Abstract: Provided is an aqueous coating composition with improved wet scrub resistance and freeze thaw stability, particularly substantially free of freeze-thaw additives. Also provided is an article prepared from the same.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the use of a coating composition comprising: —at least one polymer (ZW) comprising zwitterionic repeating units derived from at least one zwitterionic monomer (A), —at least one polymer (CA) different from polymer (ZW) comprising repeating units derived from at least one carboxylic acid and/or carboxylic anhydride containing monomer (B), and—at least one crosslinking agent (CL). The invention also pertains to the use of said coating composition (C) for making frost resistant a substrate and to articles coated with composition (C).

Abstract: Use of a coating composition for making a frost resistant substrate, the coating composition comprises at least one copolymer (ZW-CA) comprising: (a) repeating units (RZW) derived from at least one zwitterionic monomer, monomer (B), and (b) repeating units (RCA) derived from at least one monomer containing carboxylic acid and/or carboxylic anhydride, monomer (B), and at least one crosslinking agent (CL).

Abstract: A method for prompting traffic condition information, comprising: a server obtaining traffic condition information about a road network (101); a client determining a candidate driving route and sending to the server a traffic condition information request aiming at the candidate driving route, and the server receiving the traffic condition information request, extracting traffic condition information about the candidate driving route from the traffic condition information about the road network, and sending to the client the traffic condition information about the candidate driving route; alternatively, the server actively sending to the client the traffic condition information about the road network (102); and the client displaying the traffic condition information provided by the server (103).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a colloidal (meth)acrylic polymer emulsion, wherein the (meth)acrylic polymer has a weight average molecular weight of 3000 to 8000 daltons, Tg of 110 to 140° C. and an acid value of 150 to 240 mgKOH/g. The present invention also provide a water-based hot stamping primer coating which comprises the colloidal (meth)acrylic polymer emulsion. The present invention further provides a hot stamping film comprising a hot stamping primer formed from the water-based hot stamping primer coating.

Abstract: A method for updating electronic business cards (VCards). A receiving terminal which is to synchronize a VCard with a sending terminal is determined. It is determined whether there is an update of a VCard in the sending terminal. If there is an update, the sending terminal sends an updated VCard to the receiving terminal or instructs a third party device to send the updated VCard to the receiving terminal. The receiving terminal receives the updated VCard, and updates a VCard stored in the receiving terminal using the updated VCard.
