The present invention relates to a method of activating an organic coating to enhance adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or to other entities comprising applying a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent to the organic coating. The invention also relates to a coated substrate having an activated coating, wherein the adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or other entities has been enhanced by application of a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent to the coating. The invention further relates to an activation treatment for an organic coating to enhance adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or to other entities comprising a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent and a method for the preparation of the activation treatment.

Activation method using modifying agent

The present invention relates to inorganic-organic hybrids (IOHs), methods for their preparation and their use as fire resistant materials or components of fire resistant materials. More specifically, the invention relates to polyamide fire resistant formulations containing IOHs which have application in the production of fire resistant articles or parts thereof for use in the transportation, building, construction and electrical or optical industries.

Fire resistant material

The present invention generally relates to self healing polymer materials comprising thermoset and thermoplastic polymers. The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing self healing polymer materials, methods of post-curing and healing the self healing polymer materials, composite materials comprising self healing polymer materials and methods of preparing the composite materials. In an attempt to develop improved structural materials, polymers and polymer materials have been identified that can be used in materials to act as self healing agents to repair structural damage occurring in the materials. The self healing polymer materials that have been identified are capable of being healed under post-curing or healing conditions.

Self healing polymer materials

Device for improved method of blasting

A method of activating an organic coating, a coated substrate having an activated coating and an activation treatment for an organic coating. In particular, the activation method improves the adhesion of the organic coating to further coating layers and/or to other entities.

Activation method

A conductive element suitable for the transmission of an electrical operating signal to a detonator, which conductive element comprises a conductive filler homogeneously dispersed in a polymer matrix.

Electrical conductive element

Surface treatment of polymers

Surface treatment of rubbers and rubber-based materials
