Принадлежит: Sigma Labs Inc

Functionalized multilayer structures are manufactured by a process whereby a substrate material is treated with a reactive-gas plasma to form an activated layer on the surface thereof, and then by depositing a liquid functional monomer on the activated layer to form a self-assembled functional layer. Any excess liquid monomer must be allowed to re-evaporate in order to obtain optimal functionality on the surface of the resulting structure. The deposition of the liquid layer is preferably carried out with high kinetic energy to ensure complete penetration of the monomer throughout the body of the substrate. For particular applications, prior to formation of the reactive layer the substrate may be coated with a high glass-transition temperature polymer or a metallic layer.

The fabric is produced by melt spinning an amorphous crystallizable polymer to form two components having different levels of crystallinity. During spinning, a first component of the polymer is exposed to conditions that result in stress-induced crystallization such that the first polymer component is in a semi-crystalline state and serves as the matrix or strength component of the fabric. The second polymer component is not subjected to stress induced crystallization and thus remains in a substantially amorphous state which bonds well at relatively low temperatures. In a bonding step, the fabric is heated to soften and fuse the binder component.

A method for forming a biodegradable aliphatic-aromatic copolyester suitable for use in fibers is provided. In one embodiment, for example, an aliphatic-aromatic copolyester is melt blended with an alcohol to initiate an alcoholysis reaction that results in a copolyester having one or more hydroxyalkyl or alkyl terminal groups. By selectively controlling the alcoholysis conditions (e.g., alcohol and copolymer concentrations, catalysts, temperature, etc.), a modified aliphatic-aromatic copolyester may be achieved that has a molecular weight lower than the starting aliphatic-aromatic polymer. Such lower molecular weight polymers also have the combination of a higher melt flow index and lower apparent viscosity, which is useful in a wide variety of fiber forming applications, such as in the meltblowing of nonwoven webs.

A process for the manufacture of this multi-ply fibrous product includes (a) providing at least two fibrous webs, (c) applying an aqueous adhesive composition including an adhesive component and a water-soluble, dermatologically acceptable acid, and optionally the corresponding salt thereof, to at least one side of at least one fibrous web, d) superimposing at least two webs such that the aqueous adhesive composition is located between at least two superimposed webs, and e) bonding at least two webs together. 1. A multi-ply fibrous product comprising at least two fibrous plies , which is preferably selected from(a) a multi-ply nonwoven product comprising at least two nonwoven plies which plies preferably comprise cellulosic fibres,(b) a tissue paper product comprising at least two tissue paper plies, and(c) a hybrid thereof comprising at least one tissue paper ply and at least one nonwoven ply preferably comprising cellulosic fibers,wherein said at least two plies are bonded to each other by means of an aqueous adhesive composition comprising an adhesive component and a dermatologically acceptable acid, and optionally a salt thereof.2. The multi-ply fibrous product as set forth in item 1 , wherein said acid and optionally the salt thereof are provided in such an amount that the pH of the multi-ply fibrous product measured according to ISO 6588-1:2012(E) is in the range of from 3.5 to 7 , preferably 4.0 to 6.9 , more preferably 4.3 to 6.4 , even more preferably 4.5 to 6.2 , e.g. 4.8 to 6.0.3. The multi-ply fibrous product as set forth in item 1 ...

To provide a recording medium in which the ink absorbability and the color development properties of an image to be obtained are high and in which cracking in an ink receiving layer is sufficiently suppressed. 1. A recording medium comprising:a base material; andan ink receiving layer containing inorganic particles and a binder,wherein the inorganic particles have an organosilicon structure havinga quaternary ammonium group,an imino group or a substituted imino group, anda hydroxyl group.2. The recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the organosilicon structure has the quaternary ammonium group claim 1 , the imino group or the substituted imino group claim 1 , and the hydroxyl group claim 1 , from a side close to the inorganic particles claim 1 ,in an order of the imino group or the substituted imino group, the hydroxyl group, and the quaternary ammonium group orin an order of the hydroxyl group, the imino group or the substituted imino group, and the quaternary ammonium group. The present invention relates to a recording medium and a silane coupling agent.A recording medium having an ink receiving layer containing inorganic particles has been used because the ink absorbability and the color development properties of an image to be obtained are high. Such a recording medium is obtained by applying a coating liquid for ink receiving layer, in which inorganic particles are dispersed, to a base material. However, unless the dispersion stability of the inorganic particles in the coating liquid for ink receiving layer is sufficient, cracking has occurred in the surface in the formation of the ink receiving layer or, the ink absorbability and the color development properties of an image to be obtained have been lowered due to non-uniform dispersion of the inorganic particles in the ink receiving layer in some cases.Then, an examination on a dispersant capable of stably dispersing inorganic particles in a coating liquid has been performed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open ...
