The adhesives are produced by (a) preparing a solution comprising (1) a polyelectrolyte, wherein the polyelectrolyte comprises a polyanion or polycation but not a combination thereof, the polyeletrolyte comprises at least one crosslinking group, and (2) a sufficient amount of a complimentary counterion to produce a simple adhesive coacervate; and (b) crosslinking the simple adhesive coacervate to produce the adhesive. The adhesives have numerous medical and non-medical applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2011Publication date: July 12, 2012Applicant: UNIVERSITY OF UTAH RESEARCH FOUNDATIONInventor: Russell J.

Publication number: 20120157569Abstract: Provided is a polypropylene carbonate (hereinafter, PPC) paint composition, and more particularly, a pre-coated metal (PCM) paint composition for coil coating, which is mainly applied to cases for home appliances requiring high hardness, such as cases of a refrigerator. The composition can be used to provide a PCM paint, which has very low smoke density at the time of burning and emits remarkably low amounts of combustion gas and poisonous gas due to combustion at the time of firing, as compared with the existing laminate steel plate and a high-gloss film. In addition, the composition exhibits excellent adhesion to metal materials and excellent durability so that it can be usefully used for a PCM print steel plate applied to home appliances.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2011Publication date: June 21, 2012Applicant: SK INNOVATION CO., LTD.Inventors: SeungGweon Hong, JaeYoung Park, HyeLim Kim, KwangJin Chung, MyungAhn Ok
