Abstract: A contact lens comprising one or more microchannels for transport of liquid through the lens is provided. The contact lens can be made by contacting a curable composition with a microfiber that is insoluble in the curable composition; curing the curable composition to provide a polymeric lens body with the microfiber embedded therein; and contacting the polymeric lens body with a solvent to dissolve the microfiber.

Abstract: A method of forming an inorganic oxide coating on a monolith article is disclosed. The coated monolith article is suitable for the treatment of an exhaust gas. The method comprises spraying, as a dry particulate aerosol, inorganic particles comprising an aluminosilicate zeolite having a SAR of greater than 100:1 and a silicone resin to form a coating layer. The present invention also provides an uncalcined porous monolith article for use in forming a monolith article for the treatment of an exhaust gas. The uncalcined monolith article comprises a dry particulate composition comprising inorganic particles and a silicone resin.

Abstract: A vehicular exhaust filter comprising a porous substrate having an inlet face and an outlet face with the porous substrate comprising inlet channels extending from the inlet face and outlet channels extending from the outlet face is disclosed. The inlet channels and the outlet channels are separated by a plurality of filter walls having a porous structure. The vehicular exhaust filter is loaded with a refractory powder having a tapped density before loading of less than 0.10 g/cm3 and the vehicular exhaust filter has a mass loading of the refractory powder of less than 10 g/l.

Abstract: A method for designing an apex seal, a rotor housing, and a rotor includes defining a rotor radius describing a distance between a rotor housing and a specified point within a rotor pitch curve p1, defining a switch angle describing a portion of an apex seal of the rotor to contact the rotor (START) housing, and identifying a generating curve g1 from the rotor radius and the switch angle. A conjugate curve g2 represents an envelope of patterns traced by the generating curve g1 as the rotor pitch curve p1 is moved along a housing pitch curve p2. A rotor flank curve g3 represents an inside envelope of patterns traced by the conjugate curve g2 as the housing pitch curve p2 is moved along the rotor pitch curve p1. Curves g1, g2, and g3 may represent profiles of an apex seal, a rotor housing, and a rotor, respectively.
