In the method, a polymerizable inorganic monomer is reacted in the presence of nanocrystalline cellulose to give a material of inorganic solid with cellulose nanocrystallites organized in a chiral nematic organization. The cellulose can be carbonized through thermal treatment under inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) and the silica may subsequently be removed using aqueous solutions of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or hydrogen fluoride (HF) to give the stable mesoporous carbon materials that retain the chiral nematic structure of the cellulose.

The coated amphiphilic protein functions as an “ink receiving layer”. | 06-09-2016 |

20160183700 | Medical Blankets - Described is an improved polypropylene blanket constructed entirely of man-made fiber with a cotton-like hand. The improved polypropylene blanket provides longer life and low cost per usage due to its high thermal insulation, high strength and high abrasion resistance. This results in a blanket with a fast drying time that conserves energy and proves more durable than cotton-rich products. The blanket is soil resistant that attracts less dirt and dust, is resistant to fungi, molds and mildew and wicks away perspiration from the skin. | 06-30-2016 |
