Abstract:
Provided a transparent conductive layer and an image display device employing the transparent conductive layer. The transparent conductive layer includes a conductive layer containing a metal oxide and a protective layer formed on the conductive layer. The protective layer contains a hydrolyzed and polycondensated product of silicon alkoxide and at least one of mercapto compound and its hydrolyzed and polycondensated product.
Abstract:
There are included the steps of forming a structure, in which a first adhesive layer, a resin layer, and a metal foil are laminated sequentially from a bottom, on a release layer of a plastic film that has the release layer on a surface, forming metal layer patterns by patterning the metal foil, and forming the first adhesive layer, the resin layer, and the metal layer patterns sequentially from the bottom on a transparent substrate by separating the release layer from the first adhesive layer along an interface and then pasting the first adhesive layer onto the transparent substrate.
Abstract:
An article, illustratively a lamp bulb envelope, for creating a moire effect has a plurality of transparent and nontransparent regions on its surface. When viewed from a point external to the envelope, the individual nontransparent regions on the surface of the envelope which is nearest to the point appear as superimposed upon and intersecting with nontransparent regions on the surface furtherest from the point. The apparent intersections produce a moire effect which is enhanced by varying the line of sight to the bulb. The family of moire curves appear as transversely running curves which pass through the points of apparent intersection of individual nontransparent regions along the near and far faces. The nontransparent regions may be either light diffusive (translucent) or light nontransmissive (opaque) in nature and may be created by abrading the surface of the envelope or by application of opaque or diffusive coatings onto the surface of the envelope. When an actual filament, arranged within the envelope, is energized to emit light, an apparent filament appears in inverted relationship with the actual filament within the envelope.
Abstract:
A photoflash lamp having a glass envelope with a clear protective exterior coating comprising a photopolymer reinforced with glass fibers. In applying the coating, a long strand of glass fibers is wrapped about the lamp envelope, which is then dipped in a liquid photopolymer, or short lengths of glass fiber are dispersed throughout the liquid photopolymer, either by premixing or application after dipping. The wet-coated lamp is then cure-hardened by a short period of irradiation with a source of ultraviolet light.
Abstract:
A METHOD FOR PRODUCING A GLARE-REDUCING COATING UPON A SURFACE, FOR INSTANCE THE EXTERNAL GLASS SURFACE OF THE VIEWING WINDOW OF AN EVACUATED AND SEALED CATHODE-RAY TUBE, COMPRISING PREPARING A COATING FORMULATION CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF A SILCEOUS POLYMER, AN ORGANIC POLYMER, AND A VOLATILE ORGANIC LIQUID VEHICLE FOR THE POLYMERS, PRODUCING A SPRAY OF DISCRETE DROPLETS OF THE FORMULATION IN A GASEOUS MEDIUM, INTERCEPTING THE SPRAY UPON THE SURFACE TO PRODUCE A LAYER OF DROPLETS THEREON, FLASHING OFF SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE VEHICLE PRESENT IN THE LAYER LEAVING A SUBSTANTIALLY DRY TEXTURED POLYMERIC LAYER ON THE SURFACE, AND THEN BAKING THE DRY LAYER AT ABOUT 100 TO 200*C. UNTIL THE LAYER IS CURED.
