Said process comprises: depositing onto the substrate of an optical article a first layer of a first curable composition comprising at least one cleavable surfactant, curing at least partially said first curable composition, thereby forming a first coating, forming a second coating onto said first coating, wherein, after said first curable composition has been deposited onto the substrate, and before deposition of the second coating, said optical article is subjected to a treatment step resulting in a cleavage of at least a portion of the cleavable surfactant. Curable compositions containing cleavable surfactants and optical articles having deposited thereon stacks of coatings formed by the above process are also described.

Method of adjusting surface topography

Номер: US20130074765A1
Принадлежит: Inca Digital Printers Ltd

Methods for adjusting the topography of a surface, such as for making a support surface substantially flat, e.g. for mitigating variations in a print gap, are described. The topography of the surface is first measured, and then a shim layer is printed to approximate the topography to a reference topography, the thickness of the layer being calculated using the measurements. For example the print gap comprising the distance between the surface of a printer table and printing means, such as a printhead. The print gap is first measured before at least one layer of ink is printed, using the printing means, at a selected position based on the measured print gap. The thickness of the layer of ink is selected to mitigate the variations in the print gap. In some embodiments, a substrate support surface may then be arranged over the printer table, so that the printed layer is disposed between the printer table and the substrate support surface. The apparatus can compensate for variations in the print gap due both to irregularities in the printer table surface and misalignment in mounting of the printing means. Also described is a printer table produced according to the methods described.

A method of treatment for synthetic or natural fibre or yarn includes coating the fibre/yarn with a dispersion of carbon nanotubes in a coating composition which is cured by actinic radiation, such as UV, to provide a flexible conductive layer on the fibre/yarn. The liquid coating composition is sheared along the direction of a long axis of the yarn as it is applied to the yarn whereby the carbon nanotubes are substantially aligned prior to curing of the coating layer to provide improved longitudinal conductance. The method provides conductive fibre/yarn, from which anti-static textiles and fabrics can be formed, by treatment of conventional fibre/yarn and in a method with low energy consumption. The improved conductance allows thin or partial (e.g. stripe) coating layers to be used for yarns which provide good feel and handle, combined with good conductivity, for textiles formed from the yarns Coating compositions for use in the method are disclosed as are anti-static yarns, fibres fabrics and textiles resulting from the method. 115-.

Example dock levelers installed at a vehicle loading dock include pivotal or otherwise vertically adjustable deck plates with special coatings on the deck's upper surface. In some examples, the coating improves traction and addresses various thermal issues, such as condensation and thermal strain between a polymeric coating and a steel deck plate. In some examples, when indoor and outdoor air create a temperature differential across opposite faces of the deck, the coating is designed such that a median temperature of the temperature differential occurs near an interface where the coating bonds to the steel plate's upper surface. In some examples, the coating includes particles of different sizes and colors embedded within and covered by a polymeric base material. As traffic abrades the coating, the different colored particles become exposed at different levels of wear, thereby providing a visual signal indicating when the coating needs to be touched up or replaced.
