Abstract: The present invention provides compositions that are capable of being dispersed in a target medium. The compositions include characteristic use particles entrapped within a physical entrapment phase, wherein the physical entrapment phase is dispersible in the target medium. Accordingly, the compositions of the present invention physically prevent the agglomeration or self-association of the characteristic use particles. Also disclosed are processes for manufacturing compositions that are capable of being dispersed in a target medium.

Abstract: A system for continuously processing PTFE by irradiation and grinding includes a processing vessel having first and second horizontally adjacent agitators in first and second transversely adjacent vessel portions. The bottom of the vessel has a step between the portions whereat heated air is injected for agitating and grinding the PTFE.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of making delivery systems for active ingredients including hydrogenated jojoba and sunscreen actives. The recrystallization process of the present invention produces small particle size alloys from molten mixtures and recrystallized small particle size dispersions from high temperature solvent solutions. The invention further provides delivery systems for active ingredients such as sunscreen actives.

Abstract: The present invention provides ultraviolet radiation (UV)-curable compositions and a method for making a UV-curable composition comprising: mixing at least one wax, at least one radiation-polymerizable compound, and at least one inhibitor of polymerization; dissolving the wax in the radiation-polymerizable compound by heating to provide a mixture of radiation-polymerizable compound, wax and inhibitor; cooling said mixture to provide a dispersion of the wax in the radiation-polymerizable compound; and micronizing the dispersion to provide a UV-curable composition. The invention further provides a method for coating a substrate with a UV-curable coating, and a coating, paint, varnish or ink comprising a UV-curable composition. Manufactured articles formed using the coatings, paints, varnishes and inks comprising a UV-curable composition are also provided.
