Steel sheet coating compositions or polymeric resin or ceramic properties are produced by admixing an aluminum coordinate complex and an aluminum resin, a polysilazane as a source of silicon, an organic solvent, an organic synthesis catalyst, and a non-metallic, non-ionic, low-nucleophilic base. The admixed coating is applied to sheet steel prior to hot-stamping in order to inhibit formation of iron oxides and to improve steel sheet surface characteristics.

Disclosed is a non-stick coating for an article, particularly for a baking pan or other household and utility item, comprises at least a base layer (G) burnt onto a surface (O) of the article and a covering layer (D) burnt above the base layer. The base layer and the covering layer each have a dry film thickness of 1 to 25 ?m, wherein the base layer contains 10 to 100 wt.-%, related to the weight of the burnt base layer, of a thermoplastic resin having a temperature resistance exceeding 200? C., and wherein the covering layer contains a thermoplastic resin having a temperature resistance exceeding 200? C. and optionally a silicone resin. Both the base layer and also the covering layer are free of perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl compounds. Due to the fact that the covering layer comprises a content of thermoplastic resin of at least 30 wt.-%, related to the weight of the burnt covering layer, and of at least 2.5 wt.-%, related to the weight of the burnt covering layer, of a silicone oil, novel fluorine-free non-stick coatings with good substrate adhesion and very good deep-drawing properties are obtained. In a process for applying the non-stick coating, the base layer to be formed is applied as a liquid varnish onto the surface of the article and subsequently dried at 250 to 440? C., subsequently the covering layer is applied as liquid varnish onto the predried base layer, and finally the layers are bonded to each other and to the surface of the article by means of heat treatment at 250 to 440? C.

A coated steel sheet has a coating film on at least one side of a plated steel sheet. The coating film contains a binder resin, non-oxide ceramic particles containing V (excluding VC particles), and doped zinc oxide particles. The respective contents of the non-oxide ceramic particles containing V and the doped zinc oxide particles relative to the coating film satisfy the expressions: [(1) C.sub.Zn10.0, (2) C.sub.V0.5.Math.C.sub.Zn, (3) C.sub.V70C.sub.Zn, (4) C.sub.V0.125.Math.C.sub.Zn, and (5) C.sub.V2.0], where C.sub.V represents the content (mass %) of the non-oxide ceramic particles containing V, and C.sub.Zn represents the content (mass %) of the doped zinc oxide particles. The coated steel sheet is excellent in both corrosion resistance before electrodeposition coating, and weldability.

A coating apparatus is provided. The coating apparatus includes a coater, configured to move and perform coating along a first direction, the coater includes a coating head and a coating head movement mechanism, the coating head movement mechanism is configured to make the coating head move along a plane intersected with the first direction and rotate in the plane intersected with the first direction.

The helix shaped induction coil includes a first array of parallel current-carrying wires and a second array of return current carrying wires. A magnetic shielding sheet is placed between the first array of parallel current-carrying wires and the second array of return current carrying wires. The magnetic shield sheet magnetically shields the first array of parallel current-carrying wires from the second array of return current carrying wires.

Unexpectedly unique and environmentally friendly composite material structures, storage articles fabricated therefrom, and related methods. The composite structure includes at least one or more fiber-containing layers, such as fiberboard or other layers having fibers from natural and/or synthetic sources, and one or more mineral-containing layers. The mineral-containing layer(s) comprises a thermoplastic bonding agent fixing the mineral particles in place. The fiber-containing layer(s) and mineral-containing layer(s) can be shaped, sized, and manufactured such that the composite structure formed therefrom is capable of being machined to form the storage article. The composite structure can be repulped and recycled without the use of dispersions, emulsions, or aqueous solutions. Further, the composite reduces layer mass requirements for heat seal, barrier, and fiber adhesion compared to polymer layers. The composite structure further has tensile strength and other structural characteristics that allow it to be readily machined into desired storage article forms.
