Abstract: The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition that includes at least one isothiazolin-3-one and at least one alkyl amine containing a primary, secondary or tertiary amine functional group and having an average chain length of between eight and eighteen carbons per molecule of the alkyl amine.

Abstract: Preservative compositions are provided with improved stability. The preservative compositions comprise a combination of an amphoteric compound and 3-iodo-2-propynyl butyl carbamate (IPBC). In a particular embodiment, the compositions comprise a combination of a betaine compound and 3-iodo-2-propynyl butyl carbamate. The compositions in some embodiments have surprising stability. The preservative composition can be used in personal care products, household products, industrial products and materials. The compositions can be used in a variety of methods for the treatment of surfaces such as cellulosic surfaces, such as wood surfaces. The compositions can be used in one embodiment to provide stain resistance to wood.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and system for electronic device packaging having stacked dice are disclosed herein. A first die has a through silicon via formed therethrough. A second die is landed on the through silicon via of the first die. A mount having a lead is coupled to the through silicon via of the first die.

Abstract: A mid-frame for use in an imaging apparatus includes an undulating surface extending in an undulation direction. At least one elongated slot can be formed in the mid-frame, wherein a direction of elongation of the elongated slot is substantially the same direction as the undulation direction.
