Publication number: 20230381811Abstract: A process for coating a product by ion exchange including: a) providing a product that contains a surface segregating species (SSS) having a low surface energy component and an ionic component wherein the SSS has segregated to an outer surface of the product to form an activated surface; and b) treating the activated surface of the product with a liquid containing a surface modifying agent comprising one or more polyionic species, wherein the polyionic species is attracted to and deposits on the activated surface through a process of ion exchange.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: Bluescope Steel LimitedInventors: Shane A. MACLAUGHLIN, Binbin XI

Patent number: 9879155Abstract: A coated substrate including: a substrate including a treated layer, a photocatalytic layer, and a protective layer between the photocatalytic layer and the treated layer, the protective layer comprising colloidal particles dispersed in a matrix, the colloidal particles including first and second types of particles that differ in their respective particle size distributions and which together provide a physical barrier by virtue of the first, smaller particles at least partially filling interstices between the second, larger particles and thereby impede photocatalyst derived degradation of the treated layer, the first type of colloid particles comprising hydrolyzed silica based material such as reactive silica condensate particles or polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes, or mixtures thereof, the protective layer having an effect of less than 20 delta E units on the color and gloss of the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2013Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: Bluescope Steel LimitedInventors: Shane A. Maclaughlin, Binbin Xi, Evan J. Evans, Edward M. Boge

Patent number: 9207165Abstract: The present invention relates to a sample chamber for laser ablation analysis of fluid inclusions, comprising a sample cell having a sample cell through-hole extending along the vertical direction and a sample channel extending through the sample cell in a direction transverse to the vertical direction and communicating with the sample cell through-hole. A transparent element is arranged on each of the top and bottom sides of the sample cell through-hole, and is fixed to the sample cell through a fixing ring. The sample chamber further comprises a base comprising a viewing hole and a receiving portion for receiving the sample cell, wherein the viewing hole is coaxially aligned with the sample cell through-hole when the sample cell is placed within the receiving portion. According to the sample chamber of the present invention, it is only necessary to change the sample cell during replacement of the sample chamber, which leads to a convenient operation.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2012Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignees: CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION, SINOPEC EXPLORATION & PRODUCTION RESEARCH INSTITUTEInventors: Zhirong Zhang, Tenger, Dan Rao, Weijun Shi, Qigui Jiang, Jianzhong Qin, Qu Zhang, Binbin Xi
