Patent EP-2177238-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NYMAN MARTIN
IPC: A61L31/10
Filed: 2008-10-14
Abstract: There is disclosed a medical device, such as a urinary catheter, comprising a substrate material, a hydrophilic surface coating, e.g. comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), arranged on at least a part of the surface of said substrate material, and an antibacterial layer comprising oligodynamic metal arranged between the substrate material and the hydrophilic surface coating. Further, the hydrophilic surface coating has a thickness large enough to provide a controlled release of oligodynamic metal ions through the hydrophilic surface coating, such as a thickness when dry that exceeds 3 µm. Hereby, the variation in the release of the oligodynamic metal ions is significantly reduced, enabling an improved control of the release. A corresponding method is also disclosed.

Inventor: MCCARTHY WIL
IPC: C03C17/23
Filed: 2008-01-24
Abstract: A thermally switched optical downconverting (TSOD) filter (100) is a self regulating device including a downconverter (102) that converts incoming light at a variety of wavelengths into longer wavelength radiation and then directs it using one or more bandblock filters (101, 103) in either the inward or outward direction, depending on the temperature of the device. This control over the flow of radiant energy occurs independently of the thermal conductivity or insulating properties of the device and may or may not preserve the image and color properties of incoming visible light. The TSOD filter (100) has energy efficiency implications, as it can be used to regulate the internal temperature and illumination of buildings, vehicles, and other structures without the need for an external power supply or operator signals. The TSOD filter (100) also has aesthetic implications, since the device has unique optical properties that are not found in traditional windows, skylights, stained glass, light fixtures, glass blocks, bricks, or walls. The TSOD filter (100) has particular, but not exclusive, application as a building material.
