Abstract: The present invention discloses a wear-resistive housing for a portable electronic device. The housing is made of a wear-resistive plastic molding material, or made of a rigid or plastic material on which is coated a wear-resistive coating. The wear-resistive plastic molding material or the wear-resistive coating includes a hardness-improving additive selected from the group consisting of zirconium dioxide, boron nitride, tungsten carbide, silicon carbide, and mixtures of two or more of the above.

Abstract: A container made of a porous material and coated with precious metal nanoparticles is disclosed. The method of making it includes: adding precious metal nanoparticles and intermedium particles to a solution; maintaining the solution at a first temperature; heating a container body made of a porous material at a second temperature; and immersing the container body in the solution wherein the temperature difference between the first temperature and the second temperature causes the precious metal nanoparticles and intermedium particles to permeate into the pores of the container body. The resultant container has precious metal nanoparticles not only attached to its surface but also within its pores.

Abstract: A radar wave camouflage structure is disclosed. The radar wave camouflage structure comprises a substrate; a first layer on the substrate, comprising a first polymer matrix; magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in the first polymer matrix, wherein the magnetic nanoparticles comprise a mixture of Fe3O4, Fe3O4-4C carbide, Fe3O4—Ni composite and Fe2O3; a second layer on the first layer, comprising a second polymer matrix; and carbon black dispersed in the second polymer matrix.
