Abstract: An inkjet receptive composition for use on glossy paper substrates may include a polymer binder, a multivalent salt, a pigment, a surfactant, a defoamer, and water. The polymer may be a polyurethane dispersion. The multivalent salt may be calcium chloride, and the water may be present in an amount greater than about 40 wt %. The inkjet receptive composition may have a viscosity in the range of about 3 and about 500 cP.

Abstract: An electromagnetic shielding device has a bottom layer, a shielding layer and a top layer. The shielding layer is mounted between the bottom layer and the top layer and is made of metal filaments and textile fibers. The metal filaments and the textile fibers of the shielding layer are blended and formed into a mesh. The electromagnetic shielding device in the present invention may be made into patches or forms that can be adhered to electrical and electronic equipment, or adapted for use in clothing.

Abstract: A hoop toy includes a plurality of arcuate tubular members. Each of the arcuate tubular members has a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. The first end of one of the arcuate tubular members is connected to the second end of an adjacent one of the arcuate tubular members so as to form a hoop. The hoop toy further has an elastic cord which passes through the arcuate tubular members in order to tie the latter together.

Abstract: A specular illuminator having a plurality of bulbs surrounded by a plurality of glass panes coated with a light-filtering resin on their inner surfaces. When the bulbs are not glowing, the glass surrounding them may be used as a mirror since the outer surface, not coated with light-filtering resin, can reflect the image; when the bulbs are glowing, the light will shine forth through the glass and, at the same time, reflect repetitively among the inner surface of the glass and project an image of numerous bulbs on the outer surface of the glass. With the application of bulbs of different colors and shapes or other ornaments, the reflection will look even more glaring.
