Pillar delivery films for vacuum insulated glass units are disclosed. The delivery films include a support film or pocket tape, a sacrificial material on the support film, and a plurality of pillars. The pillars are at least partially embedded in the sacrificial material or formed within sacrificial material molds, and the sacrificial material is capable of being removed while leaving the pillars substantially intact. Methods of transferring pillars to a substrate using the pillar delivery films are disclosed. In order to make an insulated glass unit, the delivery films are laminated to a receptor such as a glass pane, and the support film and sacrificial material are removed to leave the pillars remaining on the glass.

A turbine engine component can include a surface comprising at least one edge and a coating disposed upon the surface that can extend to the edge. A spall break can be disposed along a line upon the surface adjacent the edge to prevent spallation of the coating from spreading from the edge onto the surface beyond the spall break. The spall break can comprise a discontinuity of the coating. A method of coating a turbine component can include preparing a substrate to receive a coating and selecting a fail location along the substrate for a coating. One or more coating can be applied to the substrate and a spall break can be incorporated into the one or more coatings. The spall break can comprise a line of discontinuity in the one or more coatings along the fail location.

The present disclosure relates to polymer coatings covalently attached to the surface of a substrate and the preparation of the polymer coatings, such as poly(N-(5-azidoacetamidylpentyl)acrylamide-co-acrylamide) (PAZAM), in the formation and manipulation of substrates, such as molecular arrays and flow cells. The present disclosure also relates to methods of preparing a substrate surface by using beads coated with a covalently attached polymer, such as PAZAM, and the method of determining a nucleotide sequence of a polynucleotide attached to a substrate surface described herein.

Embodiments of a article including include a substrate and a patterned coating are provided. In one or more embodiments, when a strain is applied to the article, the article exhibits a failure strain of 0.5% or greater. Patterned coating may include a particulate coating or may include a discontinuous coating. The patterned coating of some embodiments may cover about 20% to about 75% of the surface area of the substrate. Methods for forming such articles are also provided.

An ink composition for continuous deflected ink jet printing, liquid at ambient temperature is disclosed. One aspect is an ink composition comprising: a solvent including organic solvent compound(s), and optionally water, the solvent representing at least 20 % by weight of the total weight of the ink. Furthermore, there is at least one compound imparting conductivity to the ink composition, chosen from among the ionic liquids, the compound representing 0.2 % by weight to 4 % by weight of the total weight of the ink composition, preferably 0.5 to 3 % by weight of the total weight of the ink composition. Lastly, the ink composition includes less than 10 % by weight, preferably less than 5 % by weight, more preferably less than 1 % by weight, and most preferably 0 % by weight of water relative to the total weight of the ink composition.

One or more aspects of the disclosure pertain to an article including a film disposed on a glass substrate, which may be strengthened, where the interface between the film and the glass substrate is modified, such that the article has an improved average flexural strength, and the film retains key functional properties for its application. Some key functional properties of the film include optical, electrical and/or mechanical properties. The bridging of a crack from one of the film or the glass substrate into the other of the film or the glass substrate can be suppressed by inserting a nanoporous crack mitigating layer between the glass substrate and the film.

Non-aqueous ink composition for liquid ink jet printing including: a vehicle comprising one or more organic solvent(s) liquid at ambient temperature, or one or more organic compound(s) solid at ambient temperature and liquid at the projection temperature; one or more dye(s) and/or pigment(s); a binder, comprising at least one binding resin consisting of a copolymer of vinylidene chloride and of at least one other monomer, in solution at ambient temperature in the organic solvent(s) or in solution at the projection temperature in the organic compound(s). A method for marking substrates, supports or objects includes projection onto the substrates, supports or objects of the ink composition by a liquid ink jet printing technique. A substrate, support or object, particularly flexible substrate, is provided with a marking obtained by drying and/or absorption of the composition.

Provided are a strengthened glass panel for protecting a surface of a display device and a method for manufacturing the same. Here, the strengthened glass panel includes a strengthened glass layer, a laminate layer uniformly formed on the bottom surface of the strengthened glass layer, and a separation layer configured to cover the laminate layer, wherein the laminate layer is formed by transferring a transfer film. Accordingly, the strengthened glass panel for protecting a surface of a display device can have improved characteristics of neatly attaching the laminate layer to the surface of the display device without lifting or occurrence of air bubbles and easily detaching the laminate layer when a uniform laminate layer is formed on strengthened glass by means of a transfer film.

The present disclosure relates to a patterned structure, the structure comprising: i) a substrate, ii) a first layer on top of the substrate, comprising a filler material and a guiding material, wherein at least a top surface of the first layer comprises one or more zones of filler material and one or more zones of guiding material, and iii) a second layer on top of the first layer comprising a pattern of a first material, the pattern being either aligned or anti-aligned with the underlying one or more zones of guiding material; wherein the first material comprises a metal or a ceramic material and wherein the guiding material and the filler material either both comprise or both do not comprise the metal or ceramic material.

Embodiments of an article including a substrate and a patterned coating are provided. In one or more embodiments, when a strain is applied to the article, the article exhibits a failure strain of 0.5% or greater. Patterned coating may include a particulate coating or may include a discontinuous coating. The patterned coating of some embodiments may cover about 20% to about 75% of the surface area of the substrate. Methods for forming such articles are also provided.
