Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To protect a glass sheet, particularly an LCD glass sheet from scuffing in cutting, grinding, shipping and/or storage. SOLUTION: An aqueous solution containing at least one polysaccharide is applied to the surface of a glass sheet and the water is removed from the aqueous solution to leave a polysaccharide-containing coating on the surface of the glass sheet. This polysaccharide-containing coating can be removed later from the surface of the glass sheet by using an aqueous solution combined with ultrasonic cleaning and/or brush cleaning.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a microwave regeneratable particulate filter for diesel engine which collects and burns diesel exhaust particulates, can be regenerated by microwave energy, is excellent in a cost-performance and has high thermal shock resistance and excellent strength durable under chemically and physically severe conditions of ordinary diesel exhaust gas. SOLUTION: This filter comprises a substrate having a surface provided with pores which are extended into the monolithic substrate and a coating which is extended over the surface of the substrate as a substantially continuing layer which is made of fire-resistant oxide material durable for the heating when the substrate is heated from room temperature nearly to 600 deg.C within about 5 min at a frequency of about 2.45 GHz. The fire-resistant oxide material has the loss tangent which decreases with such a temperature rise that the equilibrium of filter temperature is attained at
