A method of and system for producing Class-A fire-protected oriented strand board (OSB) sheets. Each Class-A fire-protected OSB sheet has: a core medium layer made of wood pump, binder and/or adhesive materials; a pair of OSB layers bonded to the core medium layer; a clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) coating on the surface of each OSB layer, made from CFIC liquid applied to the surface by dipping the OSB sheet into the CFIC liquid in a dipping tank, allowing shallow surface absorption into the OSB layers and ends of the core medium layer at atmospheric pressure; and a moisture, fire and UV protection coating spray coated over the CFIC coating to provide protection against moisture, fire and UV radiation from Sunlight, which is quickly dried by passing through a drying tunnel on the production line.

A cross bar for powder coating and electronic coating, and methods for forming the same. A connector extends between a front portion and a rear portion. Embosses are located in the front and rear portions to connect with each other. Drain holes are provided at spaced intervals along the front and rear portions, offset from one another.

The present invention generally relates to a device and a process for performing large-scale noncovalent functionalization of 2D materials, with chemical pattern elements as small as a few nanometers, using thermally controlled rotary Langmuir-Schaefer conversion. In particular, the present invention discloses a device comprising a thermally regulated disc driven by a rotor with fine speed control configured to be operable with a Langmuir trough for performing large-scale noncovalent functionalization of 2D materials, achieving ordered domain areas up to nearly 10,000 m.sup.2, with chemical pattern elements as small as a few nanometers. A process using the device for performing large-scale noncovalent functionalization of 2D materials with chemical pattern elements as small as a few nanometers is within the scope of this disclosure. The process we demonstrate would be readily extensible to roll-to-roll processing, addressing a longstanding challenge in scaling Langmuir-Schaefer transfer for practical applications.

The inventive concept provides a substrate treating apparatus. The substrate treating apparatus includes a batch-type treating bath for treating a substrate in a batch-type manner; a single-type treating chamber for treating the substrate in a single-type manner; and a buffer chamber positioned on a transfer path of the substrate transferred between the batch-type treating bath and the single-type treating chamber, and supplying a liquid for maintaining a wetting state of the substrate.

A method for the production of an FMV hybrid component includes braiding a dry hybrid fibre thread onto a core element, where a hybrid fibre braid is formed, and obtaining a fibre core composite. The method further includes reshaping the fibre core composite and impregnating and consolidating the hybrid fibre braid on the core element.

A coating tank 1 provided with a net belt passage opening is prepared, a slurry obtained by dispersing a rare-earth-compound powder in a solvent is continuously supplied to the coating tank 1 to cause the coating tank 1 to overflow, and a plurality of sintered magnet bodies 10 are arranged on a net belt conveyor 5, continuously conveyed horizontally thereon, and passed through the slurry in the coating tank 1 via the net belt passage opening, to apply the slurry to the sintered magnet bodies. The slurry is subsequently dried to continuously apply the powder to the plurality of sintered magnet bodies. As a result, the rare-earth-compound powder can be uniformly applied to the surfaces of the sintered magnet bodies, and the application operation can be performed extremely efficiently.

In a lumber factory, an automated laminated veneer lumber (LVL) process supported by a lumber production line employing a cross-cutting and rip-sawing stage, a dip-coating stage, a spray-coating stage, a print-marking stage, and a stacking, packaging and wrapping stage. At the dip-coating stage, cross-cut and rip-sawed LVL product is automatically transported and submerged through a dipping reservoir containing clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) liquid, and then wet-stacked and set aside to dry. Once dried, the dip-coated LVL products are returned to the production line and sprayed coated with a moisture, fire and UV protective coating at the spray-coating stage, and then passed through a drying tunnel for quick drying of the spray-coating to produce Class-A fire-protected LVL products. The Class-A fire-protected LVL products are stacked, packaged and wrapped at the stacking, packaging and wrapping stage into a package of Class-A fire-protected LVL products, ready for shipping.
