Publication number: 20040045479Abstract: Compositions and methods for destroying biological agents such as toxins and bacteria are provided wherein the substance to be destroyed is contacted with finely divided metal oxide or hydroxide nanocrystals. In various embodiments, the metal oxide or metal hydroxide nanocrystals have reactive atoms stabilized on their surfaces, species adsorbed on their surfaces, or are coated with a second metal oxide. The desired metal oxide or metal hydroxide nanocrystals can be pressed into pellets for use when a powder is not feasible. Preferred metal oxides for the methods include MgO, SrO, BaO, CaO, TiO2, ZrO2, FeO, V2O3, V2O5, Mn2O3, Fe2O3, NiO, CuO, Al2O3, SiO2, ZnO, Ag2O, [Ce(NO3)3—Cu(NO3)2]TiO2, Mg(OH)2, Ca(OH)2, Al(OH)3, Sr(OH)2, Ba(OH)2, Fe(OH)3, Cu(OH)3, Ni(OH)2, Co(OH)2, Zn(OH)2, AgOH, and mixtures thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2003Publication date: March 11, 2004Inventors: Olga Koper, Kenneth J.

Patent number: 6699580Abstract: This dispersion liquid composition for black matrix comprises; manganese oxide having an average particle diameter in the range of 50 to 2000 nm, or solid solution of manganese oxide and ferric oxide having an average particle diameter in the range of 50 to 2000 nm and a manganese content in the range of 15 to 70% by weight; at least one kind of dispersing agent selected from a group of water-soluble acrylic resin, sodium salt, ammonium salt or potassium salt of water-soluble acrylic resin, and sodium salt, ammonium salt or potassium salt of polycarboxylic acid or ligninsulfonic acid or bisphenolsulfonic acid; and water, or a solvent mixture of water and an organic solvent compatible with water. By employing such a dispersion liquid composition for black matrix, light reflectivity of a light absorption layer of an interface with a panel is remarkably reduced.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 1999Date of Patent: March 2, 2004Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba, Fuji Pigment Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takeo Ito, Koji Washiyama, Hajime Tanaka, Tomoko Nakazawa, Tsuyoshi Oyaizu, Kazuo Sakai, Masaru Fukuda, Yoichi Inubushi

Patent number: 6682594Abstract: A process for making a functional film by adding a magnesium alkoxide and a diethanolamine, which can dissolve or disperse the magnesium alkoxide, in an organic solvent followed by allowing hydrolysis of the magnesium alkoxide to proceed in a rate-controlling manner wherein the magnesium alkoxide is dissolved or dispersed in the organic solvent. Water is added in no more than a stoichiometric amount to the solution or dispersion partially to hydrolyze the magnesium alkoxide. The partial hydrolyzate solution is matured to grow magnesium oxide and/or magnesium hydroxide particles, resulting in a stable sol solution.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2002Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshio Yoshihara, Nobuko Takahashi, Satoshi Mitamura

Patent number: 6641939Abstract: The invention relates to the utilization of doped alumina for static charge sensitive applications, and to methods for making and using the same, e.g., for varying the electrical conductivity of alumina by doping with an appropriate transition metal oxide and subsequently heating to high temperatures in a reducing environment. This treatment allows the electrical conductivity to be tailored and thus provides a cost effective means for producing components with controlled resistivity.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1999Date of Patent: November 4, 2003Assignee: The Morgan Crucible Company PLCInventors: Cheng-Tsin Lee, Randel F.
