim to work as a sustainable alternative instead of prior art faux and animal leathers.

The invention relates to a method for forming an article comprising a pathway of particles wherein a termination of the pathway of particles is exposed. The method comprises arranging the particles by applying an electric field and/or a magnetic field at an interface between a water soluble or a non-water soluble matrix and a matrix comprising a viscous material and particles. After fixating the viscous material, the termination is exposed by dissolving the water soluble or non-water soluble matrix. The invention also relates to articles obtainable by said method, and to the use of said method in various applications.
