Abstract: A glass coating agent is provided which is adapted for application onto the surface of a glass substrate and, upon heating, forms a metal oxide layer. The glass coating agent comprises a metallic compound represented by formula (I): R1k-mM(OCOR2)m??(I) wherein M represents a metal atom selected from the group consisting of tin, titanium, indium, silicon, zirconium, and aluminum; R1 represents a straight-chain, branched, or cyclic alkyl, alkenyl, or aryl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R2 represents a branched alkyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms; k is a number representing the valence of the metal atom M; and m is a number of 1 to k. Further, there is provided a glass coating method using the glass coating agent. According to the glass coating agent, a metal oxide layer having excellent fastness properties and free from haze can be formed on the surface of glass substrates. According to the glass coating method, the metal oxide layer can be continuously and stably produced.

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for manufacturing a plastic container coated with a diamond-like carbon film comprising; an outer electrode in which a chamber is formed, the shape of the chamber being comparable to an outline of the plastic container, the plastic container being received in the chamber, an inner surface of the chamber of the outer electrode being formed in the shape where the plastic container having a protrusion can be received within the chamber; an inner electrode inserted into the plastic container which is received within the chamber of the outer electrode; and an attaching member which has an inner surface, the shape of the inner surface being comparable to the outline of the plastic container, the attaching member covering an area where the protrusion is formed when the attaching member is attached to the plastic container, the attaching member being able to be received within the chamber of the outer electrode in company with the plastic container in state where the attaching member is

Abstract: DLC film formed on at least one surface of a plastic film, and this DLC film has a composition comprising 75 to 55 mol% of carbon and 25 to 45 mol% of hydrogen. And this DLC film is formed by a plasma deposition process while the plastic film is loaded with a tensile force in a biaxial direction.
