Abstract: A water-soluble coating or other deposit is produced from a formulation that is comprised of a curable liquid substance and a dispersed particulate effervescing agent. The formulation is particularly useful as a solder resist in the manufacture of PCBs, and the preferred composition contains n-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacrylamide, and polyvinylpyrrolidone.

Abstract: Resin compositions comprising 20 to 50% by weight, based on total composition weight, of a first resin which comprises an acrylate-epoxy oligomer having a molecular weight of from 2000 to 5000; from 2 to 10% of a second resin which comprises an acrylate-urethane oligomer; up to 50% of a third resin which comprises a second acrylate-epoxy oligomer, where from 1 to 5% of the epoxy is an epoxy novolac; from 10 to 40% of a liquid acrylate; from 2 to 20% of a liquid diacrylate having an ether linkage; from 5 to 25% of a liquid alkylene diacrylate; and from 1 to 5% of a UV photoinitiator. The compositions also preferably includes from 0.05 to 1% of a flow control agent. The compositions are applied to substrates such as printed wiring boards and cured with ultraviolet light to form a conformal coating on the substrate.

Abstract: A photographic film which comprises (A) a stretched film of a styrene polymer having a syndiotactic configuration or a composition containing it, wherein thickness is 20 to 500 .mu.m, haze is not more than 3% and moisture expansion coefficient is not more than 1.times.10.sup.-6 /% RH, and (B) a photosensitive layer, which is light and excellent in mechanical properties, is disclosed.

Abstract: A process for adhering high nitrile resins onto a plastic material. The process comprises the steps of selecting a high nitrile resin having a nitrile content of at least about 60 percent by weight and prepared by the copolymerization of an olefinically unsaturated monovinyl nitrile and a monovinyl monomer copolymerizable therewith in the presence of a conjugated diene rubber, preparing a solution comprising from about one to 70 percent by weight of the high nitrile resin in a photopolymerizable solvent comprising from about 30 to 99 percent by weight of the solution and from about 0.

Abstract: A process for producing a light control plate which selectively scatters incident light of a specific angle, which comprises:(1) bringing at least one photopolymerizable compound of a photopolymerizable monomer and a photopolymerizable oligomer into contact with a transparent plastic film or sheet, each of the monomer and the oligomer having a polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond and being capable of forming a polymer having a refractive index different from a refractive index of said transparent plastic film or sheet, to allow said photopolymerizable compound to infiltrate into said transparent film or sheet through a surface of said transparent film or sheet, thereby forming a swollen surface layer, and(2) irradiating the swollen surface layer with light from a linear light source at a predetermined angle to cure said swollen surface surface layer.

Abstract: A process for the manufacture of a decorative product particularly for use in the ornamental field, in which selected organic chemical compounds are employed, which are prepared and applied in a way to confer to the same product favorable safety characteristics during use.
