A method for creating a carbon nanotube heater assembly includes creating a carbon nanotube heater with varying resistances and attaching the carbon nanotube heater to both carrier and encapsulating materials. Creating the carbon nanotube heater with varying resistances is accomplished by applying a carbon nanotube mixture to a substrate, adjusting the thickness or width of the carbon nanotube mixture, and drying the nanotube mixture.

Disclosed is a timepiece assembly including at least two elements in contact and mobile relative to each other, one of the elements having at least a first contact surface intended to rub against at least a second contact surface of the other element under dry lubrication conditions. At least one of the first and second contact surfaces is covered with a hydrophobic coating having an angle of contact with water greater than 90°, preferably greater than 100° and preferably greater than 110°, and a coefficient of friction lower than 0.15, preferably lower than 0.12 and preferably lower than 0.1, the variation in the coefficient of friction as a function of the relative humidity being lower than 25%, preferably lower than 10% and preferably lower than 5%.

A painting method for painting a painting subject area whose edge shape is delimited by at least one demarcation line. The method includes a center portion painting step of painting a center portion of the painting subject area which is away from the demarcation line using an air atomizing nozzle disposed within 5 cm or less from a painting subject surface, and a frame portion painting step of painting a frame portion of the painting subject area which is adjacent the demarcation line using a jet nozzle.

A deposition mask in which deformation of long sides is restrained is manufactured. A manufacturing method of a deposition mask includes a step of preparing a metal plate; a processing step of processing the metal plate into an intermediate product comprising: a plurality of deposition mask portions each including a pair of long sides and a pair of short sides, and having a plurality of through-holes formed therein; and a support portion that surrounds the plurality of deposition mask portions, and is partially connected to the short sides of the plurality of deposition mask portions; and a separation step of separating the deposition mask portions from the support portion to obtain the deposition mask. In the intermediate product, the long sides of the deposition mask portions are not connected to the support portion.

A method for manufacturing a display substrate, a display substrate, a display panel and a display device are provided. The method includes: disposing a mask plate including an occlusion area above a base substrate, an orthographic projection of occlusion area on the base substrate partially overlapping a folding area of the base substrate; forming an inorganic layer pattern with an opening on the base substrate by using mask plate, an orthographic projection of opening on the base substrate partially overlapping the folding area of base substrate. An orthographic projection of opening on the base substrate partially overlaps the folding area of base substrate. The folding area of base substrate is occluded by mask plate. The inorganic layer is formed on the base substrate by using mask plate. Effect of conveniently and quickly removing a portion the inorganic layer located in the folding area can be achieved without removing the portion.

The present disclosure relates to processes for suspending stretched nucleic acids over surface features. These processes can be used to prepare stretched nucleic acids that are more active in enzymatic reactions and other reactions than those laid down on a flat surface. These processes can be achieved by using a photoresist layer on top of a substrate, stretch a nucleic acid on top of the surface, and then remove part of the photoresist to form surface features that suspend the stretched nucleic acid. Furthermore, the formation of a hydrogel layer over the stretched nucleic acid and the surface features can transfer the stretched nucleic acid to the hydrogel for further reactions, including enzymatic reactions.

The present invention relates to a method for forming a metal pattern on a pattern formation section set on a base material. In the present invention, a substrate provided with a fluorine-containing resin layer on a surface of the base material including the pattern formation section is used. The present inventive method for forming a metal pattern includes steps of: forming a functional group on the pattern formation section; and applying a metal ink including an amine compound and a fatty acid as protective agents to the base material surface to fix the metal particles on the pattern formation section. In the present invention, a fluorine-containing resin having a surface free energy measured by the Owens-Wendt method of 13 mN/m or more and 20 mN/m or less is applied as the fluorine-containing resin layer. Further, a metal ink including ethyl cellulose as an additive is applied as the metal ink.

In an example of the disclosure, a priming lane and a non-priming lane are identified within an image frame to be printed by a printer. A line of molten wax is applied to the roller. The molten wax when cooled is to form a wax ridge upon the roller. The roller having the formed wax ridge is wetted with the primer. The wetted roller is rotated against the substrate to apply the primer. A first width of the wetted roller that does not include the wax ridge forms the priming lane upon the substrate. A second width of the roller that includes the wax ridge causes the primer to not transfer and thereby forms the non-priming lane upon the substrate.
