Abstract: A disinfectant material may be used to kill bacteria, viruses, mold and fungal contaminants while minimizing toxic risks to humans. The disinfectant material may be effective in killing pathogens and more on numerous types of surfaces including on the skin of mammals. Exemplary embodiments include a copper halogen, such as copper iodide. Exemplary materials may also include a pH stabilizer, a preservative, humectants, or other constituents. Exemplary disinfectant materials may be used as a liquid or a gel, applied via a wipe, sprayed or in other forms.

Abstract: An article of manufacture includes a liquid tight container that holds a disinfecting material. A disinfecting material includes a liquid gel material. The disinfecting material is dispensable from the container through a manual dispenser. The material is usable to apply a antimicrobial coating on surfaces, including the external surfaces of mammals such as human skin.

Abstract: An article of manufacture includes a liquid tight container that holds a disinfecting solution. The disinfecting solution is dispensed from the container via an atomizing sprayer. The solution is usable to apply a film of the solution on surfaces. The film applied by the atomizing sprayer is operative to destroy bacterial and fungal organisms on the surfaces at the time of initial application and organisms that later come in contact with the film on the surface.

Abstract: A transparent laminate comprises an optically clear, cured coating layer including abrasion-resistant nanoparticles, and one or more monomers and/or one or more oligomers that are reacted in the presence of an ultraviolet light photoinitiator. The coating layer also contains a surface portion rich in hydrophilic surfactant so that the coating layer when residing on a transparent substrate forms a laminate having good abrasion resistant properties as well as good anti-fog properties.

Abstract: A laminate composition includes a UV curable acrylate adhered to an acrylated silane primer having at least one terminal halogen group with the silane primer being adhered to a siliceous surface. Strong chemical bonds are formed between the primer and the siliceous surface as well as between the primer and the UV curable coating.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a polyamide composition comprising from about 50 to 90% by weight of a polyamide, from about 10 to 40% by weight of a nitrile rubber, and from about 5 to 50% by weight of a reactive rubber which contains groups which are reactive with the end groups of the polyamide. The composition preferably contains about 2 to 20% by weight of a plasticizer for nylon, and can optionally contain from about 0 to 10% by weight of a polyamide chain extender.The present invention also includes gas permeation resistant articles including articles resistant to chlorofluorohydrocarbon permeation. Articles of particular interest include extruded hose and tubing which contain at least one layer made of the above described composition. It has been discovered that the composition of the invention resists chlorofluorohydrocarbon permeation and at the same time can provide the flexibility needed for use in various hose and tubing applications.
