The oxide shell is formed from tetraalkyl orthosilicate, tetraalkyl orthotitanate, or a combination thereof, and the organic pigment core and the tetraalkyl orthosilicate, tetraalkyl orthotitanate, or the combination thereof have a weight ratio of 1:0.7 to 1:3.

The invention relates to a security pigment, comprising core-shell particles having a core based on an organic addition polymer, a shell based on an organic condensation polymer and a feature substance present in the core in finely dispersed or dissolved form, wherein the addition polymer is a three-dimensionally cross-linked duromer.

A pigment system of different capsule-luminescent pigments have different emission spectra, preferably different color impressions of the luminescence emission, and possess substantially the same chemical stabilities. The capsule-luminescent pigments are based on organic or metalorganic luminescent substances.

Conductive coating compositions and methods of preparation and application thereof are provided, whereby a mixture of conductive polymer encapsulated particles and non-encapsulated particles are employed to provide a conductive surface coating with controllable viscosity and conductivity. The particles may be filler and/or pigment particles such as calcium carbonate or clay, a portion of which are coated with a conductive polymer such as polypyrrole. Encapsulated particles are prepared and filtered, mixed with non-encapsulated particles, and subsequently combined with a binder for application to a surface or substrate such as paper. A dispersant may be included to obtain a suitable viscosity of the mixture prior to application. The relative concentrations of the encapsulated and non-encapsulated particles may be selected to tailor the resulting conductivity of the coating.

This invention relates to non-bleeding, non-staining occult particles for use in granular or powdered laundry care compositions such as laundry detergents, laundry aids, and fabric care compositions. The occult particles are comprised of a clay carrier and a coloring agent and are characterized as being substantially indiscernible when contained in the laundry care composition.

The present invention provides a nanoparticle containing a hydrophobic fluorescent substance accumulated therein and a thermosetting resin as a matrix, which nanoparticle, when used for labeling of a biological substance such as a protein or nucleic acid, has brightness sufficient for allowing pathological diagnosis using a fluorescence image obtained thereby. The present invention is a phosphor integrated dots nanoparticles wherein a thermosetting resin contains a structural unit formed from a raw material containing a hydrophobic substituent, and wherein a fluorescent substance is accumulated in the nanoparticle at least by hydrophobic interaction, preferably further by stacking interaction, with the hydrophobic substituent of the thermosetting resin.

A variable transmission film may include an electrophoretic medium having a plurality of capsules and a binder, each capsule containing a plurality of electrically charged particles and a fluid, the charged particles being movable by application of an electric field and being capable of being switched between an open state and a closed state.
