摘要:
A composition is described comprising a polymer. The polymer comprises polymerized units derived from a cleavable crosslinking monomer. The cleavable crosslinking monomer comprises at least two free-radically polymerizable groups and at least one group having the formula —O—C(R2)(R3)—O—, wherein R2 and R3 are independently hydrogen, alkyl, or aryl. The composition has a Tg no greater than 50° C. In some embodiments, the composition has a storage modulus greater than 3×105 Pa at 25° C. and 1 Hz and may be characterized as a non-tacky polymer. In other embodiments, the composition is a pressure sensitive adhesive. Upon cleavage of at least a portion of the polymerized monomeric units derived from the cleavable crosslinking monomer, the composition exhibits a change in at least one physical property. In another embodiment, the composition comprises a polymer and fragments. The fragments comprise the reaction product of a free-radically polymerizable group bonded to a polymer chain and a pendent hydroxyl group. The composition has a Tg no greater than 50° C. Also described are articles, comprising the composition described herein (i.e. before and/or after cleavage); as well as methods of making the composition and methods of making articles.
摘要:
An abrasive article with an integral dust collection system. The abrasive article comprises a porous abrasive layer with openings, a first filter media with channels, a second filter media, and an attachment interface layer. The openings of the porous abrasive layer cooperate with the channels to allow the flow of particles from the abrasive surface to the second filter media.

A low-cost integrated circuit package is provided for packaging integrated circuits. In preferred embodiments, the package comprises a flexible circuit that is laminated to a stiffener using a dielectric adhesive, with the conductive traces on the flexible circuit facing toward the stiffener but separated therefrom by the adhesive. The conductive traces include an array of flip-chip attachment pads. A window is formed in the stiffener over the attachment pad array, such as by etching. The adhesive is then removed over the attachment pads by laser ablation, but left in place between the pads, thus forming a flip-chip attachment site. In preferred embodiments, this invention eliminates the need for high-resolution patterned adhesive, and it also eliminates the need for application of a solder mask at the flip-chip attachment site, because the remaining adhesive performs the solder mask function of preventing bridging between attachment pads. This package provides a die attachment site having a high degree of planarity due to tensile stresses formed in the flexible circuit and adhesive layers during lamination of those layers to the stiffener. Embodiments of this invention may be used with TBGA, frangible lead, and other packaging technologies.
摘要:
A multiple layer reflective polarizer 12 is described. This element is placed between and optical cavity 24 and an LCD module 16 to form an optical display. The reflective polarizer reflects some light into the optical cavity 24 where it is randomized and may ultimately emerge with the correct polarization to be transmitted out of the display.
摘要:
An exhaust gas recirculation system for an internal combustion engine with a carburetor and a throttle for controlling air-fuel flow to the intake manifold of the vehicle; an exhaust gas recirculation conduit is connected between the vehicle exhaust and an induction passageway between the carburetor and the throttle. Valve means are operated in accordance with the intake manifold pressure to vary the amount of exhaust gas recirculation into the induction manifold, the valve having a high rate flow area scheduled to produce an increasing ratio of exhaust gas recirculation to intake air flow so as to continually increase the exhaust gas recirculation on increasing engine load thereby to maintain reduced vehicle NOx emissions during all operating conditions.
