A method for producing raised structures serving as grip nubs on a surface of a pencil, in which, with the help of a nozzle, a plastic preparation is applied. The plastic preparation includes a radiation-curable plastic mass and has the following composition: 

Method for producing raised structures on the surface of a pencil

A method for producing surface coatings on articles, such as stick surfaces, coats at least a part of the surface with a coating. The coating has expandable particles. One surface region of the coating is treated so that the particles expand, while another surface region of the coating remains untreated. The corresponding article, such as a stick, has a surface provided at least partly with a coating with said expandable particles. The particles of the coating are expanded in one surface region thereof and unexpanded in another surface region. The former surface region projects beyond the surface of the latter surface region.

Method of producing surface coatings on articles, and article having a surface coating

A wood-encased pencil for writing, sketching, drawing, and cosmetic purposes includes grip surfaces or grip nubs projecting from at least one surface thereof as handling raised structures. The structures are of a plastic material and are applied in the form of an initially flowable preparation which includes at least one plastic and that later solidifies to give the raised structures. In a first variant, the preparation is anhydrous and is of a radiation-curable plastic. In a second variant, the preparation is, likewise, anhydrous, but its solidification is based on physical drying. For such a purpose, the preparation is of an organic solvent as well as a plastic.

Wood-encased pencil for writing, sketching, drawing, and cosmetic purposes

A wood-encased pencil has raised structures formed of a synthetic material. The raised structures project above the surface at which the pencil is held and the structures form handling or gripping surfaces to increase the gripability of the pencil. The raised structures are formed by applying to the pencil an initially flowable plastic composition that later solidifies to form the raised structures. The plastic composition has, as a principal constituent, an aqueous polymer dispersion that hardens to become water-resistant.
