Abstract: A method for rendering glass nonfogging (to condensation fog) by sandwiching the glass between two electrodes such that the glass functions as the dielectric of a capacitor, a large alternating current (AC) voltage is applied across the electrodes for a selected time period causing the glass to absorb a charge, and the electrodes are removed. The glass absorbs a charge from the electrodes rendering it nonfogging. The glass surface is undamaged by application of the AC voltage, and normal optical properties are unaffected. This method can be applied to optical surfaces such as lenses, auto windshields, mirrors, etc., wherever condensation fog on glass is a problem.

Abstract: An improved high dielectric constant ink useful in making thick film capacitors is disclosed in which a dielectric material is combined with a glass bonding agent having at least one electropositive element therein which is common with the powdered, high dielectric material which is one selected from the group consisting of chemically pure barium titanate and chemically pure barium titanate modified with from about 0.125% to about 5.0% by weight of a metal oxide additive. The glass bonding agent is an alkali-free binder comprising from 3 percent to 7 percent by total weight of the dielectric and binder materials.

Abstract: A ceramic compound having the formula (La.sub.x A.sup.+2.sub.1-x).sub.2 (Ti.sub.x B.sup.+5.sub.1-x).sub.2 O.sub.7 wherein A.sup.+2 is a positive divalent element selected from the group consisting of Ba, Ca, Cd, Mg, Sr and mixtures thereof and B.sup.+5 is a positive pentavalent element selected from the group consisting of Sb, Mo, Nb, Ta, W and mixtures thereof and x is a numeral ranging from 0.70 to 0.99.
