Abstract: A monodispersed glycol suspension having excellent dispersion stability at a pH within a wide range, comprising a monodispersed suspension in a glycol of spherical fine particles of an amorphous inorganic oxide having an average particle diameter of 0.15 to 5 micrometers and a relative particle size standard deviation of 1.0 to 1.5 and containing glycol bonded to its surface in amounts of 0.003 to 5 millimoles glycol, per gram of fine particles. This monodispersed suspension is useful as a raw material for the production of a polyester film having improved slipperiness.

Abstract: A monodispersed glycol suspension having excellent dispersion stability, including a monodispersed suspension in a glycol of spherical fine particles of an amorphous inorganic oxide having an average particle diameter of 0.05 to 5 micrometers and a relative particle size standard deviation of 1.0 to 1.5 and containing glycol bonded to its surface. This monodispersed suspension is useful as a raw material for the production of a polyester film having improved slipperiness.

Abstract: Spherical fine particles of colored resin are provided. The fine particles are of a spherical shape and are superior in heat resistance, solvent resistance, and chemical resistance, and sufficiently satisfactory in durability and coloring, and industrially advantageous. The spherical fine particles of colored resin are made by incorporating an amino resin cured matter and an inorganic pigment into one body, and a ratio of the inorganic pigment against a total amount of the amino resin cured matter and inorganic pigment is in a range of from about 1 to 30% by weight.

Abstract: A method for the production of inorganic oxide particles by a procedure comprising the steps of dispersing inorganic oxide particles as seed particles in a water-containing alcohol solution thereby preparing a suspension of said seed particles and adding a hydrolyzable and condensable organic metal compound to said suspension thereby effecting growth of said seed particles, which method further comprises causing the presence in said water-containing alcohol solution of an alkylene glycol having 2-8 carbon atoms, in an amount in the range of 1 to 50% by weight, based on the amount of said water-containing alcohol solution.

Abstract: The surfaces of organic polymeric coatings applied to detail parts or components are subject to contamination and ultraviolet degradation prior to final overcoating procedures. The sources of ultraviolet exposure are light transmission through windows, artificial lighting, or temporary exterior exposure of the detail part coated surface. The ultraviolet light altered surface layer is effectively removed by treatment with a mixture of a glycol ether, an alcohol, a ketone and deionized water, without removing the main body of the coating. This results in good adhesion of a subsequently applied touch-up coating or overcoating. The process can also be used for cleaning metals.
