An alignment film coating method is provided, and includes steps of: supplying alignment film solution to a coating roller at a first end of a machine table; placing a first substrate on the machine table; moving the coating roller from the first end to a second end of the machine table; supplying alignment film solution to the coating roller at the second end of the machine table; taking the first substrate down from the machine table, and placing a second substrate on the machine table; and, linearly moving the coating roller from the second end to the first end of the machine table.

When on flat glass elements an anti-corrosion agent and a separation agent, containing a powdery anti-corrosion agent and a powdery separation agent, is applied with the anti-corrosion agent and the separation agent being jointly applied on at least one side of the flat glass elements, the partial quantities of the powdery separation agent and the powdery anti-corrosion agent can be dosed according to requirement without causing an excess of separation agent or a shortage of anti-corrosion agent by holding ready and dosing the said anti-corrosion agent and separation agent independently from each other and by blending them together only after dosing.

Polypropylene (PP) superhydrophobic sheets and a fabrication method using a stream of polypropylene from plastic waste thereof are provided. Superhydrophobic PP sheets of varying thickness having a base layer and a top layer may be fabricated using recycled or waste polypropylene, where the fabrication process uses 20% of total plastic waste to prepare said sheets having contact angles ranging from 140 to 160 degrees. The polypropylene superhydrophobic sheets may impart protective water-repellent properties against the elements.

A process for the preparation of a coated substrate is described, in which a substrate is coated with a coating mixture containing a polymer and an amino acid-modified layered double hydroxide. The process of the invention is markedly simpler than conventional techniques for affording coated substrates having reduced permeability to degradative gases. The coated substrates obtainable by the process are particularly useful in packaging applications, notably in the food industry.

The invention relates to systems and techniques for manufacturing articles containing cellulosic material, a tackifier, and a binder, and related processes of making and using the cellulosic articles. In particularly exemplary embodiments, the manufactured articles are door skins, sometimes known as door facings, and doors made from the door skins. The article contains a lipophilic cellulosic material, a tackifier, and a binder.

A method of coating a donor surface with a layer of thermoplastic particles, the method comprising: providing a supply of the thermoplastic particles suspended in a fluid, applying the fluid to the donor surface, in a manner to cause the particles suspended in the fluid to form a substantially continuous particle coating on the donor surface, causing fluid flow within an interior plenum of a housing over a portion of the donor surface partially disposed therein, the fluid flow being of sufficient magnitude to entrain particles that are not in direct contact with the donor surface and insufficient to entrain particles that are in direct contact therewith; and extracting from the plenum fluid and particles which are not in not direct contact with the donor surface, so as to leave adhering to the donor surface a particle coating that is substantially only a single particle deep.
