A method of producing a particle coating on one or more items is provided. The method comprises mixing supercritical carbon dioxide with a solution comprising dissolved material for forming particles. The method further comprises spraying the mixture into a precipitation chamber (316) to precipitate particles, wherein the chamber is at a pressure below a supercritical pressure of the supercritical fluid. The method also comprises capturing the precipitated particles on one or more items located within the chamber.

A nozzle for an atomizer includes a plate, a piezoelectric actuator, a body, and a connector. The plate defines an aperture. The actuator is configured to oscillate the plate. The body supports the plate. The connector is configured to reversibly mount the body to the atomizer in a first orientation and in a second orientation. In the first orientation, fluid exits the nozzle along a first axial direction through the aperture. In the second orientation, fluid exits the nozzle along an opposite axial direction through the aperture.

To provide a powder coating material composition capable of forming a fluororesin layer excellent in adhesion to a base material and having foaming or cracking suppressed even when the firing temperature is as high as at least 380° C.

A powder coating material composition comprising a resin powder with an average particle size of from 10 to 800 μm containing polymer A and heat stabilizer B, wherein the proportion of the heat stabilizer B to 100 parts by mass of the polymer A is from 0.01 to 30 parts by mass. Polymer A: A tetrafluoroethylene/perfluoro (alkyl vinyl ether) copolymer having at least one type of functional group selected from the group consisting of a carbonyl group-containing group, etc., or a tetrafluoroethylene/hexafluoropropylene copolymer, having the functional group, and having a melting point of from 260 to 320° C. Heat stabilizer B: A heat stabilizer selected from the group consisting of an aromatic polyether compound, an aromatic amine compound, an aromatic sulfur compound and a polysilane compound.

Provided is method for producing a support material provided with at least one anti-fingerprint coating including the steps of applying at least one layer of at least one powdered resin to at least one side of the support material; melting on the at least one applied layer of the one powdered resin; applying at least one acrylate-containing dispersion to the melted-on resin layer; and drying and curing the layered structure.

An aerosol actuator has a main body member, a nozzle member defining an outlet opening, and a selector member. The outlet opening defines a fluid flow direction. The selector member is moved to obtain different fluid spray patterns. The selector member is distal to the nozzle member and the fluid flow direction.
