20100190176 | TUMOR SUPPRESSOR DESIGNATED TS10Q23.3 - A specific region of chromosome 10 (10q23.3) has been implicated by series of studies to contain a tumor suppressor gene involved in gliomas, as well as a number of other human cancers. One gene within this region was identified, and the corresponding coding region of the gene represents a novel 47 kD protein. A domain of this product has an exact match to the conserved catalytic domain of protein tyrosine phosphatases, indicating a possible functional role in phosphorylation events. Sequence analyses demonstrated the a number of exons of the gene were deleted in tumor cell lines used to define the 10q23.3 region, leading to the classification of this gene as a tumor suppressor. Further analyses have demonstrated the presence of a number of mutations in the gene in both glioma and prostate carcinoma cells. Methods for diagnosing and treating cancers related to this tumor suppressor, designated as TS10q23.3, also are disclosed. | 07-29-2010 |

20110305860 | Blow Molded Articles and Process For Making Same - Blow molded articles are made from a polymeric composition containing a polyphenylene sulfide resin. The composition can further contain a reinforcing agent, such as glass fibers, and a combination of an organosilane coupling agent and an impact modifier. It was discovered that the combination of the aminosilane coupling agent and the impact modifier substantially increased the low shear viscosity and melt strength of the composition without increasing the high shear viscosity of the composition. The increase in the low shear viscosity makes the composition particularly well suited to molding articles with a complex shape. When producing blow molded articles, for instance, the composition provides better control over wall thickness while having improved interior surface smoothness at higher throughput and extrusion rates. | 12-15-2011 |

The reactively functionalized disulfide compound is added in a stoichiometric amount to react with a portion of the polyarylene sulfide. The melt processing forms a polyarylene sulfide/liquid crystal polymer copolymer that is a compatibilizer in the alloy. The polyarylene sulfide/liquid crystal polymer alloys may provide low chlorine content products having excellent strength characteristics. | 03-21-2013 |

In this regard, the composition contains a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer and a laser activatable additive. The specific nature of the polymer and relative concentration of the polymer and additive are selectively controlled so that the resulting composition can possess both a relatively high melt viscosity and melt strength. | 05-22-2014 |
20150173564 | Metal Detectable Liquid Crytalline Polymer Composition - A melt-extrudable polymer composition that contains a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, non-metallic filler, and metallic filler is provided. The composition is particularly well suited for forming cooking articles (e.g., cookware, bakeware, etc.). When incorporated into such an article, for instance, the metallic filler in polymer composition can be readily detected (e.g., by a metal detector), which in turn allows any foodstuffs prepared with the article to be tested for possible contamination. In addition, the specific nature of the liquid crystalline polymer and relative concentration of the non-metallic and metallic fillers are also selectively controlled so that the resulting composition can possess a relatively high degree of melt viscosity and/or melt strength, which allows the composition to better maintain its shape during melt extrusion. | 06-25-2015 |
20150274965 | Laminate for a Printed Circuit Board - A laminate that contains a film on which one or more conductive elements are disposed is provided. The film is formed from a polymer composition that contains an aromatic polyester and an additive that is “laser-activatable” in the sense that it can be activated by a laser direct structuring (“LDS”) process. By selectively controlling the nature of the polymer composition and its respective components, the present inventors have discovered that a film can be readily formed that has good heat resistance, yet is also capable of exhibiting good adhesion to the conductive elements due to the fact that such elements can be integrally formed on the film using an LDS process. | 10-01-2015 |
