Patent number: 8445110Abstract: A film that contains a thermoplastic polyurethane and water-soluble polymer is provided. The film is both elastic and water-sensitive (e.g., water-soluble, water-dispersible, etc.) in that it loses its integrity over time in the presence of water. The dual attributes of elasticity and water-sensitivity may be achieved by reducing the tendency of the thermoplastic polyurethane and water-soluble polymer to form separate phases. Namely, phase separation may cause the elastomer to act as a barrier and limit the ability of the water-soluble polymer to contact water and thereby disperse. To minimize such phase separation, a variety of aspects of the film construction may be selectively controlled, such as the nature of the thermoplastic polyurethane and water-soluble polymer, the relative amount of each component, and so forth.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2012Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Bo Shi, James H.

The adhesive compositions contain at least two polymers with different hydrophilicities. The hydrophilic polymer has quick tack when exposed to a hydrophilic solvent, such as water or other aqueous solvent, while the hydrophobic polymer provides strong adhesion to a paper or polymeric substrate. The adhesive composition may contain particulate fillers which enable fast exhaustion of the activation fluid out of the adhesive when applied to a substrate, thereby allowing the hydrophobic polymers of the adhesive composition to achieve strong adhesion of the liner-free label to the paper or polymeric substrate. The particulate fillers may also function as anti-blocking agents when liner-free label media are tightly wound in a roll.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2012Publication date: February 7, 2013Inventors: Benjamin David Lux, Daniel Youngwhan Cho, Felix Perets Shvartsman

Publication number: 20130005886Abstract: A styrenic composition including a polar modified styrenic co-polymer resulting from the polymerization of a combined mixture of at least one styrenic monomer and at least one comonomer and a biodegradable component is disclosed. The at least one comonomer includes a polar functional group and the polar modified styrenic co-polymer and the biodegradable component are combined to obtain a styrenic composition having a biodegradable component. Also disclosed is a method of enhancing bio-polymer miscibility in a styrenic based polymer. The polarity of a blend is manipulated by combining a styrenic monomer and a polar co-monomer to form a combined mixture and subjecting the combined mixture to polymerization to obtain a styrenic polymer blend to which a bio-polymer is added.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2011Publication date: January 3, 2013Applicant: FINA TECHNOLOGY, Inc.Inventors: Wei Wang, David W.

Publication number: 20130005851Abstract: The present invention relates to a unique polymer dispersant mixture to be incorporated into a carbon black ink formulation. More particularly, the a polymeric dispersant mixture consists of a first polymer dispersant having moieties of methacrylic acid; poly(propylene glycol)-4-nonylphenyl ether acrylate; and poly(ethylene glycol)2,4,6-tris-(1-phenylethyl)phenyl ether methacrylate in combination with a second polymer dispersant selected from the group consisting of a copolymer of methacrylic acid and benzyl methacrylate and a terpolymer of styrene, alpha-methyl styrene and acrylic acid. Carbon black inkjet inks having this particular polymer dispersant mixture exhibit improved text quality when compared to carbon black inks not having this polymer dispersant mixture.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2011Publication date: January 3, 2013Inventors: Xiaorong Cai, Elaine Money

Patent number: 8329780Abstract: Provided are an encapsulated colorant including a polymer resin and a colorant coated with the polymer resin, wherein the encapsulated colorant includes at least two types of colorants which have different average particle diameters with different distributions. The encapsulated colorant has two types of colorants which have different average particle diameters with different distributions. In the preparation of an encapsulated colorant, a supplementary colorant is added to the preparation of an initially added colorant after a specific period of time. Thus, a polymer resin growing on the colorants has a different size. Thus, the present general inventive concept provides an encapsulated colorant having at least two average particle diameters with different distributions and has beneficial miscibility since the colorants are coated with a polymer resin.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Jong-in Lee
