The present invention relates to component, in particular a top plate (2) for a gas hob (1) and/or a burner cap (6a, 6b) of a gas burner (5a, 5b) for a gas hob (1), having a non-stick and/or non-wetting coating (12) obtainable by a process characterised by the following steps, a) providing a component, in particular a top plate (2) and/or a burner cap (6a, 6b), having an upper surface (7a) and a bottom surface (11b), b) preferably, pretreating of at least the upper surface of the component, in particular the top plate or the burner cap, for providing a surface having a roughness being suitable for applying a non-stick and/or non-wetting coating, by mechanical treatment, physical treatment or chemical treatment, in particular by sand-blasting and/or laser treatment and/or a surface activation treatment, particularly a plasma treatment, and/or an enameling process to form a ground layer (13), thus applying an enamel layer onto the upper surface of the component, in particular the top plate or the burner cap, c) applying the non-stick and/or non-wetting coating (12) to the upper surface (11a) of the component, in particular a top plate (2) and/or a burner cap (6a, 6b), or the surface (14a) of the ground layer (13), wherein the non-stick and/or non-wetting coating (12) comprises at least one layer (17) that is obtained by a sol-gel process from a first composition comprising a silica sol and a silane. The invention further relates to a cooking appliance (1), in particular a gas hob comprising such a component, in particular a top plate (2) and/or a burner cap (6a, 6b), and a method for manufacturing such a component, in particular a top plate (2) and/or a burner cap (6a, 6b).

The present invention provides a coating composition comprising one or more polyamide resins and one or more polyethylenimine (PEI) resins, preferably dissolved in one or more solvents. When used as a primer, the coating composition of the present invention improves adhesion of subsequently printed inks and coatings to the substrate. Advantageously, the coating composition of the present invention used as a primer improves adhesion of inks and coatings to metallized film substrates.

A plate-making method for manufacturing a printing plate includes: manufacturing the printing plate based on a knockout method in which knockouts of halftone dots in one color are formed, and halftone dots in the other color are overprinted onto positions of the knockouts; for each of pixels, when a sum of a halftone dot area ratio of the one color and a halftone dot area ratio of the other color is smaller than 100%, forming a gap from a knockout in the one color around a halftone dot in the other color; and for each of pixels, when the sum of the halftone dot area ratio of the one color and the halftone dot area ratio of the other color is greater than 100%, forming an overmask such that the halftone dot in the other color penetrates a periphery of the halftone dot in the one color.

A device for imprinting cans comprises a plurality of ink cartridges that supply ink to a plurality of printing plates; the printing plates communicate with transfer blankets fixed to a drum, the transfer blankets move ink from the printing plates and apply it to cans; each transfer blanket includes a different art in low relief which produces an image on cans in addition to the image produced by printing plates; the device is preferably a rotary dry offset printer.

A manufacturing method comprises: a printing step printing on an outer peripheral surface of a cylinder part of a cylinder body; a necking step deforming the cylinder body after the printing step to form a tapered part in which a diameter is reduced upward from the cylinder part and a small-diameter part extending to an upper side of the tapered part; and a mouth part forming step deforming the small-diameter part to form the mouth part including a swelled part and a male thread part. In the printing step, ink is coated on a third coating region to be the cylinder part, a fourth coating region to be the tapered part, and a first coating region to be the swelled part. An apply amount of the ink per unit area on the first coating region is less than that of the ink per unit on the third coating region.
