Abstract: The invention relates to: a composition for the cold-end treatment of hollow glass articles, characterized in that it is an aqueous solution containing 0.01% to 1% by weight of solids of carnauba wax; a process for the cold-end treatment of hollow glass articles, comprising the spraying of this composition; and a hollow glass article thus obtained.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the surface coloration of paper characterized in that, in a first step, the paper surface is treated with a water soluble dye and, subsequently, in a second step, the paper surface is treated with a fixing agent.

Abstract: The invention concerns a composition for providing a substrate, after said substrate has been coated, with barrier properties to oils and greases, and complementarily to water. The invention is characterised in that it is obtainable by dispersion, at a temperature ranging between room temperature and about 70° C., of at least a film-forming gum or resin, not water-soluble and solubilized in at least a water-miscible solvent, in an aqueous solution containing at least a water soluble and lipophobic film-forming compound selected among proteins, polysaccharides and their mixtures, said composition having a temperature ranging between room temperature and about 70° C. The invention also concerns a method for preparing said composition, kits containing same, and a method for providing a substrate with barrier properties, and their uses, in particular for making packages and particularly packages for foodstuff.

Abstract: Provided is an electrodepositable coating composition of a resinous phase dispersed in an aqueous medium, the resinous phase including (a) an active hydrogen-containing, cationic salt group-containing resin; and (b) an at least partially blocked polyisocyanate curing agent.

Abstract: A coating material for forming an information display surface of the present invention contains a water absorbent substance and a water-soluble substance. The water absorbent substance is protein such as collagen or polysaccharide such as cellulose. A display medium has a base material for display made of polyolefin type resin and the like on which the information display surface made of the coating material is formed. Another coating material for forming the information display surface contains an ultraviolet curable resin and a natural organic substance as major components. The natural organic substance is collagen, wool, keratin and so on.
