Publication number: 20140099446Abstract: A protective sealant composition that is useful for sealing a colorant to a substrate, such as carpet. The protective sealant composition is formulated such that, upon drying, the composition forms a topcoat on the surface of the substrate, with the topcoat having a hard component and a soft component. The composition provides a durable protection against color fading and resoiling to the applied colorant, as well as to the rest of the surface of the substrate. The composition also provides wear resistance to the carpet by reducing the amount that the widths of the top ends of carpet fibers increase when subjected to wearing.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2012Publication date: April 10, 2014Applicant: S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc.Inventors: Paul A. Clark, Holly Ann St. Martin

Patent number: 8629200Abstract: The present invention provides an organic/inorganic compositive dispersant and a method for producing the same. The compositive dispersant comprises a complex of inorganic clay and an organic surfactant. The compositive dispersant is produced by reacting inorganic clay with the organic surfactant in a solvent to generate a complex. The inorganic clay is layered or platelet. The organic surfactant is an anionic surfactant such as alkyl sulfates, or a nonionic surfactant such as octylphenol polyethoxylate and polyoxyethylene alkyl ether. The compositive dispersant may be used to produce electrolytes of a solar cell or to increase the hardness of an epoxy resin.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2012Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: National Taiwan UniversityInventors: Jiang-Jen Lin, Wei-Ting Chen, Yen-Chi Hsu, Chih-Wei Chiu
