Abstract:
Compositions comprising a hyperbranched compound and a polymer prepared from reactants comprising at least one (meth)acrylate monomer, and dental filling compositions comprising a hyperbranched compound.
Abstract:
A polymer composition that includes a hydrophilic polymer, an optional secondary organic polymer, and a bioactive agent distributed therein, wherein the bioactive agent is selected from the group consisting of a silver compound, a copper compound, a zinc compound, and combinations thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to dental compositions that can be used as adhesives for bonding a dental material to a dental structure surface and/or as a dental restorative material. The dental composition is preferably applied to a dental structure surface under conditions effective to etch the dental structure surface.
Abstract:
The toner particles of this invention comprise pigment and a resin. The resin comprises a novel polymer formed from ethylenically unsaturated monomers, macromeric moieties that render the resin dispersible in hydrocarbon solvents, and a surface-release promoting moiety. When used for toner particles the polymer further comprises charge directing chelating moieties. The toner particles also include a charge director, preferably a metal cation. The toner particles, when dispersed in a carrier liquid, are useful as liquid toners for electrographic or electrophotographic processes.
Abstract:
An electrostatic liquid toner imaging process uses a liquid toner comprises a perfluorinated solvent and polymer resin-bound pigment particles. The polymer resin is preferably a resin containing highly fluorinated or perfluorinated units within the polymer resin or a resin comprising of at least 10% perfluorinated units, the rest comprising nonfluorinated units.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to dental compositions that can be used as adhesives for bonding a dental material to a dental structure surface and/or as a dental restorative material. The dental composition is preferably applied to a dental structure surface under conditions effective to etch the dental structure surface.
Abstract:
Compositions comprising an acidic polymer compound and a (meth)acrylic copolymer prepared from reactants comprising at least one aliphatic, aromatic, or aralkyl (meth)acrylate monomer and at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a polar group or a siloxane group, and dental filling compositions comprising the composition, and methods of using the compositions
Abstract:
