Abstract: Disclosed is a method for repairing a damaged area of a silicone hard-coat layer on an automotive resin glazing substrate by applying an intermediate coating composition (I) to the damaged area and applying a topcoat coating composition (II) to the intermediate coating composition. The intermediate coating composition (I) contains (A) a reactive siloxane compound and (B) silica. The topcoat coating composition (II) contains (C) an alkoxysilane having a UV-absorbing functional group, (D) a multifunctional alkoxysilane, (E) a reactive siloxane compound, (F) colloidal silica, and (G) phosphoric acid. The method forms a coating having the same appearance and physical properties as the underlying silicone hard-coat layer.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a coated article includes the steps of (A) applying a radiation-curable coating which contains a specific siloxane acrylate to an organic resin substrate so as to obtain an uncured film-covered article, and (B) irradiating the uncured film-covered article with radiation to cure the film. The leveling ability of the coating can be improved without diluting the coating more than necessary and without adding more leveling agent than needed.

Abstract: A control apparatus for a radiotherapy irradiation system in which a calculation time required for calculation to be performed after restrictions are modified is shortened. The control apparatus includes a unit for setting an initial solution indicating an initial irradiated beam weight, a unit for inputting restrictions according to a prescription, and a unit for setting an evaluation function under the restrictions. The control apparatus further includes a unit for iteratively calculating the evaluation function until the evaluation function is minimized and determining an irradiated beam weight optimizing irradiation, and unit for outputting an optimal solution indicating an optimal irradiated beam weight to the irradiation system. After restrictions are modified, a new evaluation function is set under the modified restrictions. An irradiated beam weight is then determined for optimizing irradiation.
