  • Publication number: 20080028826
    Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for monitoring the subsurface at facilities for the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). A surface penetration is made in a facility surface providing access to the subsurface soil beneath the facility. A soil probe is placed in communication with the soil beneath the facility surface and used to withdraw samples of soil gas from the pore space within the soil. The soil probe includes a monitoring port configured to seal the surface penetration and minimize the movement of undesirable materials between the facility and the subsurface via the monitoring port. The soil probe has an end filter in communication with the subsurface under the facility. The monitoring port is coupled to a sampling pump used to withdraw the soil gas sample. Soil gas samples are periodically obtained and analyzed for the presence of VOCs.

  • Publication number: 20060068178
    Abstract: A method and coating for printing a substantially permanent and smudge, water, and air fade resistant image on recording media is herein disclosed. The method involves the steps of formulating the coating, applying the coating to the recording media, drying the coating, forming an image on the coated recording media, drying the image on the recording media to remove the solvents from the colorants used to form the image, and fusing the coating to protective film over the recording media that substantially encapsulates the colorants used to print the image, thereby rendering the image substantially smudge, water, and air fade resistant. The coating includes a quantity of fusible particles admixed with a binder. In one formulation, the coating also includes a mordant. The coating itself is capable of absorbing and retaining colorants applied thereto and may therefore be used on absorbent or non-absorbent recording media.

  • Publication number: 20060045997
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn to compositions and coated substrates wherein a back coating layer can be implemented for use to mitigate ink transfer, surface damage, smudging, and sticking between stacked sheets in, output trays of ink-jet ink printers. Specifically, a coated media sheet can comprise a printing surface including an ink-receiving coating formulated to accept an ink-jet ink composition, and an opposing back surface comprising a back coating. The back coating can include an admixture of 0.5 wt % to 75 wt % of a polymeric binder, 5 wt % to 95 wt % of filler particulates having an average particle size from about 0.01 ?m to about 15 ?m, and 3 wt % to 90 wt % of spacer particulates having an average particle size from about 6 ?m to about 500 ?m. In one embodiment, the spacer particulates are larger than the filler particulates.

  • Publication number: 20050249922
    Abstract: A charge control composition for controlling the resistivity of recording media used in electrophotographic printing processes is herein disclosed. The charge control composition is included in one or more layers applied to a substrate of the recording media. The charge control composition is an admixture of an electrolyte, a solvent, an organic carrier, and a co-organic carrier. The organic carrier is selected to form and maintain at least some physical and/or chemical bonds with the solvent such that he organic carrier will retain a fraction of the solvent during a high temperature fusion procedure. The co-organic carrier is selected to have a smaller molecular weight than the organic carrier and will also form at least some physical and or chemical bonds with a solvent.
