A coating composition and a method for coating metallic substrates, such as aircraft components exposed to elevated temperatures and/or oxidative conditions. The coating composition includes an aqueous mixture having about 2 vol % to about 50 vol % organosilane, about 0.3 to about 25 vol % metal alkoxide, and about 0.1 to about 30 vol % organic complexing agent. The coating composition may be deposited on a metallic substrate and cured to form a sol-gel coating on the surface of the substrate that is adherent to the substrate, and oxidation and discoloration resistant.

A process of forming a building product can include providing a first layer having a first material, and providing a second layer having a second material that different from the first material, wherein the second layer has pores. The process can further include infiltrating a fluid into the pores of the second layer while the first layer is present and adjacent to the second layer, wherein the fluid includes a carbonate. The process can still further include reacting the carbonate with a metal compound within the second layer to form a metal carbonate within the second layer. In another aspect, a building product can include a first layer having a first material, and a second layer having a second material and a third material that includes a metal carbonate. The first material can be different from the second material, and the second and third materials can include the same metal element.

A method of producing a veneered element, including providing a substrate, applying a sub-layer on a surface of the substrate, applying a veneer layer on the sub-layer, and applying pressure to the veneer layer and/or the substrate, such that at least a portion of the sub-layer permeates through the veneer layer. Also, such a veneered element.

An electrically conductive thin film including a compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 and having a layered crystal structure
Re.sub.2C  Chemical Formula 1
wherein Re is a lanthanide. Also an electronic device including the electrically conductive thin film.

Provided is a circuit substrate, including a glass film (10) forming a rough layer (11) after surface roughness processing, a resin adhesion (20) located the rough layer (11) on either side of the glass film (10), and a metal foil (30) located on the outside of resin adhesion layer (20). The glass film (10), the resin adhesion layer (20) and the metal foil (30) are joined together through suppressing. The circuit substrate employs the glass film (10) which forms a rough layer (11) after surface roughness processing as a carrier material, so that the resin adhesion layer (20) and the surface of the glass film (10) have a good binding force, and the dielectric constant of the circuit substrate has slight difference in the directions of X, Y and Z. Also provided is manufacturing method for a circuit substrate.

A heat ray-shielding material including a metal particle-containing layer containing at least one kind of metal particle. The metal particle contains substantially hexagonal or substantially discoidal metallic flat particles in an amount of 60% by number or more. The main planes of the metallic flat particles are oriented at an angle ranging from 0° to ±30° relative to one surface of the metal particle-containing layer.

A highly structured composite material, which can be applied and cured as a protective layer on corroding metal substrates, particularly on steel is provided. Due to its highly structured composition it is a particularly effective barrier to protect metals against attack by corrosive substances such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide and sea water, if necessary under hydrothermal conditions. At the same time it is also abrasion stable, for example against a grinding effect by sand, as well as resistant to the impact of mechanical load e.g. by tools. This is achieved by a coating composition comprising a binder comprising at least one cross-linkable resin, wherein the resin comprises at least one of polar group; at least one type of hydrophilic flakes with an aspect ratio of more than 10, wherein the surface of the flakes at least partially comprises a metal oxide; and an organic solvent.

A reactive pressure sensitive adhesive composition is disclosed. A tape formed using the reactive pressure sensitive adhesive is also disclosed. In its cured state, the pressure sensitive adhesive shows superior mechanical and electrical properties compared to conventional, non-curable charge collection tapes. The tape has a cure profile pre-selected to correspond to that of a photovoltaic cell fabrication process, such that curing can take place during cell fabrication and may occur simultaneously with one or more other curing steps employed in cell fabrication.

A method for coating a metal substrate with a white, off-white or gray colored autodeposited coating comprising water, polymeric resin, HF and pigment particles comprising a core of titanium dioxide, an intermediate zirconia and/or alumina layer, and an outer organic layer, optionally the particles are treated with an anionic surfactant.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a luster coating composition which can form a pearl color coating when used on automobile bodies, characterized in that bluish interference is insignificant in a highlight of the coating film, a yellowish transparent color is weak in a shade of the coating film and the white color development of the white base coating film is visible in every direction. The present invention provides a luster coating composition comprising an interference luster pigment and a titanium dioxide pigment, wherein a volume average particle size D90 of the titanium dioxide pigment is within a range of 700 to 1200 nm, and a volume average particle size D50 of the titanium dioxide pigment is within a range of 250 to 900 nm, and a mass ratio of the interference luster pigment and the titanium dioxide pigment is within a range of 10/1 to 5/1 represented in the mass ratio “the interference luster pigment/the titanium dioxide pigment”. The present invention further provides a multi layered coating film obtained by a method for producing a multi layered coating film in which the luster coating composition is used, and a multi layered coating film formed thereby.
