This invention relates to a metallic substrate having on its surface an adherent photo-product coating, and a method for coating that substrate, which coating is formed by exposing to light in the presence of an oxygen source, a reactant mixture comprising: 2,2'4,4'-tetrahydroxybenzophenone, with (1) ammonium hydroxide and optionally a trace amount of at least one reactive metal, or (2) ammonium hydroxide and at least one metal salt, or (3) at least one metal salt and at least one amine, or (4) ammonium hydroxide, at least one metal salt and at least one amine; in a suitable solvent.

This invention relates to photo-product compositions, and a process for making those compositions, comprising the reactant mixture formed by contacting: 2,2',4,4'-tetrahydroxybenzophenone, with (1) ammonium hydroxide and optionally a trace amount of at least one metal, or (2) ammonium hydroxide and at least one metal salt, or (3) at least one metal salt and at least one amine, or (4) ammonium hydroxide, at least one metal salt and at least one amine; in a suitable solvent, wherein a photo-product is formed upon exposure of this reactant mixture to light in the presence of an oxygen source.

A method for behavior modification using olfactory stimuli. The method comprises microencapsulating different smelling odors into a patch such that at least one odor is dominant and at least one odor is subservient, placing the patch on a hand associated with the behavior to be modified, scratching the patch when the urge to engage in the behavior to be modified occurs, thereby temporarily releasing the subsurvient odor, smelling the patch with the released subservient odor to act as a stimulus to effect behavior modification, and smelling the patch after the urge to engage in the behavior to be modified passes thereby reinforcing the behavior modification with the dominant odor.
