  • Patent number: 11733821
    Abstract: A touch panel and a touch display are disclosed. The touch panel mainly comprises a light transmissive substrate and two sensing units. The two sensing units are disposed oppositely through the light transmissive substrate. A mesh width of a metal mesh in the two sensing units is large, which can increase a variation of capacitance value and improve the touch sensitivity. In addition, an angle between metal lines with sensing function is configured in a random manner under a certain condition to reduce an area of nodes, thus a rounding effect at the nodes can be effectively reduced or eliminated. The metal meshes of the two sensing units disposed oppositely are staggered with a non-conductive node-free pattern to form a staggered pattern with irregular polygons, so that no interference fringes would be generated when the touch panel is used together with display panels of various mainstream sizes.

  • Publication number: 20230094350
    Abstract: A porous polymer has a pore volume of 0.3 to 2.5 cm3/g and comprises a pore having a first pore diameter and a pore having a second pore diameter. A ratio of pore volume of the pore having a first pore diameter to pore volume of the pore having a second pore diameter is 1 to 10:1. The porous polymer is obtained by self-polymerization or copolymerization of at least one of the phosphorus ligands, and phosphorous content of the porous polymer is 1 to 5 mmol/g. The porous polymer-nickel catalyst made of the porous polymer has a significant increase in water resistance, which may reduce the consumption of phosphorus ligands, eliminating the steps of removing water from raw materials and reaction system water control, which greatly saves process equipment investment. When used in the preparation of adiponitrile from butadiene, it has high catalytic activity, high reaction selectivity, and high linearity.
