The present invention relates to an aqueous polyurethane dispersion, a method for the preparation thereof, a product comprising the same, and use thereof for a coating composition, an impregnating composition, an adhesive or a sealant. The aqueous polyurethane dispersion comprises a polyurethane obtained by reacting a system comprising the following components: A1) at least one polyisocyanate having an isocyanate functionality of not less than 2; A2) at least two different polytetramethylene ether glycols A2a) and A2b), the A2a) having a number average molecular weight of not more than 1500 g/mol, the A2b) having a number average molecular weight of more than 1500 g/mol; and A3) at least one anionic or potentially anionic hydrophilic agent having a number average molecular weight of 32 g/mol to 400 g/mol and containing hydroxyl and carboxyl functions; B) at least one amino-functional anionic or potentially anionic hydrophilic agent; and C) at least one amino-functional compound having a number average molecular weight of 32 g/mol to 400 g/mol and containing no hydrophilic group; wherein the ratio of the number average molecular weight of the A2a) to the number average molecular weight of the A2b) is 1:9 to less than 1:1, and the weight of the A3) amounts to 20% to 70% of the weight of the hydrophilic agents of the system, wherein the hydrophilic agents of the system are components A3 and B.

The primary objective of the present invention is to provide an ultrasound gel that can be applied directly to wounds for emergency personnel in the field or in the Emergency Department. The problems is that one does not want to contaminate a wound with normal ultrasound gel and sterile ultrasound gel may take extra time to apply and cause irritation or sensitization to an open wound. This ultrasound gel is designed to be applied to open contaminated wounds by medical personnel for diagnostic evaluation of trauma, critical care, or emergency patients.

A plant-based functional polyester filament and a preparation method of the plant-based functional polyester filament are provided. The plant-based functional polyester filament includes polyester, and plant extract in a weight percentage range of approximately 0.1%-1.5%. The plant extract includes one or more of a peppermint extract, a valerian extract, a lavender extract, a wormwood extract, a chitin extract and a seaweed extract. The method includes preparing a plant-based functional polyester masterbatch, including: heating polyethylene terephthalate (PET) chips to a molten state, adding an antioxidant and a dispersant to the molten PET, stirring the molten PET, adding a protective agent and a plant extract to the molten PET, stirring the molten PET at a high speed, adding a modifier to the molten PET, obtaining a mixture by uniformly mixing the molten PET, and performing an extrusion granulation process on the mixture.

Disclosed herein are methods of making active, food-grade packaging resins using a reactive extrusion step that involves reacting a polymeric material with a ligand and one of a cross-linking agent and a radical initiator in an extruder, under temperature and pressure conditions effective to cause covalent binding of the ligand to the polymeric material by a linker that is the reaction product of the cross-linking agent or by direct bond formation between the ligand and the polymeric material, and then extruding the active, food-grade packaging resin. Also disclosed are the active packaging resins obtained from such methods, methods of forming food packaging materials from the active packaging resins, the food packaging materials that contain the active packaging resins, and methods of packaging perishable food in those food packaging materials.

A resin composition useful for additive manufacturing is provided, which resin composition may exhibit improved shelf life through inhibition of crystallization. Such resin composition may include a crystallization inhibitor as taught herein, and/or a prepolymer produced by reaction of an isocyanate with multiple isomers and comprising a lower percentage of the structurally symmetric isomer. Methods of forming a three-dimensional object using such resin composition are also provided.
