The present disclosure relates to semi-permanent tattoos, for example, genipin-based ink compositions. In some embodiments, the ink composition comprises: genipin present in an amount of about 10% to about 20% w/w of the composition; a solvent present in an amount of about 65% to about 80% w/w of the composition; and one or more of a thickening agent, humectant, and film-forming agent present in an amount of 0.01% to about 10% w/w of the composition. In some embodiments, the composition further includes a preservative.

The invention provides a method for producing photochromic silicone hydrogel (SiHy) contact lenses based on thermal cast-molding technology in a relatively efficient and consistent manner. The method is characterized by selecting a high radical-reactive hydrophilic acrylic monomer while eliminating any low radical-reactive hydrophilic N-vinyl amide monomer in a lens formulation (polymerizable composition), by selecting a weight ratio of low-radical-reactive hydrophilic N-vinyl amide monomer to a high radical-reactive hydrophilic acrylic monomer in a lens formulation if the low radical-reactive hydrophilic N-vinyl amide monomer is needed, and/or by using a relatively high temperature thermal initiator in a lens formulation, to control the lens properties (e.g., water content, elastic modulus, etc.) and lens processability (capability of dry-delensing from molds) of thermally cast-molded SiHy contact lenses while minimizing loss in photochromic ability of resultant SiHy contact lenses.

The present invention provides a preparation method of an anti-counterfeiting lyocell fiber, including the following steps: dissolving at least one amino acid metal chelate and a cellulose pulp in an aqueous solution of a cellosolve to obtain a spinning solution, and then performing wet spinning using the spinning solution to obtain an anti-counterfeiting lyocell fiber, wherein the amino acid metal chelate account for 0.2% to 0.6% of the total mass of the anti-counterfeiting lyocell fiber. The anti-counterfeiting lyocell fiber of the present invention uses an amino acid metal chelate for encryption, and the process is simple. The prepared product can be provided with one or two passwords based on the ratio of metal ions and the amino acids, so that the product prepared from this fiber has the advantages of memory tracking properties, identification function and high anti-counterfeiting capability grade.

Coating compositions and methods providing a high build, fast drying, fast hardening non-amine containing aqueous latex binders are provided, wherein the coating composition is applied to a substrate at a wet film thickness to about 15 mils that ensure drying times of less than 10 minutes. The binder requires the use of at least one specific coalescent solvent with both anionic and non-anionic surfactants.

To provide a disposable diaper enabling reduction in re-wet amount and having an excellent speed of incorporating liquid regardless of concentration and configuration of a water-absorbing agent in an absorbent material. A water-absorbing agent having excellent Gel Capillary Absorption (GCA) and Free Gel Bed Permeability (FGBP) is obtained by crushing a crosslinked hydrogel polymer obtained in a polymerization step to have a specific weight average particle diameter while fluid retention capacity and a surface tension of a water-absorbing agent are adjusted in a specific range, drying the crushed crosslinked hydrogel polymer, and then adding a liquid permeability enhancer thereto during surface crosslinking or after surface crosslinking.

The present invention discloses a method for increasing absorbent capacity of a superabsorbent material (SAM) by treating the SAM with a selected salt or a combination of such salts. The selected salt(s) may interact with the polymer chain of the SAM through one or more absorbent capacity enhancement mechanisms. The absorbent capacity enhancement mechanism(s) between selected salt(s) and the SAM may lead to greater absorbent capacity of the SAM.
