A vacuum formed part includes at least two layers with one layer including a catalyst and the other not including a catalyst. At least one of the layers is formed by applying a slurry to a die or mold and applying a vacuum to the die or mold. The other layer may be formed from a slurry or may be provided onto the die or mold in the form of a fiber mat or blanket.

Disclosed is a dip-coating method as a method of coating an outer surface of a target mold including steps of: preparing and putting a supporting liquid in a container; applying a coating material to the target mold; dipping the target mold in the supporting liquid; shaking the target mold surrounded by the coating material in the supporting liquid; curing the coating material surrounding the target mold in the supporting liquid; and taking out the coated target mold from the supporting liquid.

The invention relates to a method for forming an article comprising a pathway of particles wherein a termination of the pathway of particles is exposed. The method comprises arranging the particles by applying an electric field and/or a magnetic field at an interface between a water soluble or a non-water soluble matrix and a matrix comprising a viscous material and particles. After fixating the viscous material, the termination is exposed by dissolving the water soluble or non-water soluble matrix. The invention also relates to articles obtainable by said method, and to the use of said method in various applications.
