  • Publication number: 20210163776
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a coating composition comprising a fluoropolymer and a dopamine derivative. Further, the present invention relates to a process for coating a substrate, comprising the steps of (a) providing a coating composition comprising a fluoropolymer, a dopamine derivative and a solvent; (b) locating the coating composition on a substrate; (c) heating the coated substrate to remove the solvent; and (d) optionally pressing the heated coated substrate against another material surface to bond these to each other. The present coating composition allows the bonding of fluoropolymers through a process that eliminates the need for mechanical keying and hazardous or costly etching processes.

  • Patent number: 10409634
    Abstract: Techniques for surfacing task-related applications in a heterogeneous tab environment are described. In at least some implementations, a task group is created based on an implicit association between source content from a source application and target content from a target application based on a request to launch the target application from the source application. According to various implementations, the heterogeneous tab environment presents the task group and a trigger event is defined based on the task group. Detecting the trigger event causes surfacing of the task group in the tab environment.

  • Patent number: 10220528
    Abstract: Scissors, especially surgical scissors, having first and second elongate members each having a handle portion and a blade portion and being connected by a pivot between the handle portions and the blade portions for relative pivotal movement generally in a cutting plane during a cutting stroke. At least one of the handle portions supports a channel member having a length that extends toward, embraces and extends beyond the handle portion of the other elongate member to restrain movement of the handle portions out of the cutting plane and thus to resist relative lateral movement of the blade portions away from each other during the cutting stroke. The scissors are robust and are able to cleanly, effectively and accurately cut tough or slippery items which might otherwise cause the blades to splay away from each other.

  • Patent number: 10216370
    Abstract: Techniques for exposing tabs in system task switchers are described herein. In one or more implementations, input is received to initiate a switch between different applications executed in a multi-application computing environment. In response, a system task switcher is launched to facilitate selection of and switching between the different applications. representations of the different applications are exposed via a user interface for the system task switcher. In the system task switcher configured to include functionality accessible via the system task switcher to exposed representations of individual tabs open in applications having tabbed user interfaces. Responsive to a selection of a particular application via the system task switcher, a switch occurs to the particular application in the multi-application computing environment. If a particular tab is selected, the switch occurs to expose the application UI with the selected tab being presented as the active/top tab with focus in the application UI.
