Publication number: 20140303287Abstract: A composition comprising thermoset polymer, shape memory polymer to facilitate macro scale damage closure, and a means for molecular scale healing is disclosed; the composition has the ability to resolve structural defects by a bio-mimetic close-then heal process. In use, the shape memory polymer serves to bring surfaces of a structural defect into approximation, whereafter use of the means for molecular scale healing allowed for movement of the healing means into the defect and thus obtain molecular scale healing. The means for molecular scale healing can be a thermoplastic such as fibers, particles or spheres which are used by heating to a level at or above the thermoplastic's melting point, then cooling of the composition below the melting temperature of the thermoplastic. Compositions of the invention have the ability to not only close macroscopic defects, but also to do so repeatedly even if another wound/damage occurs in a previously healed/repaired area.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2014Publication date: October 9, 2014Applicant: Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical CollegeInventors: Guoqiang Li, Harper Meng, Amir Shojaei

Patent number: 8771796Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a coating film that is capable of forming a coating film having excellent smoothness, distinctness of image and luster using an aqueous coating composition. The present invention provides a method for forming a coating film comprising: Step (1): forming an uncured coating film by applying to a substrate an aqueous coating composition that contains a copolymer of monomer components comprising one or more N-substituted (meth)acrylamide compounds, the copolymer being a graft copolymer comprising (A) a main chain having a lower critical solution temperature T1 in water within the range of 30 to 95° C., and (B) at least one hydrophobic side chain; Step (2): preheating the uncured coating film formed in Step (1) under heating conditions such that a preheating temperature T2 falls within the range of 60 to 100° C.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2011Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Kansai Paint Co., Ltd.Inventor: Takeshi Fujii

Patent number: 8772404Abstract: A composition for treating carpets. The composition seals and protects a portion of a polyester carpet to which a colorant is applied such that, after the polyester carpet is walked on by 30,000 steps and vacuumed by 600 strokes, the ?ECMC (l:c=2:1) of the portion of the polyester carpet to which the colorant is applied is less than about 6.0. The ?CCMC of the portion of the polyester carpet to which the colorant is applied is less than about ?3.0 D. The composition imparts wear resistance to a nylon carpet such that an average width of free ends of carpet fibers that form the nylon carpet increases by less than about 10% when the nylon carpet is subjected to a simulated wear test that includes contacting the carpet fibers to a steel beating bar, covered with nylon, in a drum rotating at thirty-five rotations/minute for seventy-two hours.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2013Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.Inventors: Paul A. Clark, Holly Ann St. Martin, Cary E. Manderfield
