Several embodiments include a cooking instrument. The cooking instrument can select a food cooking recipe and identify relative areas in a cooking chamber to place at least two portions of food. The relative areas would match the food cooking recipe. The cooking instrument can display information associated with an instruction to place the at least two portions of food over the relative areas. The cooking instrument can then determine a heating sequence in accordance with the food cooking recipe and control, based on the heating sequence, a heating system to directionally transfer heat under different heating characteristics respectively to the at least two portions of the food at the identified relative areas in the cooking chamber.

Various enhancements of tabbed seals are provided herein with enhanced tab functionality. Such enhancements include a lacquer coating, such as one-part and two-part coatings, which can help minimize tab sticking to the lower laminate. Further, the lacquer can help decrease air bubbles under the tab and also provide visual enhancements to the tab.

A container for consumer goods comprises an outer housing having a box and a lid (103) hinged to the box along a hinge line and pivotable about the hinge line between an open position and a closed position. Further, the container comprises an inner package (104) of consumer goods within the outer housing comprising an access opening (105) for removing consumer goods when the lid is in the open position. The container further comprises a reclosable flap (106) occluding the access opening and at least one activatable adhesive element (107) provided on a surface of the reclosable flap, on a surface of the lid or on both. The adhesive element can be selectively activated, and the reclosable flap can be affixed to the lid by the activated adhesive element, such that upon opening the lid the reclosable flap is lifted off the inner package to at least partly reveal the access opening.

A packaging bag for packaging a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin that contains a modified group having active hydrogen, the packaging bag including a film having a water vapor permeability of 10 g/m.sup.2/day or less. Accordingly, when a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin that contains a modified group having active hydrogen is packaged with the packaging bag, the storage stability of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin that contains a modified group having active hydrogen can be improved, and hence an aqueous solution of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin that contains a modified group having active hydrogen, the solution being reduced in insoluble matter content, can be obtained even after long-term storage thereof.

A display device comprises a display panel and a cover plate stacked with the display panel. An antistatic layer is provided on a side of the cover plate facing toward the display panel. The antistatic layer surrounds a display region (AA) of the display device, and the antistatic layer is grounded. The display device can achieve the antistatic protection function without reducing the light transmittance while meeting the requirement of the narrow bazel display device.

A coating structure for a sheet-like substrate, which includes lignocellulosic fibres is disclosed. The structure includes at least one pre-coat layer including at least 70 weight-% of a first styrene (meth)acrylate copolymer polymerised in the presence of a stabiliser, having a glass transition temperature Tg ≤20° C. preferably ≤10° C., ≤30 weight-% of inorganic platy mineral particles and 0.01-2 weight-% of at least one first thickener. The coating structure further includes a top coat layer including at least 50 weight-% of a second styrene (meth)acrylate copolymer polymerised in the presence of a stabiliser having a glass transition temperature Tg ≤20° C. preferably ≤10° C., ≤30 weight-% of inorganic mineral particles, 0.01-5 weight-% of at least one second thickener and 0.5-30 weight-% of an antiblocking agent. Further disclosed is a sheet-like product coated with the coating structure.
