L.B. Bohle has been a technological leader in all film coating applications for many years. L.B. Bohle Coaters guarantees good product processing at the highest profitability. It asserts its ...

Powder coatings, substances that are decorative, protective, or both, are developed by applying a coating powder to a substrate and then fusing the coating into a continuous film by applying heat or ...

Thin film dewetting dynamics refer to the processes by which continuous thin layers of material destabilise and retract to form isolated droplets or patterned structures. This phenomenon, governed by ...

For telescopes operating in the vacuum of space, or optical equipment in extreme environments, existing coatings are often insufficient. Researchers have turned to atomic layer deposition and ...

Spin coating is a widely used technique for depositing thin, uniform films onto flat substrates. It involves the application of a liquid material onto a rotating substrate, which spreads the material ...

To meet anti-reflection requirements during the manufacture of optical components and glass products, thin films are applied to glass surfaces through an innovative and proprietary vacuum and high ...

Replacing solvent-based paints with greener, water-based counterparts sounds nice, but the performance of those alternatives just doesn’t cut it for demanding applications in the furniture or ...

Climate change, finite resources, increasing burdens on the environment mean that more and more industries are focusing on sustainable production. And this is also the case in the production of ...

Scratching an oil film with a hard object exposes the underlying surface, but only briefly. The oil flows quickly and reestablishes a continuous film. The flow properties make oil films self-healing, ...

Scientists from the Madison Area Technical College in the United States have tested superhydrophobic self-cleaning, anti-soiling coatings that, if applied to photovoltaic modules, can purportedly ...

A short description of each application process and the properties of the coating developed is given in the below sections. In zinc electroplating, the items to be coated are immersed in a solution ...
