| 20080290326 | Controlled alignment of catalytically grown nanostructures in a large-scale synthesis process - Systems and methods are described for controlled alignment of catalytically grown nanostructures in a large-scale synthesis process. A method includes: generating an electric field proximate an edge of a protruding section of an electrode, the electric field defining a vector; and forming an elongated nanostructure located at a position on a surface of a substrate, the position on the surface of the substrate proximate the edge of the protruding section of the electrode, at least one tangent to the elongated nanostructure i) substantially parallel to the vector defined by the electric field and ii) substantially non-parallel to a normal defined by the surface of the substrate. | 11-27-2008 |

| 20090004252 | Skin Coating Composition and Uses Thereof - The present invention relates to a composition for coating the skin wherein the composition forms a water-proof flexible film on the skin. Preferably, the flexible film is durable and is capable of remaining adhered to the skin for 1 to 3 days. The composition may include (i) one or more pigments and/or dyes, or (ii) one or more sunscreen agents or (iii) one or more therapeutic agents for preventing or treating disorders of the skin. The coating composition comprises resin and flexibilizer (platicizer). Any suitable type of natural or synthetic resin may be used, preferably the resin is shellac or other natural gum derivative. A suitable flexiblizer is an animal, vegetable, mineral or synthetic oil, preferably castor oil, pine oil, rosehip oil or soya bean oil or mixture thereof. The composition optionally includes a diluent such as ethanol, a cellulosic preparation such as ethyl cellulose, an anti-agglomerating or dispersing agent and a thickener. The composition may be in the form of a paste, cream, gel, liquid or aerosol and may be used as a bandage or artificial skin. | 01-01-2009 |

| 20100297043 | SKIN COATING COMPOSITION AND USES THEREOF - A composition for coating skin comprising shellac, ethanol, castor oil, ethyl cellulose and fumed silica or nano zinc oxide, wherein the composition forms a long lasting waterproof flexible film on skin. The composition may include different ingredients for different applications. In one embodiment, the composition includes pigment and/or dye and may be used to coat a skin blemish such that the skin blemish blends in with the surrounding skin. In another embodiment, the composition includes a sunscreen agent and may be used as a sunscreen. In yet another embodiment, the composition includes a therapeutic agent for treating a disorder of the skin. | 11-25-2010 |
