Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a dew formation preventing member having a super water repellent surface of the present invention comprises the steps of: mixing a particular paint and polytetrafluorethylene at a predetermined ratio; particulate painting the mixed paint on a substrate surface; and heat treating the particulate painted substrate. A method of manufacturing a dew formation preventing member having a super water repellent surface according to another aspect of the present invention comprises the steps of: immersing a substrate in an electro deposition paint, and applying a direct current to conduct electro deposition painting; heat treating the substrate that has undergone the electro deposition painting; and plasma treating the surface of the substrate that has undergone the electro deposition painting.

Abstract:
The present invention is a long gas barrier laminate including a base, a functional layer, a smoothing layer, and a gas barrier layer, the functional layer being stacked on one side of the base, the smoothing layer and the gas barrier layer being sequentially stacked on the other side of the base, and a coefficient of static friction between a surface of the functional layer that is situated opposite to the base and a surface of the gas barrier layer that is situated opposite to the base being 0.35 to 0.80; and a method for producing the long gas barrier laminate.
Abstract:
A method of making a multi-layer biocidal structure includes providing a support and locating a first curable layer on the support. A second curable layer is located on the first curable layer, the second curable layer having multiple biocidal particles dispersed within the second curable layer. The first curable layer and the second curable layer are imprinted in a single step with an imprinting stamp having a structure with a depth greater than the thickness of the second curable layer. The first curable layer and the second curable layer are cured in a single step to form a first cured layer and a second cured layer. The imprinting stamp is removed.
Abstract:
A method is provided for producing an adhesive material (1) for a medical application such as a dressing. The method includes at least one step for coating a first surface (2b) of any substrate (4), called receiving substrate, using a layer of previously coated silicone on an anti-adherent liner (3). The silicone layer is an adhesive gel (2). The method further includes, prior to the coating step, a corona treatment step for the surface of the adhesive silicone gel that is intended to coat the receiving substrate (4).
Abstract:
Provided is a method for manufacturing a flexible metal-clad laminate using a casting method, including: (a) forming a first polyimide layer having a coefficient of linear thermal expansion of 25 ppm/K or less above a metal layer; (b) plasma-treating a surface of the first polyimide layer; and (c) forming a second polyimide layer having a coefficient of linear thermal expansion of 25 ppm/K or lower above the first polyimide layer. The flexible metal-clad laminate according to the present invention can have excellent adhesion between the polymer film and the metal conductive layer, a low dimensional change, and a low production cost, because of superior casting workability, even though the thickness of polyimide becomes increased.
Abstract:
A method of forming a biocompatible or biologically inert article for use in an application in which the article will make contact with at least one tissue, organ, or fluid within a human or animal body is provided. The method generally comprises providing an article having an external surface; selecting chemical precursors; using a means to direct one or more chemical precursors towards or to apply such chemical precursors to the external surface; activating the chemical precursors by exposing said precursors to atmospheric pressure plasma; and grafting and/or cross-linking the chemical precursors to form a solid coating adjacent to the external surface of the article.
Abstract:
A laminate body includes a base material, a film-like or a membrane-like undercoat layer that is formed in at least a portion of the outer surface of the base material, and an atomic layer deposition film that is formed on a surface opposite to a surface coming into contact with the base material among both surfaces of the undercoat layer in the thickness direction thereof. At least a portion of precursors of the atomic layer deposition film bind to the undercoat layer, and the atomic layer deposition film is formed into a membrane shape covering the undercoat layer.
Abstract:
A method of integrating a fluorine-based dielectric with a metallization scheme is described. The method includes forming a fluorine-based dielectric layer on a substrate, forming a metal-containing layer on the substrate, and adding a buffer layer or modifying a composition of the fluorine-based dielectric layer proximate an interface between the fluorine-based dielectric layer and the metal-containing layer.
