A fluid storage media includes a plurality of microspheres. Each microsphere includes a porous core with a porous core material and having an exterior surface. A stored fluid is within the porous core. A coating layer covers all of the exterior surface of the porous core. The coating layer includes a coating material which transitions from a first state to a second state, wherein in the first state the coating material is permeable to the stored fluid, and in the second state the material is impermeable to the stored fluid. The coating material in the second state is configured to encapsulate and maintain the stored fluid inside the porous core. A method of making a fluid storage media, a method of delivering a fluid and a method of delivering a biologically active fluid medication to a patient are also disclosed.

An interlayer film for laminated glass including a first resin layer including a thermoplastic resin and a second resin layer including a thermoplastic resin, wherein, for laminated glass made by adhering two clear glass plates to each other via the interlayer film for laminated glass, a visible light reflectance Rv1 measured on a surface on the first resin layer side is 10% or more and a visible light reflectance (Rv2) measured on a surface on the second resin layer side is 7% or less.

An article including a composite. The composite includes a polymeric binder and particles in the polymeric binder, the particles being magnetically responsive and having a flake-like geometry. The particles include a thermally anisotropic material such that the particles are characterized by a higher in-plane thermal conductivity and a lower through-plane conductivity. The composite is characterized by at least one preferred thermal conduction path defined in sections of differently oriented alignments of the particles. At least two of the sections are differently oriented relative to one another by a gradient angular difference such that the at least two of the sections are non-parallel and non-perpendicular to one another. In specific embodiments, the particles are hexagonal boron nitride with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles adsorbed thereon, and the polymeric binder includes polyvinyl pyrrolidone.
