  • Patent number: 11286361
    Abstract: Provided are a support with an antibacterial layer, which exhibits excellent followability with respect to a curved surface and in which peeling does not easily occur between a support and an antibacterial layer even though the support with an antibacterial layer is bonded to a curved surface, and a laminate including the support with an antibacterial layer. The support with an antibacterial layer of the present invention includes a support and an antibacterial layer disposed in at least a portion on the support, in which the support contains a urethane resin, and the antibacterial layer contains a hydrophilic polymer and an antibacterial agent.

  • Publication number: 20200353115
    Abstract: A medical instrument of the present invention includes a hydrophilic processed portion on at least a portion of an outer surface of the instrument. The hydrophilic processed portion contains a hydrophilic polymer and an antibacterial agent, and a water contact angle of a surface of the hydrophilic processed portion is equal to or smaller than 30°. Provided that a silver content per unit area in the hydrophilic processed portion is P, and a silver ion amount per unit area measured by an extraction test described below is Q, P and Q satisfy the relationships of Formula (1) and Formula (2) shown below. Accordingly, the medical instrument has excellent antifogging properties and antibacterial properties and excellently retains the antibacterial properties. 6.0?P/Q??Formula (1) 15.0?Q??Formula (2) The unit of P is ng/cm2, and the unit of Q is ng/cm2.

  • Patent number: 6537740
    Abstract: A silver halide color negative photographic lightsentive material comprises at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer on a support. The lightsensitive material has an ISO speed of 640 or more, the total silver content of 3.0 to 9.0 g/m2. Each of the red-sensitive emulsion layer, green-sensitive emulsion layer and blue-sensitive emulsion layer comprises two or more silver halide emulsion sub-layers having the same color sensitivity but different in speed to each other, and each of the red-sensitive sub-layer having the highest speed, green-sensitive sub-layer having the highest speed and blue-sensitive emulsion sub-layer having the highest speed has a silver content of 0.3 to 1.3 g/m2.
