Process for enveloping fine droplets of dispersed liquids

Hydrophobic or hydrophilic liquids are encapsulated by dispersing one as droplets in the other each having added to it agents which combined to form an insoluble shell about the droplets. One agent is a high molecular polymer having two or more of the same or different liquids of functional groups selected from the hydroxyl, pyrrolidone, amino, carboxyl and acid anhydride groups and the other having any one functional group selected from the acid any one functional group selected from the acid chloride, sulfonyl chloride, aldehyde, hydroxyl methylol and amino groups. In one application for forming slender sticks of core material for writing purposes carbon black is mixed with castor oil and benzaldehyde is dissolved in the oil to form a first liquid. Polyvinyl alcohol is dissolved in hydrochloric acid to form a second liquid. The first liquid is dispersed as droplets in the second whereby the droplets are encased in an insoluble film. The stick are formed by compacting the capsules.

A CHIRAL RESOLUTION METHOD MIMICKING MAGNETIC BENEFICIATION AND THE MAGNETIC NANO-INHIBITORS FOR SELECTIVE ENRICHMENT

A core-shell nanocomposite is formed by co-assembly of an amphiphilic polymer and hydrophobically modified magnetic nanoparticles, with its core being a hydrophobically modified magnetic nanomaterial and its shell being the amphiphilic polymer, wherein hydrophilic segments in the amphiphilic polymer are located at an outermost layer of the shell.

Low Surface Energy Touch Screens, Coatings, and Methods

Substrates, surfaces, assemblies, kits, compositions, and methods are provided for forming touch screens and other appliance surfaces exhibiting good hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and abrasion resistance. Methods are provided for increasing a population density of hydroxyl groups on a touch surface of a touch screen substrate without affecting the compressive strength of the back surface. The treated touch surface of the substrate can then be coated with a coating that includes an organo-metalic and/or silane, for example, a fluorosilane such as a perfluoropolyether alkoxysilane. A substrate can retain its compressive resistance to breakage by impact applied to the touch surface while minimizing any decrease in compressive strength against impact against the touch surface. Examples of such substrates include touch screens for mobile and desktop electronic devices, components of 3D display devices, and components for electrowetting display devices.

Method for manufacturing electrically conductive adhesive film, electrically conductive adhesive film, and method for manufacturing connector

An anisotropic conductive film is capable of preventing a short circuit between terminals even though narrowing of the interval between connecting terminals advances. An electrically conductive support plate supports a base film having one surface with an adhesive layer. An array plate is disposed to face the adhesive layer and has through holes arranged in a pattern corresponding to the array pattern of electrically conductive particles. A spray sprays the electrically conductive particles together with a liquid while applying a voltage to the electrically conductive particles, in which the electrically conductive particles which are charged with an electrical charge are sprayed together with a liquid from the spray while applying a voltage between the spray and the support plate and the electrically conductive particles which have passed through the through holes of the array plate are arranged on the adhesive layer in the array pattern of the through holes.
