A blow molded article comprising a housing defining a hollow interior. The housing comprises a blow molded thermoplastic polymer and a thermoplastic elastomer on a portion of the blow molded thermoplastic polymer. The thermoplastic elastomer is polar and hydrophilic. A coefficient of friction of the thermoplastic elastomer when wet is higher than a coefficient of friction of the blow molded thermoplastic polymer when wet.

Wet friction material for blow molded articles

Aqueous based shear-thinning ink compositions and ball-point pens including the ink compositions. The ink compositions have a shear thinning index of from about 0.01 to about 0.6 and include colorant material(s) and a water dispersible, polymeric shear-thinning material substantially uniformly dispersed in a highly polar solvent system in which water is the primary solvent for the shear-thinning material.

Ball-point writing instrument containing an aqueous ink composition

Novel, improved aqueous based, shock resistant, shear-thinning ink compositions and writing instruments including the ink compositions. The ink compositions comprise a substantially uniform dispersion of colorant(s), a water dispersible polymeric shear-thinning material and a substantially water insoluble polymeric material in a polar solvent system.

Shock resistant ink compositions and writing instruments including the

Gelled, aqueous inks are used in conjunction with viscoelastic ink follower compositions to avoid the necessity of using a fibrous ink reservoir or a porous or extruded ink feed rod.
