  • Publication number: 20140199516
    Abstract: A coating method through HVOF spraying that comprises generating a combustion jet in a combustion chamber connected to one end of a barrel while controlling the temperature of the combustion jet by supply of an inert gas to the jet, feeding resin coating materials into the temperature-controlled combustion jet and leading them to pass through the barrel, and spouting the coating particles through a spout port along with the combustion jet therethrough to thereby coat the substrate surface; wherein the length of the barrel, the temperature of the combustion jet and the physical properties of the coating particles are defined so as to satisfy both the following formulae (1) and (2). Numerical ? ? Formula ? ? 1 ? × t r > 0.5 ( 1 ) Numerical ? ? Formula ? ? 2 2.5 < Tav Tcp < 4.

  • Publication number: 20140162061
    Abstract: The invention has for its object to provide a process of producing a conducting material suitable for being filled in TSVs for LSI chip 3D package, etc. A solution containing a monomer that provides a conducting polymer, anions, and metal ions such as Ag+ or Cu2+ is irradiated with ultraviolet radiation or light having the energy necessary for exciting electrons up to an energy level capable of reducing the metal ions to precipitate a conducting polymer/metal composite. This enables an electrical conductor of high electrical conductivity to be precipitated faster than could be achieved by conventional processes.

  • Publication number: 20100136229
    Abstract: A coating method of the invention is characterized by using particles each being an aggregate comprising particles far smaller than that, and heating them at a temperature lower than the melting point and blowing and depositing the same to an object to be treated at a supersonic velocity. The warm spray of the invention is characterized in that standard particles and addition particles with a particle diameter larger than that are mixed so that the K-value determined by the following relation is 1 or more and 2 or less: K=A×(B/C)×D, A: mass % of the content of additive particles, B: center particle diameter of standard particle (?m), C: center particle diameter of additive particle (?m), D: (maximum particle diameter?minimum particle diameter) of additive particle/10 (?m). The invention intends to deposit micro oxide crystals without using an adhesive or the like, with no alteration to the function thereof, and also attain a dense layer with no substantial voids.
