Patent number: 10064792Abstract: A hybrid coating material and process for pigments and other powders, for example cosmetic powders employs an organometallate, for example a titanate, and a functionalized silicon compound, for example a trialkoxysilane or a functionalized polysiloxane, which covalently bond to each other and to the substrate powder. The coated powders can exhibit excellent hydrophobicity coupled with lipophilicity. Employment of fluorinated silicon compounds may provide hydrophobicity and lipophobicity. Examples show good dispersibility of coated pigments in aqueous, oil and silicone fluids.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2007Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: KOBO PRODUCTS INC.Inventors: David Schlossman, Yun Shao

Patent number: 9308160Abstract: A wax-resin composite is made by melting thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin, optionally with an antioxidant. The melted thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin and waxes are blended at a temperature sufficient to melt the waxes. After blending and melting, the blended thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin and waxes are allowed to solidify. Solidification is followed by post-processing the wax-resin composite mixture to form slabs, pastilles, flakes or other forms. A method for producing a wax-resin composite comprises at least partially solvating a thermoplastic resin in a solvent to form a resin-solvent blend. This may be done at a heat of 80-85° C. A composition of molten wax is blended with the resin-solvent blend. The resin-solvent blend and a molten wax are blended to form a wax-resin blend. This is followed by removing the solvent from said wax-resin blend.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2014Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: KOBO PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: David Schlossman, Edward Bartholomey, Yun Shao
