A composition of matter is described in which a porous material, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), is coated with parylene N, C, D, or AF-4 by vapor deposition polymerization while a temperature of the porous material's surface being coated is heated to between 60 C. and 120 C., or 80 C. and 85 C., during deposition. The parylene forms nano roots within the porous material that connect with a conformal surface coating of parylene. In some embodiments, a watertight separation chamber in an integrated microfluidic liquid chromatography device is fabricated by heating tunnels in micro-fabricated PDMS and depositing parylene within the heated tunnels.

The present invention describes a coating with lubricating and anti-scratch properties, comprising glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane and phenyltriethoxysilane. The present invention further describes a varnish product for producing such coating and a glass product, in particular a pharmaceutical primary glass container having such coating. Last, but not least, a method is disclosed for protecting a glass surface.

A coated article having a substrate coated with a layer of a sulfonate-functional coating, and methods of making and using.

Glass flakes of the present invention include glass flake substrates and a coating covering at least a portion of the surface of each of the glass flake substrates and composed of a binder. The binder includes a lubricant other than silicone, or a lubricant and an aminosilane. The proportion of the lubricant in the binder is 30 mass % or less.

A coating composition is described comprising: (i) a zwitterionic compound comprising sulfonate-functional groups and alkoxysilane groups and/or silanol-functional groups; (ii) alcohol and/or water; and (iii) a tetraalkoxysilane, oligomers thereof, lithium silicate, sodium silicate, potassium silicate, silica, or combinations thereof, along with coated articles and methods of using.

The present invention provides, in various embodiments, compositions and methods for strengthening glass without heat or chemical processing of the glass itself. The compositions of the present invention are emulsions comprising polymer colloid particles that are functionalized with an organosilicon compound. The polymer colloid particles can fill surface defects in the glass due to their size being smaller than the surface defects, and the functional groups thereon can react with the surface of the glass to anchor the particles in the defects.

A carrier substrate includes: a base substrate; a first coating layer on a first surface of the base substrate; and a second coating layer on a second surface of the base substrate. The thermal expansion coefficients of the first coating layer and the second coating layer are greater than a thermal expansion coefficient of the base substrate, and a thickness of the first coating layer is different from a thickness of the second coating layer.

The invention relates to an aqueously dispersible epoxy resin E, comprising building blocks derived from an aliphatic polyether polyol A, an epoxy resin B having at least two epoxide groups per molecule, an epoxy resin B having at least two epoxide groups per molecule, which may be identical to B, or different from B, an epoxy-functional fatty acid ester D, and an aromatic polyol C, a process for the preparation thereof, and a method of use thereof.

Methods for preparing durable hydrophobic, oleophobic, and anti-icing coatings by applying a composition that comprises a lacquer binder, one or more types of particles having a size of about 30 microns to about 225 micron, and one or more types of particles modified with hexamethyldisilazane, polydimethylsiloxane or silanizing agents are set forth, along with the resulting coatings and methods of their use.
