Abstract: The present invention is directed to an integrated process and system for cosmetic vehicle repair. The invention provides a process and a system to produce repair formulas, repair estimates, and repair scheduling. The present invention is particularly directed to a process and a system for repairing coating defect of a vehicle.

Abstract: This invention relates to novel compositions comprising a protective polymer layer and a UV blocking agent. This is used in the fabrication of electronic devices using thick film pastes. The present invention is also an electronic device fabrication process using the compositions. The protective polymer layer is fabricated from materials, which are insoluble after irradiation in the ester-type solvents contained in the thick film paste. By appropriate selection of protective film polymers, the protective film can be compatible with the thick film paste and can be further used to shield portions of the thick film paste from UV irradiation.

Abstract: Peptide-based carbon nanotube hair colorants are described. The hair colorants are prepared by coupling hair-binding peptides to the surface of chemically functionalized carbon nanotubes. Hair colorant and cosmetic compositions comprising the peptide-based carbon nanotube colorants are also described.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a portable kit that includes a tray having disposed therein at least two compartments containing reactive components of a coating composition, the compartments being sealed with a single cover or wherein each said compartment is sealed with a discreet cover; and a spatula positioned across an exposed face of said tray. The portable kit is suitable for use in repairing minor automotive coating defects, such as chipped, scratched, cracked, delaminated, etched and marred areas on automotive bodies.

Abstract: The invention provides new hair colorant and cosmetic compositions comprising carbon nanotubes that have either been chemically functionalized or physically modified to increase their affinity for hair.

Abstract: The invention provides new ink jet ink compositions comprising chemically functionalized or physically modified, singly dispersed carbon nanotubes. The ink jet ink compositions are suitable for use in conventional ink jet printing and may be used in printing applications on paper or textile fabrics, or to prepare conductive or semiconductive patterns of carbon nanotubes for electronic applications.

Abstract: Associated with a charged dispersant and preferably biopolymers, carbon nanotubes are aligned on a substrate by deposition onto the substrate directly from solution. Aligned carbon nanotubes polarize electromagnetic radiation and serve as an optical polarizer useful in a variety of applications.
