The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a polymer coated cellulose based substrate useful as a barrier film, said method comprising the steps of: a) providing a cellulose based substrate comprising 50-99 wt % highly refined cellulose fibers based on the total dry weight of the cellulose based substrate; b) preparing an aqueous foam from an aqueous solution of a foam forming polymer; c) applying the aqueous foam to at least one surface of the cellulose based substrate; and d) collapsing the aqueous foam to form a polymer coating on the cellulose based substrate.

A matter-repellent colloid-infused smooth surface (CISS) device has a solid substrate with a smooth surface where a thin coating of a non-volatile lubricating fluid and a plurality of nanoparticles and/or microparticles reside on the surface. The non-volatile lubricating fluid can be a perfluorinated fluid and the nanoparticles and/or microparticles can be polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to provide a slippery surface to a metal, ceramic, glass, or plastic substrate. As needed, the smooth surface of the substrate can be modified with a silylating agent that is miscible with the lubricating fluid to enhance the stability of the coating smooth surface interface. In this manner, tubes, catheters, vials, bottles, or other devices can be imparted with a slippery surface that repels most gases, liquids, and solids.

Methods for treating a cured inner liner as well as treated, cured inner liners resulting from such methods are disclosed. Also disclosed are tires containing the treated inner liners. The methods include treatment of the lower surface of inner liner surface with a rubber-containing liquid to produce a rubber-containing film thereupon.

An anti-glare film is disclosed. The anti-glare film comprises a transparent substrate and an anti-glare layer comprising an acrylic binder resin, a polyether-modified siloxane and a plurality of silica nanoparticles, wherein the silica nanoparticles are flocculated into a micro-floccule with an average secondary particle diameter of 1,500 nm to 3,100 nm. The present anti-glare film can provide a reliable anti-glare property with low haze and fine surface.

A medical implant includes a first implant body and a pre-coating covering at least a portion of an outer surface of the first implant body. The pre-coating has a negative Poisson's ratio. A method of making a medical implant includes applying a precursor material on a surface of a first implant body, the first implant body having a positive Poisson's ratio. A stimulus is applied to the precursor material, the stimulus causing the precursor material to form a coating having a negative Poisson's ratio
