Compositions and methods involving latent base-catalyzed Michael addition reaction are described herein. The compositions described herein are derived from a Michael addition reaction and provide coatings, including primer coatings and direct-to-metal coatings that have optimal adhesion, corrosion resistance, and cure response when applied to a substrate and cured.

Introduced here is a plasma polymerization apparatus and process. Example embodiments include a vacuum chamber in a substantially symmetrical shape to a central axis. A rotation rack may be operable to rotate about the central axis of the vacuum chamber. Additionally, reactive species discharge mechanisms positioned around a perimeter of the vacuum chamber in a substantially symmetrical manner from the outer perimeter of the vacuum chamber may be configured to disperse reactive species into the vacuum chamber. The reactive species may form a polymeric multi-layer coating on surfaces of the one or more devices. Each layer may have a different composition of atoms to enhance the water resistance, corrosion resistance, and fiction resistance of the polymeric multi-layer coating.

In a three-dimensional printing method example, a pre-treatment coating is formed on a part precursor by applying and drying, alternatingly: a polycation solution including a chloride ion and a polyanion solution including a sodium ion to form at least two layers. An ink is selectively deposited on the pre-treatment coating.

A method of forming a digital print on a surface by applying powder of dry ink including colourants on the surface, bonding a part of the dry ink powder to the surface by a digital heating print head such that the digital print is formed by the bonded dry ink colourants and removing non-bonded dry ink from the surface.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a multilayer coating on a metallic substrate, comprising, in the given order, (1) producing a polyvinyl chloride plastisol layer on the metallic substrate, comprising the application of a polyvinyl chloride plastisol material to the metallic substrate, (2) producing a thermosetting and/or thermoplastic topcoat layer directly on the polyvinyl chloride plastisol layer, comprising the application of a thermosetting and/or thermoplastic coating material directly to the polyvinyl chloride plastisol layer, wherein both the polyvinyl chloride plastisol material and the thermosetting and/or thermoplastic coating material comprise a layered double hydroxide.

A placement member (1) in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes a base (4) having a placement section (3) on which an object (2) is placed, and a coating film (5) that coats at least a part of the placement section (3). The placement section (3) has a bottom face (8), a plurality of projections (9) projecting from the bottom face (8), and an annular protrusion (10) that protrudes from the bottom face (8) at the same height as the plurality of projections (9) and surrounds the plurality of projections (9). The coating film (5) has a first region (15) that coats top faces (11) of the projections (9) and a second region (16) that coats a top face (13) of the annular protrusion (10) and has a smaller thickness than that of the first region (15).
