Teflon is molecularly bonded to the metal with heat, just a short answer version

Henderson, Nevada - October 10, 2005- Emergency Filtration Products, Inc., (EFP) (OTCBB: EMFP) today announced that it is\nplanning to increase production of its NanoMask due to a surge in demand. The company has placed an initial order for the\nproduction of 500,000 filters from a West Coast based supplier. The filters, which are expected to be manufactured within the\nnext several weeks, will then be shipped to EFP’s Henderson, Nevada facility where they will be enhanced with nanoparticles \nand packaged. \n\nConcurrently, the company expects to receive 50,000 mask shells from Taiwan and has placed an initial order for an additional\n100,000 mask shells from its Taiwanese supplier. At the first stage of its production ramp up, EFP expects be able to assemble\nup to 50,000 masks and nano-enhance 200,000 filters per week. The final assembly will be done in Henderson as soon as EFP\nreceives the filters and mask shells. EFP plans to further increase its production capacity as demand dictates.\n\n“ Over the past few weeks we have experienced a strong increase in orders for the NanoMask, which we believe is due to the \ngrowing threat of a possible avian flu pandemic,” said Douglas K. Beplate, President, EFP. “As a result, and due to a number of \npotentially large orders from a number of medical products distributors in the United States and abroad, we are gearing up \nproduction capacity to meet the growing demand for the NanoMask.” \n\nAbout the NanoMask®\n\nhttp://www.emergencyfiltration.com/Products/NanoMask.htm\n\nEFP's nano-particle enhanced environmental mask, the NanoMask® relies on the company's core 2H Technology™ filtration\nsystem, which utilizes a combination of hydrophobic and hydrophilic filters able to capture, isolate and or eradicate bacterial \nand viral microorganisms with efficiencies of 99.9%.  EFP applies nano-particles to the filters to enhance filtration efficiency.\nThe nano-particles augment the intrinsic filtration efficiency of the media by acting as a destructive absorbent, eradicating\nvirus and bacteria that come in contact with the filtration system. \n\nAbout Emergency Filtration Products, Inc.: \n\nEFP is an air filtration products manufacturer who's patented 2H Technology™ filter system has produced filtration efficiencies\nof 'greater than 99.99%' at a particulate size of 0.027 microns. EFP's initial products were developed for the medical market:\nthe Vapor Isolation Valve™ and RespAide® CPR Isolation Mask used for resuscitation of respiratory/cardiac arrest cases; and\n2H Breathing Circuit Filter for ventilators, respirators and anesthesia circuitry. Each has received FDA approval. The Company \nalso markets an Automated External Defibrillator Prep Kit featuring RespAide; and the NanoMask®, a nanotechnology enhanced\nenvironmental mask. In addition to filtration products, the company supplies Superstat®, a modified hemostatic collagen, to the\nU.S. Military for surgery and extreme wound care.\n\nSafe Harbor Statement: \n\nThis release may contain statements that are forward looking. Such statements are made based upon current expectations that\nare subject to risk and uncertainty. EFP does not undertake to update forward-looking statements in this news release to reflect \nactual results of and changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking information. The actual \nfuture results of the company could differ significantly from such forward-looking statements. Specifically, successful production\nof the NanoMask products may not translate into significant sales. Sales may be dependent on the success of future marketing\ncampaigns, the signing of definitive agreements with additional distributors, and both the perceived need for EFP's products and\nthe competitive performance of such products in the marketplace. \n\nFor Further Information on EFP:\n\nEmergency Filtration Products:\nPhone: 702/558-5164\nFax: 70

ionic,the diference in electronegativity values is greater then 1.6.  the metal bonded to a non metal method is also correct

There used to be product on the market called "Letraset" (It may still be available) which consisted of self-addesive black letters on a clear plastic backing sheet. I used the system to label electronic projects a few years ago. For best results, a coating of clear laquer is sprayed on once the letters have been positioned. I don't know how well the system will withstand the wear and tear of a computer keyboard (even with a laquer coating) and you may find using this method more expensive than buying a new keyboard...

There are thousands of polymers all with very different chemical and physical properties.  so a simple answer can not be given.  perhaps a specific polymer would obtain better responses.

Thermoset polymers are called resins. When something is glass filled the glass is in fiberous form. So, in fact, Zytel glass filled thermoset polymer is just a type of glass fibre impregnated resin.\n\nDuPony's website will have the properties of there material.\n\nMy guess is that DuPont have a propriorty bonding agent on their glass to get improved adhesion and the obvious benefits to creep resistence and fracture dynamics that that would impart.

Dow Chemical Co. makes the polymer...contact them for a list of suppliers.\nIt is also available from some chemical supply houses and specialty polymer distributors...try M2 Polymer Technologies, eg.

cellophane is a plastic but not all plastics are cellophane.   Nylon is a plastic. Teflon is a plastic. etc...\n\nMaking Cellophane\n\nIn the manufacturing process, an alkaline solution of cellulose fibres (usually wood or cotton) known as viscose is extruded through a narrow slit into an acid bath. The acid regenerates the cellulose, forming a film. Further treatment, such as washing and bleaching, yields cellophane.

Usually it's poly-ethylene glycol.  It's just a big organic molecule that has some polarity.  It also ususually a coloring agent in it.  There are various brands that add other things, but this is the basic composition.

I haven't tried this, but often the best people to answer these type of questions are the companies that make the membranes. For protein work we use a number of different types of membrane including nitrocellulose and PVDF. \nI have not heard of people electroblotting RNA, regular capillary blotting is most commonly used. You could try the following website for some info (but try some other manufacturers as well).\n\nhttp://www6.amershambiosciences.com/aptrix/upp01151.nsf/Content/e-tech_support_homePage

try the site http://vivisimo.com it's a meta search engine\ntype in "energetic polymers" and you will get your results!

hmm...do i detect a slight hint of webassign?\n\nammonium chloride(NH1+ and Cl1-) that should tell you enough.\n\nAnd for polyethylene, let's just say it's non-polar...how much does that help? (provided that hydrogen bonding is a special form of dipole-dipole, and dipole moments only happen in polar molecule)
