Abstract: Certain embodiments described herein are directed to separation systems and methods effective to separate two or more solvents in a solvent mixture. In certain examples, a system effective to separate two or more azeotrope forming solvents is provided. In some embodiments, the system can be effective to remove at least about 95% of one of the solvents from the solvent mixture.

Abstract: A solar control film which includes an adhesive layer for adhering the solar control film to a substrate, a metallized layer and a scratch resistant layer containing dispersed carbon black particles wherein the metallized layer is between the adhesive layer for adhering to a substrate and the scratch resistant layer. The solar control film can be prepared by a process which involves mixing a composition comprised of carbon black in particulate form dispersed in a nitrocellulose resin with a polymer forming material to form a coating composition and applying the coating composition to a component of a solar control film whereby the coating composition forms a scratch resistant layer containing dispersed carbon black particles.

Abstract: Waterborne nitrocellulose compositions comprising nitrocellulose, at least one active solvent for the nitrocellulose, a plasticizer, water and an anionic ammonium-containing surfactant which decomposes upon heating. The waterborne nitrocellulose compositions are useful as coating compositions for printed metal foils and as such exhibit advantageous properties including water resistance, surface mar resistance, a low coefficient of friction, high gloss and a high degree of clarity. The nitrocellulose compositions are also characterized by rewet capability and rapid forced drying.
