Abstract:
A single disinfectable vinyl baby bouncer seat cover is made from health care use vinyl. The specifications of the health care vinyl permit surface disinfection using sodium hypochlorite (bleach) 1:10 diluted with water. A baby bouncer seat cover constructed from health care use vinyl allows disinfection in infection controlled environments using surface disinfectants containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach) 1:10 diluted with water. The disinfectable vinyl baby bouncer seat cover incorporates a seat belt restraint system and the design creates a central pocket that cradles an infant in a semi-reclined position. The design and health care use vinyl components incorporated in the invention, create a comfortable infant seat cover that maximizes disinfection within infection controlled environments. The disinfectable vinyl baby bouncer seat cover is placed over a baby bouncer frame, the baby bouncer frame is not inclusive in this invention. Environments such as hospital nurseries, neonatal intensive care units, pediatric intensive care units, pediatric units, large day care centers, and any other institutions that serve large numbers of infants may disinfect the seat covers after each use maintaining an environment of infection control.
Abstract:
Provided are a resin blend for melt processing, a pellet and a method of preparing a resin article using the same. The resin blend may include a first resin, and a second resin having a difference in solubility parameter from the first resin at 25° C. of 0.001 to 10 (J/cm3)1/2. The resin blend can improve mechanical and surface characteristics of a resin article. Further, since coating or plating is not required for manufacturing a resin article, a manufacturing time and/or cost can be reduced, and productivity can be increased.
Abstract:
A method of forming a three-dimensional object of polyurethane, polyurea, or copolymer thereof is carried out by: (a) providing a carrier and an optically transparent member having a build surface, the carrier and the build surface defining a build region therebetween; (b) filling the build region with a polymerizable liquid, the polymerizable liquid including at least one of: (i) a blocked or reactive blocked prepolymer, (ii) a blocked or reactive blocked diisocyanate, or (iii) a blocked or reactive blocked diisocyanate chain extender; (c) irradiating the build region with light through the optically transparent member to form a solid blocked polymer scaffold and advancing the carrier away from the build surface to form a three-dimensional intermediate having the same shape as, or a shape to be imparted to, the three-dimensional object, with the intermediate containing the chain extender; and then (d) heating or microwave irradiating the three-dimensional intermediate sufficiently to form from the three-dimensional intermediate the three-dimensional object of polyurethane, polyurea, or copolymer thereof.

Abstract:
A polyamide resin composition for a molded article exposed to high-pressure hydrogen contains a polyamide 6 resin (A) and a polyamide resin (B) having a melting point, as determined by DSC, that is not higher than a melting point of the polyamide 6 resin (A) +20° C. and a cooling crystallization temperature, as determined by DSC, that is higher than a cooling crystallization temperature of the polyamide 6 resin (A), the polyamide resin (B) present in an amount of 0.01 to 5 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the polyamide 6 resin (A). The polyamide resin composition can provide a molded article having excellent weld properties and is less likely to suffer failure points despite repeated charging and discharging of high-pressure hydrogen.
