Abstract: An ink jet head is formed with a nozzle surface having a liquid repellent characteristic. The nozzle surface comprises a condensation product made from a hydrolyzable silane compound having a fluorine containing group and a hydrolyzable silane compound having a cationic polymerizable group.

Abstract: Cationically stablished aqueous silica dispersion, method for its production and its use. A method is described for the production of cationically stabilised silica in which silica is cationically stabilised in the form of an aqueous dispersion or a powder by mixing with an acid aminosilane solution. A cationically stabilised silica powder may be obtained by removing the solvent. The cationically stabilised silica dispersion obtained is highly storage stable. Mixing with organic binding agents such as PVA is possible without a significant increase in viscosity. The dispersions are particularly suitable for coating slips for printing media, such as inkjet paper, but also for the surface treatment of substrates, e.g. for the hard coating of plastics, or in parting compounds or abrasives and polishing agents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the dispersion of fine-particle surface-modified inorganic powders in liquid media, with use of siloxanes. A process for the preparation of a dispersion of inorganic particles in a liquid medium is described, in which inorganic particles which have been surface-modified so that they have at least one organic group on the surface are mixed in a liquid medium with an organosiloxane, where at least one organic group of the organosiloxane corresponds to the at least one organic group on the surface of the inorganic particles.

Abstract: A coating composition comprising a) a condensation product of at least one hydrolyzable silane having a fluorine-containing group and at least one hydrolyzable silane having a cationically polymerizable group, and b) a cationic initiator, provides, upon curing, substrates with an alkali-resistant, liquid-repellent coating.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pigment, the smallest size of which corresponds at least to a multiple of the greatest wavelength of ultraviolet light or the smallest wavelength of visible light. Said pigment comprises at least one defined diffractive structure, the spatial periodicity, of which has a spatial period corresponding at least to a multiple of the wavelength of ultraviolet light. In particular, the inventive pigment has a laminar shape. The method for producing such pigments comprises the following steps: a) a defined diffractive structure is created in and/or on a film-type support: b) the defined diffractive structure is coated with a sealant on said support: c) the film-type support processed in steps a) and b) is comminuted so as to form pigment particles.
