Estimating the term…
Material comprising sub-micrometer particles dispersed in a polymeric matrix. The materials are useful in article, for example, for numerous applications including display applications (e.g., liquid crystal displays (LCD), light emitting diode (LED) displays, or plasma displays); light extraction; electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, ophthalmic lenses; face shielding lenses or films; window films; antireflection for construction applications; and construction applications or traffic signs.
A material comprising sub-micrometer particles dispersed in a polymeric matrix, wherein the material has a major surface, wherein the sub-micrometer particles have particle sizes of at least 75 nm, wherein a portion of the sub-micrometer particles protrude from the major surface by up to 90 percent of their respective particle sizes, wherein the protruding sub-micrometer particles each have an exposed outer surface, wherein less than 50 percent of the exposed outer surface is covered by organic material.
A material comprising sub-micrometer particles dispersed in a polymeric matrix, wherein the material has a major surface, wherein the sub-micrometer particles have particle sizes of at least 75 nm, wherein a portion of the sub-micrometer particles protrude from the major surface in a range from 50 nm to 200 nm, and wherein a portion of the sub-micrometer particles protrude from the major surface by up to 90 percent of their respective particle sizes.
A material comprising sub-micrometer particles dispersed in a polymeric matrix, wherein the material has a major surface, wherein a portion of the sub-micrometer particles protrude from the major surface by up to 90 percent of their respective particle sizes, and wherein the sub-micrometer particles are covalently bonded to the polymeric matrix.
