20080316564Display Devices - A flexible display comprises a flexible dielectric layer (12-25-2008
20100068387INK FOR PRINTING ON LOW ENERGY SUBSTRATES - The invention provides an aqueous inkjet ink composition comprises a polymeric compound comprising discrete particles responsive to an external stimulus, and a functional material, wherein the functional material may be incorporated as part of the polymeric particles, the particles causing the composition to have a first rheological state and a different second rheological state in response to a stimulated change in conditions, the first rheological state being associated with a first lower viscosity of the composition, wherein the particles have a first lower volume, enabling the composition to pass through an inkjet printhead orifice and the second rheological state being associated with a second higher viscosity of the composition, wherein the particles have a second higher volume, enabling immobilisation of droplets of the composition on a substrate. The inkjet composition is particularly useful in a continuous inkjet printing system for printing onto a wide range of surfaces including impermeable surfaces.03-18-2010
20100170957MONODISPERSE DROPLET GENERATION - A method of creating substantially monodisperse droplets comprising supplying a first fluid (07-08-2010
20100188462METHOD OF CONTINUOUS INKJET PRINTING - A liquid jet is ejected out of a nozzle, the liquid comprising one or more components, the flow of one or more of said components, the active components, being separated such that the liquid that flows within a boundary layer thickness δ, of the nozzle wall is substantially comprised of a liquid without the active components, the continuous phase, and the said active components flow substantially outside said boundary layer where δ is defined by formula (I): where μ is the continuous phase viscosity in Pa·s, U is the jet velocity in m/s ρ is the continuous phase density in kg/m3 and x is the length of the nozzle in m in the direction of flow.07-29-2010
