Abstract: Protection against impact damage to delicate items stored in a protective encasement such as cell phone cases is significantly improved by protectively lining the interior of a protective encasement with a unique protective combination. This combination includes a protective inlay or insert of a thermoset viscoelastomeric protector in its static form coated with a compatible and non-confining elastomeric polymer coating. Coating the viscoelastomeric protector with the elastomeric coating necessarily requires retention of an undistorted viscoelastomeric protector in its static form during the formative coating procedure. This can be effectively accomplished by injecting coating under low pressure and high solids coating conditions.

Abstract: The present invention provides sensory device combinations, such as a portable touch screen smart phone, which possesses unexpectedly superior protection against impact damage. The sensory device combinations include a unique class of thermoset viscoelastomeric protectors containing epoxidized vegetable oils as a predominant thermosetting reaction media reactant. The thermoset viscoelastomeric protector possesses fluid-like compression and rebounding characteristics, and may be suitably positioned so as to protect any delicate sensory device component from impact damage. The viscoelastomeric protector may be provided in a form substantially free from aberration and thus it is perfectly compatible for use as a visually transparent component of a touch screen device. The viscoelastomeric protector can also serve as a heat sump.

Abstract: A restraint system includes: a base system engages a restraint to apply the restraint to a person, for example, on the limbs of a person. The base system can communicate with a remote control operated by security person. The remote control can be from a remote location so that the security person is removed from intimate contact with the person to be restrained. This can increase the safety form the security person. The base system can be fixed to a portion of a vehicle, such as a roof, trunk, side panel, hood, bumper, etc. The restraint can include a locking mechanism that helps to prevent overtightening.

Abstract: Disclosed is an energy absorbing compound comprising an epoxidized vegetable oil, a thermoplastic polymer and a prepolymer. The energy absorbing compound is a polymeric compound which exhibits low rebound velocity and hysteresis. The energy absorbing compound possesses good energy-attenuating properties and is capable of absorbing repeat shocks without structural damage.
