Abstract:
Various embodiments are drawn to systems and methods for detecting an analyte of interest in a sample including an optical sensor, a capture probe attached to a surface of the optical sensor wherein the capture probe is capable of binding to the analyte to form a duplex or complex, and an antibody capable of binding to the analyte, duplex, or complex. In several embodiments, systems and methods further include a particle attached to the antibody or capable of binding to the antibody. In several embodiments, systems and methods for analyte detection feature one or more of the following: high detection sensitivity and specificity, scalability and multiplex capacity, ability to analyze large analytes, and ability to detect or measure multiple individual binding events in real-time.
A coated optical article includes: an optical substrate; a first coating layer applied directly over at least a portion of an optical substrate, the first coating layer formed from a first coating composition including an aqueous medium and keto and/or aldo functional polymeric materials that are dispersed in the aqueous medium; and a second coating layer applied directly over at least a portion of the first coating layer, the second coating layer including a sol-gel and which is formed from a second coating composition. The first coating composition and second coating composition are each independently substantially free of hydrazine and hydrazide functional components.

A coating composition includes: (a) a carboxylic acid functional polyol polymer; (b) a melamine-formaldehyde crosslinker reactive with the carboxylic acid functional polyol polymer; (c) an acid catalyst; and (d) a non-aqueous liquid medium. The carboxylic acid functional polyol polymer has an acid value within a range of from 30 to 120 mg KOH/g and a hydroxyl value within a range of from 60 to 150 mg KOH/g. The melamine-formaldehyde crosslinker includes imino and methylol groups that together make up 35 mole % or less of the total functionality of the melamine-formaldehyde crosslinker, and butyl groups and isobutyl groups that together make up 5 mole % or greater of the total functionality of the melamine-formaldehyde crosslinker. The coating composition cures at a temperature of 100 C. or less.

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to coated articles demonstrating a transmission of electromagnetic radiation having a frequency of 22 to 81 GHz in the range of 70% to 100%. The articles comprise substrates coated with curable film-forming compositions comprising a first film-forming polymer prepared from at least one hydrophobic monomer, a second film-forming polymer prepared from at least one hydrophobic monomer, and a curing agent. Upon application of the curable film-forming composition to the substrate to form a coating layer, the first film-forming polymer is distributed throughout the coating layer, and the concentration of the second film-forming polymer is greater at the surface of the coating layer than the concentration of the second film-forming polymer within the bulk of the coating layer. The present invention is also drawn to methods of mitigating contaminant build-up on a substrate using the curable film-forming compositions described above.
Thermally Curable Film-Forming Compositions Providing Benefits In Appearance And Sag Control Performance
Disclosed are thermally curable film-forming compositions comprising a binder, a flow control system comprising a sag control agent, and less than 5.0 wt.-% of melamine-based components, based on the total weight of resin solids in the film-forming composition, as well as methods for forming a cured coating on a substrate and substrates comprising the cured coating layer.

Burgman - Wexford PA, US Justin Jones - Cranberry Township PA, US Bin Cao - Pittsburgh PA, US Hongying Zhou - Allison Park PA, US Danielle Kirby - Wexford PA, US
A curable film-forming composition is provided, comprising: (a) a polymeric binder comprising reactive functional groups; (b) a curing agent comprising functional groups that are reactive with the reactive functional groups of (a); and (c) a polysiloxane resin comprising aromatic functional groups and terminal active hydrogen groups. In certain examples of the present invention, the polymeric binder (a) comprises an acrylic polyol prepared from a monomer mixture comprising a hydroxyl functional monomer, and the curable film-forming composition further comprises a rheology modifier comprising: (1) a non-aqueous dispersion of an internally crosslinked organic polymer; (2) a silica dispersion; and/or (3) a reaction product of an amine and an isocyanate. Also provided are coated substrates that include the curable film-forming compositions described above and methods for forming a composite coating on a substrate.
