Publication number: 20080228150Abstract: The disclosure is directed to radiation catheter devices, methods for controlled application of irradiation to tissue at a body site, such as a cavity formed after removal of tissue, e.g. cancer, using such radiation catheter devices, solutions for forming a more lubricious luminal surface and method for lining lumens of such devices to improve the frictional characteristics thereof. The catheter device includes a flexible elongated shaft which is formed of low durometer polymeric material, which can be readily folded or coiled for securing the shaft to or under the skin of the patient and a radiation lumen lined with high durometer polymeric material to improve the frictional characteristics. The elongated shaft has at least one inner lumen for receiving a radiation source which has a layer of high durometer polymeric material that provides lower surface friction to facilitate advancement of a radiation source therein.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2007Publication date: September 18, 2008Inventors: Michael L.

Patent number: 7417090Abstract: A water-dispersible polyisocyanate composition comprises a hydrophobic polyisocyanate (A) and a vinyl polymer (B) having a nonionic group and an isocyanate group, in which the hydrophobic polyisocyanate (A) can be dispersed in a water-based medium by the vinyl polymer (B) having a nonionic group and an isocyanate group. The water-dispersible polyisocyanate composition is produced by reacting a hydrophobic polyisocyanate with a vinyl polymer (b) having a nonionic group and an active hydrogen group-containing group capable of reacting with an isocyanate group at a molar ratio of the isocyanate group to the active hydrogen group-containing group of 3 to 350.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2006Date of Patent: August 26, 2008Assignee: Dainippon Ink & Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: Hajime Suganuma, Masaki Watanabe, Masataka Ooka
