  • Patent number: 6743212
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tampon having an absorbent structure and a multilayered cover substantially enclosing the absorbent structure. The cover has an outer layer capable of retaining liquid and an inner layer disposed between the outer layer and the absorbent structure. The inner layer creates a controlled interruption of fluid flow between the outer layer and the absorbent structure. This interruption allows the outer layer retains sufficient liquid to minimize vaginal wall drying prior to saturation of the absorbent structure.

  • Patent number: 4826430
    Abstract: The adhesive strength of alumina brackets to acrylic adhesive cements is enhanced by forming an essentially silica coating on the bonding surface of the bracket by the steps of coating said surface with an organosilicon compound such as a silane and then pyrolyzing the organosilicon coating to volatilize the organic components thereof to thereby leave an essentially silica coating.
