  • Patent number: 11117164
    Abstract: A liquid polymeric coating composition that upon application to a substrate, such as a coil substrate, preferably does not exhibit the edge build and edge blistering that commonly occurs with conventional liquid polymeric coating compositions. In some embodiments, the liquid polymeric coating composition is modified by tailoring the surface tension, the openness of the coating composition as indicated by the modulus of elasticity, or a combination thereof to reduce edge build and edge blistering. The modified liquid polymeric composition may be applied to a surface of the substrate and cured to form a film coating that reduces or alleviates commonly encountered edge defects in conventional liquid polymeric coating compositions, such as edge build and edge blistering, which may avoid the need for edge trimming of the coated substrate. The coated coil substrate is well suited for forming food or beverage containers or portions thereof.

  • Patent number: 9738776
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for making a silica masterbatch that contains hydrophobated silica, solution-made rubber and emulsion-made rubber. Hydrophobated silica is mixed into a latex emulsion. Solution-rubber crumb in an aqueous suspension is mixed into the latex emulsion, which is coagulated, and a crumb is recovered, further homogenized, dried and baled to yield the silica masterbatch. A well-dispersed mixture of hydrophobated silica and emulsion-made rubber is added into a steam distillation step of a solution-rubber process from which a silica masterbatch is recovered. The emulsion-made rubber can be omitted to make a silica masterbatch of solution rubber and silica without emulsion rubber. The silica masterbatch has physical properties similar to those found in a comparable dry-mixed composition, but the silica masterbatch can be incorporated more easily and less expensively into tires and other rubber products than the dry-mixed composition.

    Abstract: Methods for the deposition of silver-comprising films on nonconducting substrates, and, more particularly, to deposition of such films that are very thin, are provided. The surface of nonconducting substrates is modified with a superabsorbent polymer to increase silver deposition when compared to a non-modified surface. Also provided are films produced using a swelling agent, whereby porosity of the surface of the nonconducting substrate is increased, thereby permitting increased silver deposition when compared to an unmodified surface.

  • Patent number: 9307579
    Abstract: A transparent window (1) has an electrically heatable coating, which extends over a substantial part of the area of the window (1), in particular over its viewing area (A). In addition, the coating is electrically connected to at least two mutually opposite low-impedance bus bars in such a way that, after an electrical feed voltage has been applied to the bus bars, a current flows between them over a heating area (21) formed by the coating. In this arrangement, there is between the bus bars and the heating area (21) at least one at least partially light-transmitting transitional region (15), the effective surface resistance of which is lower than the surface resistance of the coating. In order to obtain a transitional region (15) having the visual appearance of a band filter, it is proposed that the surface resistance in the at least one transitional region (15) increases in the direction from the assigned bus bar to the heating area (21).
