Researchers have developed a new anti-reflective coating that boosts the efficiency of solar panels and allows sunlight to be absorbed from almost any angle.
Scientists from the Future Chips Constellation (FCC) at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York have created the coating using nanotechnology — engineering devices on a molecular scale.
They are hopeful that it [...]
My god, I almost feel like I've abandoned you guys in the powder coating blog. I just wanted to pop in and drop a note that I've just been extremely busy at our shop. My rookie (who is also my right hand man) has left and went to school up at wyotech, so I am without the one person I could depend on to take care of some of the load of grunt work. I haven't even had a chance to get around to doing
Ok, so I've touched on some of the basics of powder coating equipment up until this point. Today I'm going to break down the different models of guns that are available to people getting started with powder coating, their benefits, and drawbacks compared to their competition.The very first powder coating gun I ever began working with was a Chicago Electric System from Harbor Freight. I was actuall
Lately in my online research to see what some of the most common questions and misconceptions about powder coating are, I have come across many people inquiring whether or not powder coating wheels was safe and reliable. Unfortunately, while I like to make most things as simple as possible for people to understand, since after all, this is a beginner/intermediate introduction to powder coating, th
In my previous article, we discussed various situations with powder coating wheels and how they affected the wheel after it was cured. It dawned on me today that while yes, many people have been wondering if it was safe or not, many others are simply trying to decide which style and what powder coating system or powder coating equipment to actually do their wheels with.Powder coating wheels is pre
I touched on it in my last powder coating article, about stepping up my powder coating services by expanding to a larger powder coat oven. The benefits of this are great, as it will allow me to step away from the smaller, low income pieces, and get into the larger profits of motorcycle powder coating, more automotive powder coating, and plenty of other opportunities.Eventually, I will be upgrading
The most important thing to learn as a beginner and starting out with powder coating is a phrase coined from the auto body industry."Any monkey can spray a car, but preparing it correctly so the job comes out right is the hard part"That's never been more true then when it comes to powder coating. Your piece must be meticulous, absolutely spotless, and free of any contamination for the best job pos

You're going to hear me talk about a few companies on this site that have been extremely good to me as I was starting out. First and fore-most, Eastwood Company is the entire reason I got into this after stumbling across their very cheap powder-coating gun, and I've used many of their powders with great success. Another company I have been extremely happy with in regards to supply is Columbia Coat
It's a lot like painting, with half the mess! Powder Coating has a few very distinct advantages over conventional paint aside from it's toughness and durability factors.The powder particles are a dry, almost dust like consistency compared to the liquid based paints which have pigments suspended in a solution that has to dry out. In a clean setup using only one color, powder coating over spray can
Currently, I've been having a blast powder coating for the past 3 years. I am not a professional shop, nor do I own big money equipment, but frankly, people love my work. Patience and preparation are 2 of the things I have learned in my endeavors with powder coating, but I have picked up so many different tricks by... well... simply trying them. Powder Coating has been around for years, and with n

Floors are often laid with materials like jib create, that deteriorate from moisture and abrasion. Kitchens, baths, and work areas have liquids and other materials that end up on flooring which can cause spalling, erosion and flaking. A coating of 100% solid epoxy can level those floors and seal them from further damage. [...]

A wooden grained ambiance makes the perfect patio deck and if properly cared for will always look good against the background of the backyard or at a home with a view. Of course, a weather deck, gazebo or patio that is mismanaged, let go or in a state of disrepair can look hideous and unbecoming [...]
The first step in applying an epoxy concrete floor coating is to remove any part of the floor that is loose or could become loose in the near future. An example would be concrete, tar, paint, or any type of adhesive.

Question: Will the coating reduce the pipe diameter, decrease water velocity or restrict flow?
Depending on the diameter of the pipe, the epoxy coating is applied to a thickness between 0.20 and 5 millimeters, resulting in a corresponding reduction in interior pipe diameters. Applied to these specifications, it has never caused velocity or delivery problems in [...]
The latest volume of The MISUMI Voice talks about coating technology and I find it relevant to what we are learning in our course.

By Carol SolomonGot stress?Most people do . . . and it can be hard to deal with. Stress takes its toll, both mentally and physically. Stress is listed as one of the major contributing factors to just about everything these days. And if you already have some physical or mental ailment, stress will make it worse.No matter what causes your stress, you need ways to deal with it.And it's EASY to reach for chocolate – that immediate, sweet life preserver that doesn't talk back or demand anything of us. Remember, life is hard . . . food is easy.Do you recognize these patterns?Some people reach for food in ANTICIPATION of a challenging event or task, in order to calm down or psyche themselves into it.Suppose you have to make a presentation at an upcoming board meeting. You feel anxious, so you eat BEFORE the meeting in order to calm down. This may or may not help in the short run. In fact, it can backfire . . . you'll feel worse if you overdo it.Other people will REACT TO a stressful even
As finals approach for many college students, we all turn to different vices and sources of comfort. I’ve seen hoards of stressed-out classmates gathered in the smoker-friendly areas on campus, while others look wild-eyed and jabber about the benefits of slamming energy drinks. Sleep is hard to find, and talk of late-night pizza delivery is normal. Personally, I take comfort in candy. I prefer chocolate, but as I proved to myself after a particularly difficult anatomy exam, almost anything with sugar will do. This article is dedicated to my fellow Candy Addicts, the frazzled students and office workers who flock to candy aisles and vending machines in search of comfort.
Selection is very important. I can tell a true Candy Addict by which vending machine he or she frequents. Everybody who takes science classes passes the same set of soda, juice, and snack machines in the main hallway, but if you want the good stuff, you go to the obscurely placed machine in a tiny room next to t
Scripps-Howard News Service and Capt. Comics continue to trash-talk about Civil War, even about the ending to it, and I'm just plain bored silly by their would-be admittal that it's all just a cop-out:For the better part of a year, Marvel characters like Spider-Man, Iron Man and Captain America have been involved in a company-wide conflict called "Civil War." Back in May, a Superhero Registration Act, which mandated that everyone with superpowers reveal his or her secret ID and work for the government, split Marvel's supercharacters down the middle. The pro-registration heroes (led by Iron Man) have been battling the "resistance" heroes (led by Captain America) ever since - until last week, when Cap surrendered.Yup, you read that right.After 10 months of combat, multiple miniseries (plus zillions of pages in various tie-ins) and lots of rhetoric about freedom and civil rights, the Sentinel of Liberty called it quits. He ordered his team to stand down, and allowed himself to be taken

Here's an interesting hack that was featured on the Make blog. It involves removing the UV filter coating from a pair of glasses simply by polishing them. Warning don't try this with a new pair of glasses!As Jason (hack author) puts it:The lenses in my favorite pair of glasses are getting to be about a year or two old, and it's getting to the point where I can barely see through them. My prescription hasn't changed much - the problem is that the UV filter coating is starting to wear off, giving the entire lense surface a rough, partially-opaque finish.So what did Jason do? Well he spent an evening polishing the lenses with...get this...sun screen!! Yes oil-free SPF 45 sunscreen did the job quite well! How you say? Well Jason thinks that it might be because "sunscreen has extremely fine aluminum powder in its composition, which is course enough to work away the coating, but fine enough to not leave visibly deep scratches in the soft plastic." Sounds like a good enough explana

So I received this great eggplant melton wool and this red flannel coating from Gorgeous Fabrics the other day. I put 5" squares in the washer and dryer. They came out minimally changed. The melton looks no different from the original and didn't shrink. The flannel coating shrunk about 1/4" in width and length. It got a little thicker too but there is hardly any difference.
Do I dare put all my
