Abstract:
An apparatus is disclosed for making selectively designed breakfast cakes. In one embodiment, the present invention includes a top and bottom cover each having a heat source and able to receive a top and bottom design plate respectively. The top and bottom design plate impose a design such as a star or tree on the breakfast cake. The top and bottom design plate may be substantially similar. In certain embodiments, the top and bottom cover each include a bracket system for receiving a design plate. In other embodiments, the present invention also includes an interface panel, a base, a mechanically retractable power cord, and a handle.
Abstract:
Methods of enhancing the adhesion between a metal surface and an organic polymeric material, such as a dielectric material, in the manufacture of printed circuit boards are provided. Such methods use an adhesion promoting composition including polymeric particles disposed between the metal surface and the organic polymeric material. Also provided are printed circuit boards having enhanced adhesion between a metal surface and an organic polymeric material.
Abstract:
Methods of improving the adhesion of metal layers to a substrate, such as an optical substrate, are provided. Such methods employ a layer of an adhesion promoting composition including a plating catalyst on the substrate before metal deposition. Also provided are devices made by such processes.
