A silyl protected diacrylamide compound is described. A method of forming such a compound includes mixing a silylation reagent with a hydroxylated diamine compound under first reactive conditions to form a product in a first solution, separating the product from the first solution, and mixing the product with acryloyl chloride under second reactive conditions in a second solution to form a silyl protected diacrylamide compound.

Biocidal metallic compositions and films, and methods for making and adhering biocidal compositions and films to surfaces requiring continued protection without requiring frequent cleaning are disclosed. The biocidal compositions may include metals, such as copper or silver powder, which are applied to the exposed surface of a variety of different resins, glues, epoxies, solvents or other surface treatments to create a biocidal film over the surface of product substrates including metals, leathers, papers, plastics, cardstocks, and glass surfaces.

Processes for converting lignocellulose to feedstock and downstream products are disclosed. The processes may include acid treatment of lignocellulose to produce a fermentation feedstock. In various instances, the processes include recovery or recycling of acid, such as recovery of hydrochloric acid from concentrated and/or dilute streams. Downstream products may include acrylic acid-based products such as diapers, paper and paper-based products, ethanol, biofuels such as biodiesel and fuel additives, and detergents.

To provide a method for protecting a Low-E glass plate, the method being capable of preventing or inhibiting alteration of Low-E layers. Provided is a Low-E glass plate protection method. The protection method includes a step of applying a protective sheet to a surface of a Low-E glass plate having a Low-E layer comprising a zinc component. Here, the protective sheet has a PSA layer. The Low-E layer comprises a zinc component. The PSA layer includes an adsorbent capable of adsorbing ammonia.

Described is a hard coating composition composed of a silazane compound, a polyfunctional (meth)acryl-based dendrimer compound or a polyfunctional urethane (meth)acrylate having a cyclohexyl group, a photoinitiator and a solvent, and to a hard coating film, a window film, and a display device including the same, thus exhibiting superior scratch resistance, hardness and flexibility.

The present invention relates to specific deoxybenzoin containing flame retardant polyesters and flame retardant thermoplastic polymer molding compositions comprising deoxybenzoin containing flame retardant polyesters as well as their preparation and use for producing moldings, fibers or foils.

Hoses include an inner tube, a reinforcement layer disposed outwardly from the inner tube, and a cover layer disposed outwardly from the reinforcement layer, where the cover layer and/or the inner tube includes a cured composition having a sustainable content and formed from a mixture including EPDM/EPR sustainable polymer and a sulfur or peroxide based curing system. In some cases, the EPDM/EPR sustainable polymer has ethylene monomer derived from one or more renewable sources, such as, ethylene monomer derived from sugar cane. The mixture may further include one or more of recovered carbon black and sustainable oils from renewable sources. The hose embodiments may also include the reinforcement layer formed of fibers from sustainable material. The hose may contain the sustainable content in an amount of up to 75% by weight based upon total hose weight, or even greater than 25% by weight based upon total hose weight.
