20130231620 | LEAK SENSOR - A dressing is provided for application to an object that is, at least partly, electrically conductive. The dressing includes an adhesive for attaching the dressing to the object, and at least two electrodes. The electrodes are adapted to be arranged at a distance from the partly electrically conductive object so that a first capacitor is formed between a first electrode and the partly electrically conductive object, and a second capacitor is formed between a second electrode and the partly electrically conductive object. | 09-05-2013 |
20150250639 | METHOD OF DETECTING DETACHMENT OF AN OSTOMY DEVICE FROM A PATIENT - A method of detecting detachment of an ostomy device from a patient includes providing, in the ostomy device, a first electrode separated from the patient by an adhesive that attaches the ostomy device to the patient, where a first capacitor is formed between the first electrode and the patient. The method includes applying a signal to an electrical circuit that includes the first capacitor, and detecting changes in a capacitance value of the first capacitor based on frequency responses of the electrical circuit to the signal. The method additionally includes activating an alarm based upon detecting the changes in the capacitance value of the first capacitor. | 09-10-2015 |

20100030167 | Leak Sensor - The present invention relates to a method and dressing for detecting detachment of the dressing, which is applied to a surface of an at least partly electrically conductive object. The dressing comprises an adhesive for attaching the dressing to the electrically conductive object and at least two electrodes arranged in a distance from the electrically conductive object. A voltage is applied to the first and second electrode establishing an electrical circuit comprising a first capacitor between the first electrode and the electrically conductive object and a second capacitor between the second electrode and the electrically conductive object. Changes of the capacitance between at least one of the first and the second electrode and the electrically conductive object are detected, and an alarm is activated when the changes of the capacitance reach a predetermined value. This advantageously provides a method whereby a leak can be detected quickly. Furthermore, this advantageously provides a leak sensor with no direct physical or mechanical contact between the electrically conductive object, e.g. the skin, and the electrodes. This provides for a dressing comprising a leak sensor without compromising the comfort of the user. | 02-04-2010 |

20090224431 | TRANSFERRING MATERIALS TO POLYMER SURFACES - A method of providing at least one heat sensitive material on at least part of a surface of a polymer article formed from a heated polymer whose temperature is sufficient to adversely affect the at least one heat sensitive material, wherein an at least partly textured shaping surface is provided. The heat sensitive material is applied to at least part of the shaping surface, the shaping surface being at a temperature at which the heat sensitive material is not adversely affected. The heated polymer is brought in contact with the shaping surface and formed by the surface shape of the shaping surface. The at least one heat sensitive material is transferred from the shaping surface to the polymer surface, while maintaining sufficiently low the temperature of the shaping surface so that the heat sensitive material is not substantially adversely affected by heat upon or after contact with the heated polymer. | 09-10-2009 |

20130101792 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING A NANOSTRUCTURED OR SMOOTH POLYMER ARTICLE - The present invention solves numerous problems in state-of-the-art industrial polymer shaping of micro and nanostructures. The problems of high tool polishing requirements, the inability to define an arbitrary topographical structure on an arbitrary free-form (curved) surface, limited durability and replication quality, as well as providing a convenient method for functionalizing the surface. The invention solves these problems by deploying a ceramic material precursor, which may be coated onto a conventional polymer shaping tool, micro- or nanostructured by mechanical contact (embossing), cured into a hard, durable ceramic material comprising the desired structures. The ceramic material is functionalisable by silane chemistry, due to its high surface density of —OH groups. This apparatus may then be used in a conventional polymer shaping process to make nanostructured polymer replicas. | 04-25-2013 |
20140154441 | Reactive Silicon Oxide Precursor Facilitated Anti-Corrosion Treatment - The present invention solves numerous problems in state-of-the-art industrial anti-corrosion protection by using a reactive silicon oxide precursor solution. Among the problems solved are those of decreased heat transfer over a protected surface, limited protection against high-temperature corrosive fluids and difficulties in protecting complex 3D geometries and surfaces with a high surface roughness. The present invention furthermore provides an easy way of making chemical surface functionalization using e.g. silane chemistry. The invention solves these problems by coating the surface of a ceramic or metallic part with a thin layer of a liquid solution of a reactive silicon oxide precursor (rSiO-p) such as Hydrogen Silsesquioxane (HSQ) in Methyl Isobytul Ketone (MIBK) or volatile methyl siloxane (VMS), heating the part to a curing temperature of the rSiO-p, and after a curing time the reactive silicon oxide precursor is transformed into a thin layer of essentially pin-hole free silicon oxide. | 06-05-2014 |
20150197455 | SPIN-ON-GLASS ASSISTED POLISHING OF ROUGH SUBSTRATES - A method produces a smooth surface on a rough substrate. The rough substrate is coated with a film or particles of spin-on-glass (SOG) dissolved in a solvent using spin coating, spray coating or dip coating. The SOG is made to reflow by using thermal melting and solvent thinning. The reflow is done in an atmosphere containing a partial pressure of the solvent. The reflow allows the SOG to partially melt and to decrease the surface roughnesss of the film. The SOG is cured by thermal curing or UV exposure radiation curing into a hard durable and chemical inert silicon dioxide film. The SOG can be hydrogen silsesquioxane or methyl silsesquioxane dissolved in either methyl isobutyl ketone or volatile methyl siloxanes. The method can include embossing, chemical mechanical polishing, etching and functionalizing the surface. The substrate can be a cast, mould or form for producing a polymer or a glass replica. | 07-16-2015 |

20120040455 | CURVED POLYHEDRONS - The present invention relates to a polymer article having the shape of a curved polyhedron comprising only concave curvature faces and convex curvature edges or by also having concave curvature faces, in which a part of the concave curvature face has been replaced by a flat face, and convex curvature edges optionally comprising imbedded material. Another aspect of the present invention regards the use of said polymer article as well as a process for the production of such a polymer article | 02-16-2012 |

20150257923 | OSTOMY APPLIANCE HAVING AN ELECTRODE - An ostomy appliance includes a first adhesive having a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The first surface is provided to contact a partly electrically conductive object. The appliance also includes a first layer situated on the second surface of the first adhesive, and a first electrode situated on the first layer and electrically isolated from the first adhesive. | 09-17-2015 |
