A laser platable thermoplastic composition includes from about 38 wt % to about 90 wt % of a thermoplastic polymer, from about 0.01 wt % to about 15 wt % of a laser activatable metal compound, and from about 0.01 wt % to about 60 wt % of a magnetic filler. The magnetic filler includes a magnetic alloy. Methods for making laser platable thermoplastic compositions and articles formed therefrom—such as an induction heater for a domestic or commercial appliance—are also described.

A heat-resistant silicone resin composition contains a silicone resin and a heat resistance improver. The heat resistance improver is an organic polycyclic aromatic compound having one or more secondary amino groups and one or more ketone groups in a ring structure. The organic polycyclic aromatic compound maybe, e.g., quinacridone (P.V. 19) represented by the following Chemical Formula 2. A silicone resin composite material of the present invention includes the heat-resistant silicone resin composition and at least one filler selected from the group consisting of an inorganic filler and an organic filler. The at least one filler is contained in the heat-resistant silicone resin composition. Thus, the silicone resin composition and the silicone resin composite material have high heat resistance.

A liquid adhesive coating composition that cures into a solid form, used to non-permanently adhere interior floor or wall coverings to substrate floor or wall surfaces respectively, includes a polymer incorporating iron or other paramagnetic, superparamagnetic, ferromagnetic, or ferrimagnetic ingredients, that becomes permanently adhered to the substrate as it cures, and thereafter provides a low-tack adhesive surface that is also magnetically attractive, upon which magnetized floor or wall coverings including certain types of carpet, linoleum, vinyl, wallpaper, and other types of magnetically-backed coverings can be subsequently installed. The combined low-tack adhesive and magnetic adhesion qualities of the cured composition of the invention allow for the magnetically-backed floor or wall coverings to be sufficiently well adhered to the surface of the cured adhesive composition to remain in place during normal usage while retaining the ability for the coverings to be subsequently removed, repositioned or replaced without damaging the respective coverings, adhesive coating composition layer, or substrate.

The invention discloses a high performance plastic magnetic material, comprising a low surface energy layer, a magnetic layer and a printable layer, wherein the magnetic layer and the printable layer are arranged successively on a first side of the low surface energy layer; the low surface energy layer is an organic silicon pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The invention further discloses a preparation method, comprising the following steps: pretreating a magnetic powder with a coupling agent; mixing the pretreated magnetic powder with matrix components and auxiliaries to gain a mixture; extrusion compositing the gained mixture with a printable layer to gain composite paper having the printable layer and a magnetic layer; and applying a low surface energy layer on a side of the magnetic layer, opposite the printable layer. As no UV layer and no adhesive residue, the material of the invention is environmentally friendly and highly reliable.

This invention provides parasitic millirobots that can effectively adapt to an unstructured environment and coherently interact with diverse objects in order to fulfil various application needs. Particularly, a minimalist millirobot construction strategy by splashing composited agglutinate magnetic spray (M-spray) is adopted, which is capable of self-turning multifarious milli-/centi-objects into parasitic millirobots on-demand. Through taking full advantage of the objects' inherent structure and a covered thin drivable film, the M-spray demonstrates superior handling (from 1-D to 3-D structures) and loading capabilities (up to thousand-fold and hundred-fold of its volume and weight, respectively) while with neglectable size increment (as low as 1%) to target. Moreover, benefitting from peculiarities of online reprogramming and controllable disintegration, the parasitic millirobots can rewrite its locomotion mode according to the task and disintegrate themselves after mission accomplished, offering high adaptivity and compatibility for in vivo biomedical applications. Methods for conversion and fabrication thereof are also provided.
