A device for the manual metering of a medical fluid, such as a hardening resin of the bone cement type, comprises a chamber for the fluid to be metered (2, 102) with an end opening (6), a gripping handle (7, 107), a piston (10, 110) which is housed in the chamber (2, 102) and provided with an operating member (12) for a user, and screw-type actuating means (13) arranged in between the operating member (12) and the piston (10) so as to perform the longitudinal movement thereof and pressurise the fluid to be metered. The screw means (13) may be modified so as to change from an operative configuration, where the piston is fed micrometrically, to an inoperative configuration, where the piston may move freely. The screw means (13) comprise an outer thread (14, 114) associated with the piston (10) and a female-thread element (15, 115) formed integrally on the handle (7, 107); the handle may be deformed elastically by means of transverse compression so as to change the screw means (13) from their operative configuration to their inoperative configuration.

A high performance multifunctional cementitious nanocomposite material is made by adding a nano admixture to the water used in a conventional cementitious material manufacturing process. The nano admixture is made by dispersing nanomaterials in a solvent and sonicating the mixture, adding a hydrophilic emulsifier, thickener, additive or cellulose derived compound to hot water, where it separates and expands, cooling the water, causing the compound to dissolve, and then adding the solvent and nanomaterial mixture to the water and mechanically mixing. The contact between the nanomaterials and the surrounding matrix changes with applied stress, affecting the volume electrical response of the finished nanocomposite material. By measuring the electrical resistance of the material, its structural health, as well as the stress applied to it, can be monitored. A bridge made with the material is monitored for structural integrity and for the weight, speed, and location of traffic over the bridge.

A method for shielding a substrate from electromagnetic interference is provided including providing an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding composition to the substrate. The EMI shielding composition comprises a reactive organic compound and a conductive filler that, during the cure of the organic compound, is capable of self-assembling into a heterogeneous structure comprised of a continuous, three-dimensional network of metal situated among (continuous or semi-continuous) polymer rich domains. The resulting composition has exceptionally high thermal and electrical conductivity.

Disclosed is an integrated graphene film-enhanced display device, comprising: (a) a display device which comprises one or multiple heat sources and a back surface where a localized area is at a higher temperature than an adjacent area; and (b) a heat spreader which comprises at least one sheet of integrated graphene film having two major surfaces, wherein one of the major surfaces of the heat spreader is in thermal contact with one or multiple heat sources and further wherein the heat spreader itself reduces the temperature difference between locations on the display device. The integrated graphene film, either a graphene film obtained from a graphene oxide gel or a graphene composite film formed of graphene oxide gel-bonded nano graphene platelets (NGPs), exhibits highest thermal conductivity and highest effectiveness in reducing hot spots in various kinds of display devices.

Described is an initial liquid composition with at least antimicrobial, antibacterial, and / or anti-viral properties comprising chelated metal oxide particles suspended in a polyol, such that metal oxide particles are homogeneously dispersed in the primarily liquid based polyol carrier and such that the chelated metal oxide particles form a stable complex suspension that can eventually become an alkaline based aqueous silver oxide dispersion. The suspension can be optionally further complexed with a combination of chitosan where the resulting metal oxide complex is provided in a concentration of between 0.1 and 25 weight percent. The liquid composition (with or without chitosan) can be subsequently added to essentially any polymer or polymer compound / system where the polymer degrades or melts at a temperature lower than the polyol carrier degradation or boiling temperature. The metal oxide complex may also impart beneficial semi-conductive or conductive as well as permeability and flammability property changes to the polymer (host) system. This technique allows for providing chelated metal oxide complexes to essentially any polymeric host without substantially altering the necessary physio-chemical properties of the original polymeric system. Use of the polyol chelated metal oxide complex additive carrier infused into a polymeric, food and / or beverage host is also included.
