  • Publication number: 20190125882
    Abstract: Isatoic anhydride derivatives having an N-substituent which includes a quaternary ammonium group are useful for labeling and/or functionalizing a target material and/or for coupling materials together. The isatoic anhydride derivatives of the present disclosure can be advantageously water soluble, easily prepared and purified. Isatoic anhydride derivatives useful in the present disclosure preferably have at least one chemically reactive group or at least one binding group or at least one detectable label. Anthranilate derivatives made from the isatoic anhydrides derivatives or otherwise and kits including the isatoic anhydride derivatives are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 4772347
    Abstract: A method of making a filamentary structure comprising a spiral thermoplastic core filament disposed within a thermoplastic sheath component is provided. The method involves extruding together from an extrusion die filaments forming the core filament and the sheath component, with the core filament being extruded at a faster rate than the sheath component which causes the core filament to spiral, and cooling the extrudates to form a unitary structure. A plurality of the filamentary structures may be extruded side-by-side so that their sheath components are joined together to form a fabric structure.

  • Patent number: 4384022
    Abstract: A filamentary structure comprises a spiral thermoplastic core filament disposed within a thermoplastic sheath component, consisting either of a tube or of at least three thermoplastic filaments, the sheath component being joined to the successive turns of the spiral core filament. The spiral core filament and the sheath component may comprise the same or different thermoplastic polymers, suitable polymers being polyamides, polyesters and polyolefins.The core filament and the sheath component may be extruded together from a spinning jet, and a plurality of the filamentary structures may be extruded side-by-side so that their sheath components are joined together to form a fabric structure.
