The present invention provides a water-based coating and/or coating system used to form sag resistant wet layers or coatings on a wide range of substrates. The coating system is effective for protecting metal-containing substrates, such as intermodal cargo containers, against corrosion. As an overview, the present invention provides water-based compositions as primer coats on substrates, and methods for applying the same to substrates. The method includes steps of applying a water-based paint to the interior surfaces of a substrate and drying the substrate by continuously forcing heated air onto the substrate as it moves through a drying chamber. Desirably, the primer incorporates a high level of one or more CAS agents for excellent sag resistance while drying in a broad range of relative humidity environments. Alternatively, modifications can be made to control temperature and humidity during spray application and drying as a way to increase sag resistance of the coating.

The present invention relates to biomaterials coated with an active agent eluting coating, wherein implantation of the coated biomaterial results in reduced implant-related complications and/or improved integration of the biomaterial into the host tissue and further relates to kits containing the coated biomaterial. The present invention also relates to methods and kits for coating the biomaterial. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that biomaterial coated with a cytokine eluting coating resulted in the shift of early stage macrophage polarization that were associated with positive long-term effects such as minimized capsule formation and improved tissue quality and composition as compared to uncoated biomaterials.

The present invention relates to a device, the use thereof and a method for producing highly porous, crystalline surface coatings comprising at least two spraying devices operating in sequential sequence for applying coating agents from the storage vessels (3, 4) to a material arranged on a sample holder (1) and at least one rinsing device (5, 13, 16) for removing unbound molecules from the coated surface.

A display device includes a non-transmissive display section and a transmissive display section. The non-transmissive display section includes a base member including a first polyimide. The transmissive display section includes a base member including a second polyimide that has higher transparency than the first polyimide. The base member of the non-transmissive display section and the base member of the transmissive display section are connected in a connecting section. A bending portion is provided in the base member of the non-transmissive display section or the base member of the transmissive display section. The connecting section and the bending portion do not overlap each other.

A multi-layer coating includes: a first basecoat layer applied over at least a portion of a substrate; and a second basecoat layer applied over the first basecoat layer. The first basecoat layer and second basecoat layer are formed from compositions having a polyhydrazide and core-shell particles dispersed in aqueous mediums. The core-shell particles of the first basecoat composition includes (1) a polymeric core at least partially encapsulated by (2) a polymeric shell comprising urea linkages, and keto and/or aldo functional groups. The polymeric core of the core-shell particles of the first basecoat composition and the second basecoat composition are each independently covalently bonded to at least a portion of the polymeric shell of the core-shell particles.

A coating film has a multilayer structure including stacked nanosheets of an inorganic oxide and has a thickness of a certain level or more, as well as a composite material containing a metallic material and the coating film provided on the metallic material.
