Coated grain oriented electrical steel plates and methods of producing the same are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a method includes producing molten steel with from about 2.5 to about 4 weight percent silicon, from about 0.005 to about 0.1 weight percent carbon, and from about 90 to about 97.5 weight percent iron. The molten steel is cast into a slab and then cold rolled into a plate having a surface. The plate is decarbonized using a decarbonization anneal, and then recrystallized using a recrystallization anneal to produce grain oriented electrical steel. A coating is applied overlying the surface, where the coating includes an organic radiation curable crosslinking agent and a photo-initiator. The coating is cured by exposing it to a radiation source.

Also described herein are a method for forming the printable recording media and a printing method that includes ejecting an ink composition onto the print media described herein.

Inside a heating space of a heating chamber, a first heating treatment of moving a substrate along a substrate moving direction is performed by a first conveyor. After that, first conveyance processing of moving the substrate along a conveying direction is performed by a second conveyor. At this time, source mist is sprayed on the substrate by first thin film forming nozzles. Subsequently, second heating treatment is performed by a third conveyor. After that, second conveyance processing is performed by a fourth conveyor. At this time, source mist is sprayed on the substrate by second thin film forming nozzles.
