Reinforced composites containing cellulosic pulp fibers dispersed in a matrix, wherein the matrix comprises a thermoplastic polymeric material melting above 180° C. and the cellulosic pulp fibers have an alpha-cellulose purity greater than 80% by weight. Methods of making and using the reinforced composites.

A light diffusing film for a back light display is described. The light diffusing film includes a unitary film consisting essentially of polycarbonate and a uniformly dispersed anti-static material in an amount sufficient to impart anti-static properties to the film. The anti-static material may comprise a fluorinated phosphonium sulfonate. The film may additionally include at least one textured surface for the low scattering of light. Alternatively, the film may additionally include a uniformly dispersed acrylic bulk scattering additive of particles having a mean particle size of from about 3 to about 10 microns and present in an amount from about 2 to about 7 percent by weight percent for the high scattering of light.

The invention includes a method of conditioning fabrics, comprising contacting fabric with a liquid composition comprising an amino-functional silicone and a quaternary ammonium, and drying said fabric at 200 degrees F. or greater. The invention includes a method of conditioning fabrics, comprising washing fabric in a detergent having a wash pH of greater than 10, contacting fabric with a liquid composition comprising an amino-functional silicone and a quaternary ammonium, and drying said fabric at less than 200 degrees F. The invention further provides a method of conditioning fabrics wherein softness, anti-static, and anti-wrinkle properties are imparted to the fabric wherein the conditioned fabric resists yellowing in industrial and institutional conditions wherein the wash pH is greater than 9 and / or the fabric temperature is 200 degrees Fahrenheit or greater.

According to an aspect of the present inventive concept, this and other objects are achieved by a lighting system (100) for illuminating an article (112) comprising: a lighting device (102) arranged to emit light (103) towards the article (112), wherein a spectrum of the emitted light (103) is controllable. The lighting system (100) further comprises a controller (104) configured to control the lighting device (102) responsive to detection of presence or movement of an object (110) within a detection zone (108) associated with the article (112). The controller (104) is configured to: control the lighting device (102) to emit light (103) having a first spectrum in response to absence of an object (110) or movement of an object (110) within the detection zone (108), and control the lighting device (102) to emit light having a second spectrum in response to presence of an object (110) or movement of an object (110) within the detection zone (108). The light having the first spectrum presents, in at least one wavelength interval, a lower power than the light having the second spectrum. Moreover the light having the first spectrum and the light having the second spectrum provide a corresponding level of illumination of the article (112).
