Provided is a method for obtaining a cooking vessel that includes the following steps: producing a bowl having an aluminum outer surface and an inner surface; performing hard anodization of at least the outer surface of the bowl; and providing a sol-gel coating on the anodized outer surface. At least one coloring step is carried out following the hard anodization, the coloring step(s) being carried out before and/or during the sol-gel coating step. Also provided is a kitchen item or an electrical cooking appliance that includes a cooking vessel obtained by the above method.

A surface-treating agent for a nitrided surface, including a fluorine-containing compound having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond at its molecular terminal as a group of Y-A wherein Y is a single bond, an oxygen atom or a divalent organic group, and A is CHCH.sub.2 or CCH. Also disclosed is an article treated with the surface-treating agent, a method for forming a surface-treating layer on a surface of a base material, a surface-treating layer forming apparatus, and a process for producing an article including a base material and a surface-treating layer coating a surface of the base material.

Compositions and processes are disclosed for forming hydrophobic coatings and lubricant-infused surface coatings. Coatings may be applied to various substrates without prior chemical or temperature treatment of the substrates and over large and irregular surfaces. Coatings are self-healing, antifouling, and have enhanced lifetimes.

This relates to a coated substrate for packaging applications and a method for producing the coated substrate.

A method for producing a green body includes forming a layer which contains a powder of a ceramic on a substrate, applying at least one solidifying composition on at least a part of the layer, repeating forming the layer and applying at least one solidifying composition at least one time, removing the solvent or dispersing agent at least in part for forming a green body, and removing the powder which has not bonded and thereby exposing the green body. The solidifying composition contains a dissolved or liquid organometallic compound, which has at least one atom other than C, Si, H, O, or N bonded to at least one organic moiety, an organic binding agent, and a solvent or dispersing agent.

Coated articles are provided comprising:

(a) a substrate;
(b) a first coating layer applied to at least one surface of the substrate; wherein the first coating layer comprises a material that inhibits degradation of the substrate; and
(c) a second coating layer that is different from the first coating layer and is applied to at least one surface of the first coating layer; wherein the second coating layer comprises an organo-silicon compound. Also provided are mold assemblies and assemblies for DNA sequencing prepared from the coated articles.

A method for forming a coating on a substrate is provided, the method comprises: using a molecular layer deposition (MLD) process depositing at least one layer directly or indirectly on a surface, and an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process, depositing an inorganic film on/over the at least one layer. In the formed coating conditions are established which allow unbound, unreacted and/or partially reacted precursors to enter chemical interaction with harmful environmental species penetrated into the coating at defective sites thereof and seal said defective sites through formation of a sealing compound. A laminate coating, uses thereof and coated items are further provided.

The present invention discloses a plasma non-stick pan and manufacturing method thereof. The plasma non-stick pan comprises a pan body and a non-stick layer applied to the pan body; a plasma layer is provided between the non-stick layer and the pan body, and the plasma layer comprises a MCrALY layer sprayed to the surface of the pan body and a mixture layer sprayed outside of the MCrALY layer, and the mixture layer is composed of MCrALY particles and metal oxide particles. The MCrALY layer has good toughness and strong adhesion, and it is easy to bind with the substrate with high fastness after binding, playing a buffering role and laying a foundation for the subsequent spraying of mixture layer.

The invention concerns barrier films comprising: (i) a substrate comprising at least first and second coatings on the substrate; (ii) the first coating comprising an inorganic oxide, metal oxide or metallic coating; and (iii) the second coating capable of adhering to the substrates, wherein the second coating is polymeric; wherein the degradation of oxygen transmission rate is reduced when compared to a barrier film without the second coating when the barrier film is subjected to Gelbo-type flexing as described in ASTM F392.

Provided is a member in which the strength of a second layer located on the outermost surface of the exterior is improved in order to sufficiently exhibit and maintain the functions, to thereby improve impact resistance and scratch resistance. The member is a member including a base material, a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer in the stated order, wherein the first layer is an inorganic porous layer in which a plurality of inorganic particles are joined to each other, and the first layer and the second layer have a total thickness of 0.3 m or more and 2 m or less, wherein the third layer contains a resin and has a thickness of 0.4 m or more and 2,000 m or less, and wherein the second layer contains the inorganic particles and the resin.
