  • Process for protecting a surface from non-desired contamination
    Patent number: 5948545
    Abstract: A process for protecting a surface from non-desired contamination and for facilitating removal of said contamination from said surface, characterized by the steps: a) preparing a solution of polysaccharides containing at least two components, wherein one component is constituted by a first polysaccharide which, when precipitated from a solution by evaporation of the solvent thereof, directly forms a film and wherein the second component is constituted by a second polysaccharide which, when precipitated from a solution by evaporation of the solvent thereof, forms a film via at least partial gel formation, or by interaction with said first polysaccharide, said films being redissolvable or swellable: b) applying the solution from step a) onto said surface before subjected to contamination: c) allowing the applied solution to dry so as to form a solid film on said surface via at least partial gel formation: d) treating the film-coated surface with a liquid capable of redissolving film or provided swelling thereof
