Abstract:
The invention relates to a cooking utensil comprising a hollow bowl with a base and a side wall rising from the base, and including at least one fragile area. The bowl has a concave inner surface for receiving food, as well as a convex outer surface. The utensil is coated successively, from the bowl, with a hard base and a nonstick coating, which covers the hard base and includes at least one layer containing at least one fluorocarbon resin. The hard base has a layer that is at least broken at the fragile area. The invention also relates to a method for producing such a utensil.
Abstract:
Apparatus and method are provided for electric induction heating and/or stirring of a molten electrically conductive composition in a containment vessel with the apparatus being removably insertable in the molten composition. An induction coil embedded in refractory or a coating is submerged in the composition and used to heat and/or stir the molten composition either externally or internally to the refractory or coating.
Abstract:
A brush for applying a powdered cosmetic composition, comprising: a tuft of synthetic hairs comprising at least two groups of hairs having, at their free ends, cross-sections of different surface area; and a handle supporting the tuft of hairs from a connecting portion of the hairs, characterized in that the groups of hairs have, in cross-section, the same surface area along their connecting portion.
Abstract:
An electric induction gas-sealed tunnel furnace and process are provided. The exterior of the furnace's enclosure that forms a closed tunnel region is surrounded at least along its longitudinal length by a gas-tight barrier chamber that can be filled with a barrier gas to a different pressure than the pressure of the process gas in the closed tunnel region of the furnace. The inductors used to induction heat strips or plates in the closed tunnel region can be positioned within or outside of the gas-tight barrier chamber around the longitudinal length of the closed tunnel region.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to containers having, on all or part of their inner surface, a mineral-oxide-based coating obtained by sol-gel deposition, which containers are found to be particularly suitable for the packaging of cosmetic compositions.
Abstract:
A dispenser includes an end piece defining a product dispensing orifice able to be opened downward opposite a surface located under the end piece. The end piece is able to be maneuvered between a predispensing position, in which the dispensing orifice is closed off and the volume located under the dispensing orifice opposite the receiving surface is entirely free, and a product dispensing position. The dispenser includes a device to protect the dispensing orifice, protruding below the dispensing orifice in the predispensing position and in the dispensing position, in order to hinder contact between a body surface of a user of the dispenser and the dispensing orifice.
Abstract:
A non-stick coating with improved scratch resistance comprises an undercoat applied to a substrate, coated with a primary coat comprising a fluorocarbon resin and one or more fluorocarbon resin-based outer coats, characterized in that the undercoat is exclusively constituted by the polymer oxy-1,4-phenylene-oxy-1,4-phenylene-carbonyl-1,4-phenylene, known as PEEK.
Abstract:
Applicator (1) for applying a product to the eyelashes, comprising a core (7), comprising two arms that are twisted together along at least part of their length, the core successively holding by clamping a first applicator member (5), produced in one piece and having a plurality of applicator elements, and a second applicator member (6) comprising a plurality of bristles.
Abstract:
Provided is a heating utensil comprising a support intended to be heated, said support comprising a surface covered by a non-stick coating, said non-stick coating comprising at least one sintered layer based on fluorocarbon resin forming a continuous network. Said sintered layer additionally comprises a mixture of magnetizable particles and of non-magnetizable particles, some of said magnetizable particles being oriented so as to form a three-dimensional pattern. Also provided is a method for producing such a heating utensil.
