Since all methods of applying a drug liquid to a tip portion of a microneedle are application of the drug liquid in an open system, evaporation of the solvent from the drug liquid is unavoidable, such that the concentration of the drug liquid changes easily, and a large amount of the drug liquid is necessary. The invention provides a method of applying a drug to a pin-frog-shaped microneedle by using a small amount of the solution and without variation of the concentration of the drug liquid. A member having plural grooves is produced, and one end thereof is immersed in a drug liquid tank to fill the grooves with the drug liquid. The drug can be uniformly applied to a tip portion of the microneedle by setting the pin-frog-shaped microneedle to pass through the drug liquid in the grooves.

Nanotube dispersants and dispersant free nanotube films therefrom

Номер: US20140083752A1

A degradable polymeric nanotube (NT) dispersant comprises a multiplicity of NT associative groups that are connected to a polymer backbone by a linking group where there are cleavable groups within the polymer backbone and/or the linking groups such that on a directed change of conditions, bond breaking of the cleavable groups results in residues from the degradable polymeric NT dispersant in a manner where the associative groups are uncoupled from other associative groups, rendering the associative groups monomelic in nature. The degradable polymeric nanotube (NT) dispersant can be combined with carbon NTs to form a NT dispersion that can be deposited to form a NT film, or other structure, by air brushing, electrostatic spraying, ultrasonic spraying, ink-jet printing, roll-to-roll coating, or dip coating. The deposition can render a NT film that is of a uniform thickness or is patterned with various thicknesses. Upon deposition of the film, the degradable polymeric nanotube (NT) dispersant can be cleaved and the cleavage residues removed from the film to yield a film where contact between NTs is unencumbered by dispersants, resulting in highly conductive NT films.

ANTISLIP FLEXIBLE MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR THEIR MAKING AND USE

Номер: US20220008954A2

A method for forming an antislip material. A flexible thermoplastic carrier is provided. A hot release surface is provided. Provided is a first layer of discrete thermoplastic particles, sitting on the hot release surface. The discrete particles are above their softening temperatures, providing in the first layer a tackiness. The method includes contacting the carrier with the tacky first layer for sticking the first layer to the carrier, and thereafter removing the carrier, and therewith the tacky first layer stuck to the carrier, from the release surface. Thereby the carrier is provided with a hot, preferably discontinuous and/or elastomeric antislip coating. With a heat energy of the hot coating a bond is formed between the carrier and the coating. The removing of the carrier includes pulling the carrier out of the contact with a pulling-out force. The temperature of the hot release surface is above the melting temperature of the carrier. The carrier would be spoiled, if heated completely to the temperature of the release surface and simultaneously pulled with the pulling-out force. Therefore the contacting time is kept shorter than a minimum time required by a heat of the hot release surface for spoiling the carrier. Flat-topped roughening projections can be included in the antislip coating. 1. A method for forming an antislip flexible material , comprising:providing a flexible carrier having a front surface, the provided carrier at least partly including a thermoplastic first polymer, the carrier having at the providing a temperature sufficiently low to keep the first polymer from melting or softening;providing a hot release surface of a first temperature;providing a first layer of discrete particles including a thermoplastic second polymer, sitting on the hot release surface and projecting from the hot release surface to corresponding terminal ends, in the provided first layer the discrete particles being at least partly of or above a second temperature, the ...

Method of Fabricating Nano-Silver Paste Having High Bonding strength

Номер: US20180009998A1
Принадлежит: National Cheng Kung University NCKU

A method is provided to make a nano-silver paste. An organic acid is used as a protective agent. Silver nitrate is used as a source of silver ions to reduce silver nanoparticles on a surface protected by the organic acid. The particle size of the silver nanoparticle is 45 nanometers. In the other hand, a silver precursor of organic metal is synthesized. The organic metal is cracked at 200 celsius degrees (° C.) to fill pores left during sintering. After mixing the silver nanoparticle, the silver precursor and the solvent, the nano-silver paste is obtained. After being heated at 250° C. for 30 minutes, the nano-silver paste has a resistance of (3.09±0.61)×10 −5 Ω·cm. By being heated at 250° C. and applied with a pressure of 10 MPa to be hot-pressed for 30 minutes for joining copper to copper, the nano-silver paste obtains a bonding strength reaching 36 MPa.
