Publication number: 20080264672Abstract: A process for preparing a photoimprinted film, a composition for forming a photoimprinted film and a photoimprinted film comprising a dielectric constant of less than about 3.5. The method includes providing a material film having a composition including at least one silica source capable of being sol-gel processed, at least one photoactive compound and at least one solvent; and water. The composition contains less than about 0.1% by weight of an added acid. A mold having mold features is provided. The mold is positioned in sufficient contact with the material film to allow the material to contact at least a portion of the mold features. The material film is then exposed to a radiation source and the film is cured to form a solidified material film. The mold is separated from the solidified material, wherein the material includes film features corresponding to the mold features.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2007Publication date: October 30, 2008Applicant: AIR PRODUCTS AND CHEMICALS, INC.Inventors: Thomas John Markley, Scott Jeffrey Weigel, Christine Peck Kretz

Patent number: 6133415Abstract: Polyurethane prepolymer which can be converted into a final product by reaction with a curative or chain extending agent is made by reacting polyisocyanate with polyol in the presence of an amount of an aliphatic hydrocarbon which is a solvent for the polyisocyanate but a non-solvent for the prepolymer. In order to minimize the formation of unwanted oligomers the polyisocyanate is present in stoichiometric excess with respect to the polyol and the amount of hydrocarbon solvent present in the reaction mixture is limited so that a single liquid phase is present in the mixture during most of the synthesis. Solvent containing dissolved isocyanate is then removed from the prepolymer by liquid phase separation. A portion of the solvent can be distilled from this isocyanate solution for use in liquid--liquid extraction of residual isocyanate from the prepolymer, and the remaining solution of isocyanate in hydrocarbon solvent can be used in prepolymer synthesis.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 1999Date of Patent: October 17, 2000Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: Thomas John Markley, Lloyd Mahlon Robeson
