Described herein are textured glass-based articles. The textured glass based articles may include a glass-based substrate including a first major surface and a second major surface. At least a portion of one or both of the first major surface and the second major surface is textured, wherein the portion of the one or both of the first major surface and the second major surface that are textured may have a sparkle at 140 ppi of less than or equal to 5% and an uncoupled distinctness-of-image of at least 78%. Methods for making such articles are also described herein.

A glass-based article with a textured surface exhibiting low haze is provided. The glass-based articles are produced by utilizing a combination of abrasion and etching, where hydrofluoric acid is not utilized. The process for producing the glass-based articles also includes an ion exchange process.

The present application includes methods, apparatuses, and systems for cleaning an aluminum wheel. In particular instances, a method of treating an exterior surface of an aluminum vehicle wheel comprising: blasting the exterior surface a first occurrence for a first duration at a first velocity using blasting media; blasting the exterior surface a second occurrence for a second duration at a second velocity using blasting media after blasting the exterior surface for a first duration, the second velocity being substantially lower than the first velocity; and, arranging the vehicle wheel in contact with vibratory finishing media and vibrating the vehicle wheel with the vibratory finishing media for a duration after blasting the exterior surface in each of the first and second occurrences.

Provided is a forming system including: a forming device including a fluid supply unit that supplies a fluid to a heated metal pipe material, and a forming die that forms a formed product by bringing an expanded metal pipe material into contact with a forming surface; a machining unit that machines the formed product removed from the forming die; and a scale removing unit that removes scales from the formed product machined by the machining unit.

The portable apparatus for cleaning surfaces comprises a tank (2) associated with a base (3), said tank (2) comprising at least one couple of chambers (5) predisposed to contain respective abrasive materials, said chambers (5) being hermetically separated from one another; at least one couple of mixing valves (13) associated with said base (3) and connected with respective said chambers (5) each said mixing valve (13) being predisposed to receive said abrasive material contained in said respective chamber (5) and to mix said abrasive material with a predetermined amount of compressed air.

The present invention is to provide an antibacterial molded article that can increase options for the material and shape of the molded article, and a method for manufacturing the same. The object is achieved by an antibacterial molded article containing a plastic molded article, the plastic molded article having a rough region having an arithmetic average roughness Ra of a roughness curve in accordance with JIS B 0601 (2013) of 0.14 μm or greater and 0.72 μm or less provided on a surface with which bacteria can come into contact.

Some methods for making a granular material comprise crushing demetallized slag particles with one or more crushers and screening the crushed demetallized slag particles with one or more screens to separate the demetallized slag particles into two or more fractions, the granular material comprising at least one of the fractions of the demetallized slag particles. Prior to the crushing, ones of the demetallized slag particles having a size that is less than or equal to 2 inches can account for at least 90% of the demetallized slag particles. An iron-compound content of the demetallized slag particles, by weight, can be less than or equal to 10%. Crushing and screening can be performed such that ones of the demetallized slag particles of the granular material having a size that is less than or equal to 1.25 mm account for at least 90% of the demetallized slag particles of the granular material.
