Patent number: 5514733Abstract: An ink composition for thermal transfer using a basic dye, or a cationic dye, is disclosed. The ink composition for thermal transfer contains the basic dye and an organic high polymer, with the basic dye being dissolved or dispersed into the organic high polymer with a solubilizing agent compatible with both the basic dye and the organic high polymer. The solubilizing agent is an amphipathic compound, preferably, having an HLB value of 7 or greater. By forming an ink layer containing the ink composition for thermal transfer on a base, an ink ribbon for thermal transfer is formed. A thermal transfer target sheet having a receptor layer containing an interlayer compound substituted by an ion exchangeable with the basic dye and a binder resin is used. The ion exchangeable with the basic dye is exemplified by an organic ion, such as an organic onium ion.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 1994Date of Patent: May 7, 1996Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Kengo Ito, Toshihisa Inoue, Masanobu Hida, Motohiro Mizumachi

Patent number: 5502089Abstract: A crosslinkable polymeric emulsion has a pH from about 1.5 to about 8.5 and includes a carboxyl-substituted latex polymer dispersed in an aqueous medium, an Iron (III) compound and an amount of a stabilizer, selected from the group consisting of nonionic surfactants and protective colloids, effective to sterically stabilize the emulsion. A method for making a crosslinked polymer film includes forming a layer of the crosslinkable polymer emulsion and drying the layer to form the crosslinked polymer film wherein the film is ionically crosslinked between carboxyl substituent groups of the polymer by Iron (III) cations. A crosslinking agent for carboxyl-substituted polymers includes particles of a water-insoluble Iron (III) compound having an average maximum characteristic linear dimension of less than or equal to about 5 microns.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 1994Date of Patent: March 26, 1996Assignee: Rohm and Haas CompanyInventors: Mark C.

Patent number: 5500456Abstract: A new tire sealant and inflator composition is described which utilizes a sealant having superior performance, presented in a water-based carrier, and with an inflator composition consisting of mainly dimethyl ether, modified by trichloroethylene and nitrogen gas. The composition comprises a terpolymeric latex sealant emulsion, prevented from coagulating or vulcanizing in the dispenser by the addition of additives, and made more potent by the inclusion of certain wood flours having selected particle size distributions. Other ingredients, such as propylene glycol, a surfactant, triethanolamine and ammonia, confer special attributes; for example, softening the wood flour particles and keeping them dispersed in the aerosol can, while causing them to pack down into a sealing matrix once added to a tire having a puncture.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 1994Date of Patent: March 19, 1996Assignee: Snap Products, Inc.Inventors: Paul D.
