US Classification:
427521, 427202, 427369
Abstract:
Methods for applying and curing powder coatings, and for imparting a surface effect, e. g. , texture or smoothness, to powder coated surfaces are provided. Preferred methods include pressing a textured release medium against the uncured powder coating and then curing the coating to form a thermally stable powder coating surface with the negative image of the texture on the release medium on its surface.

International Classification:
H05K 3/10
US Classification:
29846
Abstract:
Methods are provided for manufacturing electronic devices such as transistors, solar arrays, optical display arrays, portions of such devices and arrays, and the like. The methods involve providing a substrate having a surface with a pattern of raised portions and recessed portions, adding a conductive material to the surface of the substrate, and manipulating the surface of the substrate to provide the conductive material only in the recessed portions.
Disclosed is a method of detecting a cured silicone coating applied to a paper substrate or the like in web form, comprising adding an effective amount of a fluorescent pigment to the silicone coating formulation to be applied to the substrate, applying the coating to the substrate, curing the silicone coating, scanning the coated surface of the substrate with a UV light source, and detecting the fluorescence of the coating. Also disclosed is the coated paper product with which the method of the invention can be employed.
