Abstract: The present invention provides a metal oxide dispersion comprises a metal oxide, a millbase and a dispersant. The dispersant in the metal oxide is selected from a group consisting of a phosphoric acid polyester copolymer, a trimethoxysilane compound, a triethoxysilanes compound, dimethylamino ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and a combination thereof, and the dispersion is substantially free of water. The metal oxide dispersion of the invention is useful for manufacturing an inkjet ink to provide a high-quality color image on a contact lens or a mold so as to produce a colored contact lens.

Abstract: A system and method for thermal regulation, the system comprising a bedding element that is configured to enclose at least a part of a living being or other object. The system further comprising a temperature regulation element that is included in the bedding element and that includes a phase change material which changes between a liquid phase and a solid phase within the desired temperature range.

Abstract: Infant warming systems are described herein generally comprising a temperature regulation assembly which encloses a phase change material (PCM). The temperature regulation assembly may be initially heated (or re-heated) by water contained within a heating assembly and then placed within a retaining pouch of an infant bedding. The PCM may then provide constant heat over a period of time to the infant. A control/indicator interface coupled to the regulation assembly may constantly monitor the temperature of the PCM as well as the ambient temperature to provide one or more indications or alerts to the user with respect to one of several states of the warming assembly.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for regulating body temperature. The system includes a housing that comprises compartments for a phase change material and a heat transfer material. The compartments are configured to transfer heat from the heat transfer material to the phase change material. A temperature sensor is used to determine when the phase change material has reached a pre-determined temperature. When the pre-determined temperature is reached, a release mechanism or lever is coupled to the temperature sensor to separate the phase change material compartment from the heat transfer material compartment or to remove the heat transfer material away from the phase change material compartment. The heated phase change material compartment can be used to regulate body temperature.
