    Abstract: The present invention provides a bezel sealant for use in a polymer stabilized vertical alignment liquid crystal display. The bezel sealant includes at least the following compositions: epoxy resin 20-60% by weight, curing agent 5-50% by weight, methacrylate resin or acrylate resin 20-60% by weight, photoinitiator 0.1-1% by weight, filler 5-35% by weight, and silane coupling agent 0.05-5% by weight. The molecular weight of the methacrylate resin or the acrylate resin is greater than or equal to 500. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the dissolution of the methacrylate resin or acrylate resin in the bezel sealant by the liquid crystal medium is prevented to avoid the over-sized bumps formed in the periphery of the bezel. Light leakage phenomenon in the periphery of the bezel is decreased to increase product yield rate.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of making high performance UV cross-linked polymer functionalized molecular sieve/polymer mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) with either no macrovoids or voids of less than several angstroms at the interface of the polymer matrix and the molecular sieves. These UV cross-linked MMMs were prepared by incorporating polyethersulfone (PES) functionalized molecular sieves such as AlPO-14 and UZM-25 small pore microporous molecular sieves into a continuous UV cross-linkable polyimide polymer matrix followed by UV cross-linking. The UV cross-linked MMMs in the form of symmetric dense film, asymmetric flat sheet membrane, or asymmetric hollow fiber membranes have good flexibility, high mechanical strength, and exhibit significantly enhanced selectivity and permeability over polymer membranes made from corresponding continuous polyimide polymer matrices for carbon dioxide/methane and hydrogen/methane separations.
