The polypyrrole encapsulated graphene corrosion inhibitor container includes graphene oxide and a polyvinylo layer encapsulated on the surface of the graphene oxide. The invention is based on a polymerization reaction by mixing a polypyrrole acid solution, a graphene oxide dispersion, and an initiator to obtain a polypyrrole encapsulated graphene corrosion inhibitor container. The polypyrrole encapsulated graphene corrosion inhibitor container regulates the release rate of the corrosion inhibitor by wrapping the polypyrrole around the graphene oxide so that it is released rapidly in alkaline solutions and at a slower rate in neutral media.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a process to integrate sintered components in a laminate substrate. The disclosed process starts with providing a precursor substrate, which includes a substrate body having an opening through the substrate body, and a first foil layer. Herein, the first foil layer is formed underneath the substrate body, so as to fully cover a bottom of the opening. Next, a sinterable base material is applied into the opening and over the first foil layer, and then sintered at a first sintering temperature to create a sintered base component. A sinterable contact material is applied over the sintered base component, and then sintered at a second sintering temperature to create a sintered contact film. The sintered base component is confined within the opening by the substrate body on sides, by the first foil layer on bottom, and by the sintered contact film on top.

Abstract: In a method, a resist material is dispensed through a tube of a nozzle of a resist pump system on a wafer. The tube extends from a top to a bottom of the nozzle and has upper, lower, and middle segments. When not dispensing, the resist material is retracted from the lower and the middle segments, and maintained in the upper segment of the tube. When retracting, a first solvent is flown through a tip of the nozzle at the bottom of the nozzle to fill the lower segment of the tube with the first solvent and to produce a gap in the middle segment of the tube between the resist material and the first solvent. The middle segment includes resist material residues on an inner surface wall of the tube and vapor of the first solvent. The vapor of the first solvent prevents the resist material residues from drying.
