A coating can include a nanocomposite film including surface modified silicon dioxide nanoparticles, the nanocomposite film having an oxygen plasma treated surface, and a monolayer of a fluoro alkyl chain

A system for creating a microencapsulate coating composition and the method of adding the scented microencapsulate coating to product packaging. The microencapsulate coating contains scented compounds that are encapsulated to create encapsulated particles. The encapsulant can be either water soluble or hydrophobic depending upon the intended application. The encapsulated particles are mixed with a binding agent, to create a scented microencapsulate coating. The scented microencapsulate coating is applied to packaging in areas that will be touched as the packaging is manipulated. The physical contact ruptures the microencapsulate coating and releases the scented compounds contained therein.

A method for providing a bio-active layer on a surface, includes the steps of: a) ionizing a plasma gas at low temperature of 150° C. or lower, and at about atmospheric pressure, thereby creating a plasma; b) introducing a precursor into said plasma; c) exposing the surface to said plasma comprising said precursor, thereby forming a coating onto the surface. The precursors include a biological pathogen transfer inhibiting compound.

A method for depositing a multilayer coating onto a substrate includes supporting the substrate on a platen comprising an electrically conductive material disposed in a deposition chamber, connected to an electrical power supply and electrically insulated from an electrode. The pressure in the deposition chamber is less than 10 Torr when a first feedstock is fed to the substrate. The electrical power supply is activated to create a plasma surrounding the substrate which ionises and/or activates particles within the first feedstock, allowing the ionised and/or activated particles from the first feedstock to deposit on the substrate and polymerise, thereby forming a first a coating on the substrate. Particles of a second feedstock, different from the first feedstock, are fed to the substrate and are ionized and/or activated by the plasma and allowed to deposit on the substrate and polymerise to form a second coating on the substrate. The pressure in the deposition chamber does not rise above 700 Torr between feedstocks fed therein.
