Abstract: The present disclosure provides a fabric laminate. In an embodiment, the fabric laminate includes a fabric sheet, a coating layer, and a tie layer. The fabric sheet is composed of propylene-based polymer fibers. The coating layer is composed of one or more ethylene-based polymers. The tie layer is located between the fabric sheet and the coating layer. The tie layer is composed of at least 50 wt % of a crystalline block composite (CBC) and an optional blend component. The CBC includes (i) an isotactic crystalline propylene homopolymer (iPP); (ii) an ethylene/propylene copolymer; and (iii) a diblock with the formula (EP)-(iPP). The CBC has a block composite index (CBCI) from 0.1 to 1.0. The fabric laminate has a peel force from 20 N/15 mm to 40 N/15 mm.

Abstract: The invention provides a variety of novel devices, systems, and methods of utilizing mixed-ionic-electronic conductor (MIEC) materials adapted to function with an applied current or potential. The materials, as part of a circuit, are placed in contact with a part of a human or nonhuman animal body. A sodium selective membrane system utilizing the MIEC is also described.

Abstract: Cyclic vinylogous amides of Formula I are disclosed The compounds are useful for treating diseases that arise from inappropriate activity of proteins containing an acetyl-lysine. The compositions comprise a genus of cyclic vinylogous amides that are inhibitors of bromodomain.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of suppressing the transcriptional expression of one or more genes by methylating the chromatin histone proteins of the one or more genes. Specifically, a viral SET domain histone lysine mehtyltransferase (vSET or vSET-like protein) methylates lysine 27 of a gene's histone protein 3 (H3-K27) thereby suppressing the transcription of the gene.

Abstract: A fabric sleeve for protecting elongate members against at least one of EMI, RFI or ESD and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a wall extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite ends. The wall is formed from a plurality of filaments interlaced with one another, with at least one of the filaments being provided as a continuous strand of conductive wire and at least some of the filaments being provided as heat-fusible nonconductive filaments. The heat-fusible nonconductive filaments abut the continuous strand of conductive wire at a plurality of bond joints. The continuous strand of conductive wire is at least partially embedded in bonded, fixed attachment with the heat-fusible nonconductive filaments at the bond joints.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to compounds and compositions comprising one or more indole analogs. These compounds are useful for treating diseases associated with NF-kB and p53 activity, such as cancer and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract: Epoxy adhesive compositions contain a heat-activatable catalyst. The heat-activatable catalyst includes a tertiary amine catalyst and a novolac resin that has a weight average molecular weight of at least 3000.

Abstract: A self-wrapping textile sleeve that is abrasion, arc and water resistant and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges extending in a lengthwise direction along a central longitudinal axis of the sleeve between opposite ends. The opposite edges overlap one another to form an inner tubular cavity. The wall has warp yarns extending in the lengthwise direction generally parallel to the central longitudinal axis and weft yarns extending generally transversely to the longitudinal axis between the opposite edges. The warp and weft yarns include expanded PTFE yarns, and the weft yarns further include heat-settable thermoplastic yarns. The heat-settable polymeric yarns impart a bias on the wall to bring the opposite edges into their overlapping relation.

Abstract: A textile sleeve constructed in accordance with one aspect of the invention provides fire protection to an oil or fuel fluid conveying conduit and meets the AS1055 Class A protection requirements at a zero flow rate and the AS1055 Class B protection requirements at a zero flow rate. The textile sleeve includes a single tubular textile wall formed from at least one of the group consisting of basalt, silica, ceramic and fiberglass yarn. The wall has an outer surface and an inner surface bounding a cavity sized for receipt of the fluid conveying conduit. A coating of silicone rubber is adhered to the outer surface of the wall, and a flame retardant additive is mixed with the silicone rubber to form a coating composition. The flame retardant additive is selected from the group consisting of at least one of zinc borate, magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide.
