Publication number: 20130034737Abstract: Disclosed is a cured multilayer sheet production method, comprising adjacently laminating a first uncured layer formed by a first curable resin and a second uncured layer formed by a second curable resin to form a laminated body, wherein the first curable resin contains a first monomer or partial polymer thereof, and an immiscible substance, the second curable resin contains a second monomer and polymer, the first monomer concentration in the first curable resin is higher than the polymerizable monomer concentration in the second curable resin, wherein in the laminating step, the immiscible substance is eccentrically distributed on or near an interface on the side opposite to the second uncured layer, and thereafter curing the layers, so that a cured multilayer sheet, wherein a substance different from a polymer cured layer is eccentrically located on the surface of the polymer cured layer, is produced at high productivity.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2011Publication date: February 7, 2013Applicant: NITTO DENKO CORPORATIONInventors: Eiichi Imoto, Yuta Shimazaki, Tatsuya Kitahara, Kunio Nagasaki

Patent number: 8367210Abstract: The invention provides the advantages of a metallic housing and those of a synthetic resin structure for electronic devices, home electrical devices, etc., achieves high productivity and mass productivity, and enables a desired configuration and structure to be designed freely. As a pretreatment, a shaped aluminum alloy material is dipped in an aqueous solution of at least one selected from the group consisting of ammonia, hydrazine, and a water-soluble amine compound. A thermoplastic resin composition containing polyphenylene sulfide as a component is integrally bonded to the surface of the treated shaped aluminum alloy material by injection molding or other method. The molded article is a product made of the shaped aluminum alloy material and the thermoplastic resin composition containing PPS. Thus, the characteristic features of metal can be utilized in terms of mechanical strength and external appearance design. Moreover, a complicated configuration and structure can be formed inside the housing.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2003Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: Taisei Plas Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masanori Naritomi, Naoki Ando, Masao Takahashi

Patent number: 8334044Abstract: A hydrogel-metal assembly is provided. An intervening polymer network is used to bond together a water-swollen hydrogel layer and a biocompatible surface-modified metallic layer. The hydrogel layer is a water-swollen hydrogel layer of at least two interpenetrating polymers. The surface of the biocompatible surface-modified metallic layer is surface-modified with an inorganic material. The intervening polymer network has been chemically grafted to the inorganic material of the biocompatible surface-modified metallic layer through bi-functional linker molecules. The intervening polymer network is further physically or chemically cross-linked with the polymers of the water-swollen hydrogel. The hydrogel-metal assembly can be adapted to form a medical device, medical implant, an artificial implant, an orthopedic implant, or at least as part of a joint.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2008Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior UniversityInventors: David Myung, Beinn V.
