Front Cover: In article 2200509, Seung Koo Park, Hyung Cheol Shin, and co-workers establish a photocrosslinkable, solvent-free, homogenous poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) solution in tert-butyl acrylate by calculating 3D distances of solubility parameter ( Δ δ ¯ $\overline {\Delta \delta}$ ) between PDMS several liquid monomers. solid materials can be repeatably, continuously obtainable upon UV-i...

The elimination of mercury, low energy consumption, and heat make the ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV-LED) system emerge as a promising alternative to conventional UV-mercury radiation coating. Hence, series hydrophobic coatings based on urethane acrylate oligomer fluorinated monomer via UV-LED photopolymerisation was designed in this paper. presence fluorine component at 1160 cm−1, 1235 1...

Polymeric particle dispersions have numerous potential applications; currently one of the most relevant is their use as inks in electrophoretic displays. These colloidal particles are synthesized from the appropriate monomer using nonaqueous dispersion (NAD) polymerization in a nonpolar solvent, which requires a stabilizer to control particle size and morphology. We have previously reported the...

The developmental toxicities of seven acrylates were studied in Sprague-Dawley rats after inhalation exposure for 6 h/day, during days 6 to 20 of gestation. The exposure concentrations were: for acrylic acid, 50, 100, 200, or 300 ppm; for methyl acrylate, 25, 50, or 100 ppm; for ethyl acrylate, 25, 50, 100, or 200 ppm; for butyl acrylate, 100, 200, or 300 ppm; for ethylhexyl acrylate, 50, 75, o...

Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) were formed involving hydrophobic polybutyl acrylate (PBA) and hydrophilic poly hydroxyethyl acrylate (PHEA). PBA prepolymer was first formed in presence of ferric oxide nanoparticles (

Maximizing lines speeds on coating/drying equipment is an obvious approach to improving manufacturing economics. Insufficient dryer capacity is often an impediment to taking advantage of the mechanical speed limit for an existing line, but adding additional dryer capacity can be prohibitive due to return on investment and/or space limitations. Optimizing oven settings becomes a critical path to...
