UV printing is different from conventional printing in many ways. It is still ink on paper but the ink dries through a completely different process. Instead of having solvents in the ink that evaporate into the air and absorb into the paper, UV inks dry through a photomechanical process. When the inks are exposed to ultraviolet lights they turn from a liquid, or paste, to a solid. There is sign...

Nanoscale patterns with high conductivity based on silver nanoparticle inks were fabricated using spray coating method. Through optimizing the solution content and spray operation, accurate nanoscale patterns consisting of silver nanoparticles with a square resistance lower than 1 Ω /cm2 were obtained. By incorporating in situ sintering to substitute the general post sintering process, the time...

A blue tattoo is more resistant to laser therapy than black or brown tattoos. This study aimed to confirm titanium as a key response-disturbing constituent in a blue tattoo ink after Nd-YAG (1064 nm) laser treatment by animal experiments. Rabbits' backs were tattooed with four ink colours, and the Nd-YAG (1064 nm) laser was used to remove the tattoos. The response to the laser treatment in the ...

Ornamental tattooing involves the administration of exogenous pigments into the skin to create a permanent design. Our case focuses on a 62-year-old woman who presented with an inflamed enlarging nodule on her right proximal calf, which arose within the red pigment of an ornamental tattoo. The nodule was diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and subsequently excised. Over the course of the...

Although methods exist for predicting the color of a spot color ink when it overprints another ink, there is a need for a simplified model for the purpose of previewing that can be used during document creations. The proposed model characterizes each spot color individually and predicts the color of overprinting solids and halftones by linearly combining the reflectances of two colors. Each ink...

New particles $\phi$ in the MeV-GeV range produced at colliders and escaping detection can be searched for operating $b-$ $\tau-$factories such as Belle II. A typical search topology involves pair-produced $\tau$s (or mesons), one of which decaying to visibles plus $\phi$, other providing a tag. One crucial impediment these searches is limited ability reconstruct parents' separate boosts. This ...

3D-Reactive printing brings a new perspective for the 3D-printing of alginate-based inks. Printability was achieved through tuning crosslinking kinetics, without changing composition inks or use additives.

TedChing in substantive areas ofphnning has become increasingly calculative. Students have been taught to use techniques, but not to ask whether they are asking the right questions A new course whlch attempted to instead emphasize a meditatlve approach to transportation planning is described. A theme of exposing and criticizing assumptions-bubble bursting--lies at the heart of the course. Philo...
