A chromic luminescent composition and method for fabricating the composition are disclosed. The chromic luminescent composition comprises at least one or more non-luminescent materials and one or more luminescent materials. The one or more non-luminescent materials having absorption spectra that at least partially overlap with the spectrum of incident electromagnetic radiation. The one or more luminescent materials convert at least a portion of energy of incident electromagnetic radiation to a lower energy wavelength. The one or more non-luminescent materials and the one or more luminescent materials are selected such that, when subsequently exposed to incident electromagnetic radiation, color and brightness are substantially modulated through absorption and emission as a function of incident electromagnetic radiation. Also disclosed are a chromic luminescent textile and a method for fabricating the textile.

Devices formed of or including biocompatible polyhydroxyalkanoates are provided with controlled degradation rates, preferably less than one year under physiological conditions. Preferred devices include sutures, suture fasteners, meniscus repair devices, rivets, tacks, staples, screws (including interference screws), bone plates and bone plating systems, surgical mesh, repair patches, slings, cardiovascular patches, orthopedic pins (including bone filling augmentation material), adhesion barriers, stents, guided tissue repair / regeneration devices, articular cartilage repair devices, nerve guides, tendon repair devices, atrial septal defect repair devices, pericardial patches, bulking and filling agents, vein valves, bone marrow scaffolds, meniscus regeneration devices, ligament and tendon grafts, ocular cell implants, spinal fusion cages, skin substitutes, dural substitutes, bone graft substitutes, bone dowels, wound dressings, and hemostats. The polyhydroxyalkanoates can contain additives, be formed of mixtures of monomers or include pendant groups or modifications in their backbones, or can be chemically modified, all to alter the degradation rates. The polyhydroxyalkanoate compositions also provide favorable mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and degradation times within desirable time frames under physiological conditions.

The present application relates to encapsulated benefit agents, compositions comprising such encapsulated benefit agents and processes for making and using compositions comprising such encapsulated benefit agents. Such encapsulated benefit agents eliminate or minimize one or more of the drawbacks of current encapsulated benefit agents and thus provide formulators with additional perfume delivery opportunities.

A surface crosslinking treatment method of a water-absorbing resin powder is disclosed that can overcome various problems in production encountered in the production of surface crosslinked water-absorbing resin powders on an industrial scale and can produce a water-absorbing resin powder having excellent physical properties without causing deterioration in physical properties of resin. The surface crosslinking treatment method of a water-absorbing resin powder includes adding a surface crosslinking agent to a water-absorbing resin powder and heat treating the mixture, wherein (1) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is stirred and cooled under an air flow; (2) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is cooled under an air flow, and at the same time, at least a part of fine particles of the water-absorbing resin powder and / or the residual crosslinking agent is removed by the air flow; or (3) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is cooled and simultaneously granulated, and preferably an aqueous solution is added to the water-absorbing resin powder at a temperature of 40-100° C. during the cooling treatment.

The present invention provides a treatment composition comprising a hydrophobic dye.

A garment creation system comprising a card and a camera is provided. The card has a depiction of a garment and encoded information printed thereon. The camera is configured for: reading the encoded information on said card; capturing an image of a person; manipulating the captured image in accordance with the encoded information, thereby generating a manipulated image based on the depicted garment; generating print data for a garment piece outline with a decorative finish, based on said manipulated image; and communicating with a garment fabric printer for printing the garment piece outline and the decorative finish on to a surface of a bolt of fabric.

Method for invisibly marking a liquid petroleum hydrocarbon. The method comprises adding to the liquid petroleum hydrocarbon at least one dye selected from the group consisting of 1,4,5,8-tetrasubstituted anthraquinones and anthraquinone dimers. The absorption maximum of the dye(s) is in the range from 710 nm to 850 nm.
