The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for treating a substrate with liquid. The substrate treating apparatus comprises a substrate supporting unit for supporting the substrate, a liquid supply unit for supplying a liquid to the substrate supported on the substrate supporting unit, and a controller for controlling the liquid supply unit, wherein the liquid supply unit comprises a first nozzle for supplying a first liquid and a second nozzle for supplying a second liquid, and a second area where the second liquid is supplied on the substrate is provided within a first area where the first liquid is supplied on the substrate. The first liquid and the second liquid supplied with a hydrophobic film are discharged with different ways from each other. Thereby, particles with various sizes may be removed depending on each discharge methods.

One example includes a method for fabricating a compound material. The method includes providing a first discrete material layer having a first thickness dimension. The first discrete material layer includes a first material having a first magnetic susceptibility. The method also includes depositing a second discrete material layer having a second thickness dimension over the first discrete material layer. The second discrete material layer can include a second material having a second magnetic susceptibility. The relative first and second thickness dimensions can be selected to provide a desired magnetic susceptibility of the compound material.

A method is provided for coating a substrate, in particular a fiber reinforced plastic component, a protective layer being applied, with preference by means of thermal spraying, to a non-cured resin film applied to a release film, and subsequently, after removal of the release film, the resin film being applied to the substrate and cured.

A pigment-containing coating formulation combines (i) polymeric wetting and dispersing additives that absorb onto pigment particles to surround pigment particles to prevent or limit sedimentation; (ii) a self-crosslinking acrylic dispersion with low surfactants and long open time, allowing the pigment to lay flat instead of migrating and agglomerating at the surface; and (3) rheology modification facilitating good Newtonian flow behavior and balanced thixotropic thickening of the coating for improved brushability, flow and leveling for improved appearance with keener light reflection and more uniform pearlescent and metallic effect appearance.

A rectification device and a method of using the device for rectification of a surface defect including mounting an positioning the rectification device at least one of adjacent or covering a defect;, identifying the defect, acquiring, a multi dimensional topological grid profile of the defect, calculating a fill volume and distribution sequence, including but not limited to, material transfer order, deposit layer thickness, that will achieve surface continuity with the region around the defect, and filling the defect with a suitable filler using at least one precision guided filling head in one or more filling passes following the calculate fill sequence until surface continuity is achieved.

Reactive nanocomposites comprising a metal nanoparticle functionalized with one or more layers of self-assembled protein cages and methods of making the same. The reactive nanocomposites according to the present invention demonstrate improved reaction kinetics and enhanced exothermic behavior.

The invention relates to a method for producing, applying and fixing a multilayer surface coating (2a, 3a) on at least one surface (1a) to be coated of a host substrate (1) in order to produce a host substrate assembly. Starting with a fixative product (2) and a functional product (3) based on single-walled or multi-walled graphene, the method consists in successively applying: a layer (2a) of fixative product to the or to each surface (1a) to be coated of the host substrate (1); and a layer of the functional product to said fixative layer (2a). The assembly can be finished with a protective layer deposited directly onto the layer (3a) that contains the functional product. The invention also relates to a host substrate assembly which can be obtained by said method, a heating element, an anti-corrosion and/or anti-fouling/dirt-repelling element and a hydrophobic element each comprising such an assembly.

A system and method for applying a coating to a surface. The coating can include any typical coating, but in some examples includes a styrenated acrylic coating. The coating is first applied. Thereafter, a quick-set formula which includes a brine solution is applied atop the first coating. The quick-set formula sets the first coating. Thereafter, a second coating, or multiple coatings, can be applied atop the first coating. Due to the quick-set formula, the second coating can be applied in less than 15 minutes.

A method of lining an inner surface of a tubular with a polymer, includes positioning a polymer injecting head within the tubular, forming an annular space between the injecting head and an inner surface of the tubular, injecting polymer through the injecting head into the annular space, and moving the polymer injecting head longitudinally relative to the tubular while injecting polymer.
