The present invention provides a surface treatment method for magnesium alloy object, the method comprising: providing a magnesium alloy object; preprocessing the magnesium alloy object; performing micro-arc oxidation (MAO) treatment on the magnesium alloy object to form a micro-arc oxidation layer; Sputtering at least one metal layer or at least one non-metal layer on a surface of the micro-arc oxidation layer, the metal layer or non-metal layer which is sputtered on the micro-arc oxidation layer has different angles by using surface roughness of the micro-arc oxidation layer when a light source is projected on the metal layer or non-metal layer; and Sputtering a paint layer on the metal layer or non-metal layer to make the surface metallic lustrous and corrosion-resistant. The present invention further provides a surface structure of a magnesium alloy object.

A laser-assisted microfluidics manufacturing process has been developed for the fabrication of additively manufactured structures. Roll-to-roll manufacturing is enhanced by the use of a laser-assisted electrospray printhead positioned above the flexible substrate. The laser electrospray printhead sprays microdroplets containing nanoparticles onto the substrate to form both thin-film and structural layers. As the substrate moves, the nanoparticles are sintered using a laser beam directed by the laser electrospray printhead onto the substrate.

The provided technologies provide an implant closure device having a mesh layer formed on a flexible substrate, collectively forming a sealable member, that improves a seal formed over an aperture in a body lumen. The mesh facilitates a faster and more secure adherence of the sealable member to the surrounding edges at the puncture site. Furthermore, the provided technology may promote platelet-capture and encourage localized platelet aggregation at the exposed collagen in the wound edges on the mesh layer. The platelet impregnated mesh layer can facilitate cellular adhesion, enabling the sealable member that is local to the wound opening to act, in essence, as a “biological glue.”

In a powder coating process, a primer step is implemented prior to electrostatically applying the powder coating, either in advance of preheating the object to be coated or subsequent thereto, depending upon the selection of materials used in the object to be coated, the primer material being diluted fabric softener applied in a fine mist spray or fog to the object.

A charge remaining in an electrostatic coater when power supply to the electrostatic coater is stopped is neutralized at an early stage. A rotary atomizing head 102 receives a high voltage of negative polarity from a cascade 104. An electrostatic coater 100 further includes a second high-voltage generator 110 that generates a high voltage of positive polarity. The second high-voltage generator 110 is composed of a Cockcroft-Walton circuit. The Cockcroft-Walton circuit is composed of diodes and capacitors. A high voltage of the electrostatic coater 100 is controlled by a controller 10. Immediately after running of the electrostatic coater 100 is stopped by stopping power supply to the cascade 104, power is supplied to the second high-voltage generator 110. The high voltage of positive polarity generated by the second high-voltage generator 110 is supplied to the rotary atomizing head 102 for a predetermined time period.

An external part of a timepiece has a substrate that includes a base layer and a surface layer, the surface layer including Ti or stainless steel; and a coating disposed on the substrate. The coating includes an outermost layer formed primarily of TiC defining an external surface, and an interior layer formed primarily of TiC positioned between the substrate and the outermost layer. An elastic modulus of the interior layer is greater than the elasticmodulus of the outermost layer.
