  • Patent number: 10131170
    Abstract: The present invention aims principally to provide a protective layer transfer sheet that can prevent occurrence of fusion between a receiving layer and a transfer layer and occurrence of peeling traces when the transfer layer is peeled from the receiving layer, even in the case that thermal energy applied on transfer of the transfer layer is increased and can obtain a high quality printed article and to provide a protective layer transfer sheet that can impart extremely good scratch resistance to the surface of a printed article. The protective layer transfer sheet includes a substrate, and a transfer layer provided on a surface of the substrate, and the transfer layer includes a binder resin and one or more substances selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid esters, olefin-maleic acid copolymers, and amino polyether-modified silicone oils.

  • Patent number: 9278570
    Abstract: Provided is a protective layer transfer sheet which includes a protective layer, whereby it becomes possible to form an image on the protective layer set on a print without causing the abnormal transfer of a dye layer, the breakage of the dye layer and the like, and it also becomes possible to achieve a satisfactory level of plasticizer resistance of the print. The protective layer transfer sheet including a substrate and a protective layer peelably formed on the substrate, wherein the protective layer includes one or both of a cellulose ester having a number average molecular weight of not less than 15000 and not more than 30000 and a vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer having a number average molecular weight of not less than 15000 and not more than 30000, and a cellulose ester having a number average molecular weight of not more than 7000.

  • Patent number: 5941848
    Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for introducing a reconstituted drug in a drug vial into a medical liquid while venting any gas within the vial to the atmosphere. The assembly includes a receptacle disposed in the middle of a fluid conduit for the medical fluid and which has an upper chamber and lower chamber. The assembly also has a cannula assembly which mounts upon and pierces a septum of the receptacle and also a pierceable stopper of the drug vial. The cannula assembly includes a pair of coaxial cannulas which pierce the stopper of the drug vial and establish a first flow path from the upper chamber to the drug vial and a second flow path from the drug vial to the lower chamber. The cannula assemble also includes a cannula that forms a vent passage in fluid communication with an upper portion of the vial, upon the piercing of the drug vial, with an end of the vent passage communicating with the atmosphere.
