  • Methods and systems for reducing adhesive strength and associated pull-off stresses
    Patent number: 12215253
    Abstract: Methods and systems for adhesively bonding a first substrate to a second substrate to reduce pull-off stress during separation of the first and second substrates include applying a first adhesive to a first bonding region of a bonding area of the first substrate, applying a second adhesive, which has an adhesive strength that is lower than an adhesive strength of the first adhesive, to a second bonding region of the bonding area of the first substrate, pressing the first and second substrates against each other to form an adhesive bondline, and curing the first and second adhesives for a predetermined period of time to form a cured adhesive bondline between the first and second substrates.
    Type: Grant

  • AQUEOUS DISPERSIONS INCLUDING POLYMER PARTICLES
    Publication number: 20240298634
    Abstract: Suspensions include an aqueous medium and a plurality of particles. The particles include polymeric carrier material dispersed throughout the particle and active ingredient dispersed throughout the particle. The polymeric carrier material can be biodegradable, and one example is a cellulose ester. Exemplary active ingredients include an insecticide, a fungicide, and a pesticide. In some instances, the plurality of particles have an average diameter of 25 nm to 5 ?m. Exemplary suspensions may be applied to plant surfaces.

  • Cellulose acetate aerogels
    Patent number: 11827722
    Abstract: Mechanically strong, biodegradable and reusable aerogels are disclosed, which can be made with a cross-linked cellulose ester, and which exhibit a low density and high porosity. The aerogels disclosed herein may be used as sorbent materials and can be modified with a hydrophobic and/or oleophilic agent.
