Patent AU-1796400-A (AU)
Title: Process for the realization of transferable images specially for walls
Inventor: BRIGATO ANTONIO
IPC: B44D2/00
Filed: 1999-11-26
Abstract: The invention is a new process for obtaining transferable images specially for walls in which the image is first processed by computer, printed (upturned) on supports or on transfer paper, then an adhesive binder is laid off the chosen wall, the support or the transfer paper leant against the wall is plugged back to front. Original images perfectly transferred on the pre-treated wall are obtained. This process has the advantage that neither stencils nor standard production are required but each application is original since it is created by the user himself by means of a computer.
Patent AU-1844492-A (AU)
Title: A method of packaging a beverage
IPC: B65B3/04
Filed: 1992-06-19
Abstract: A method of packaging a beverage having gas in solution has an open topped container 1 in which is located a hollow insert 5 having a restricted aperture 12. The container is charged with the beverage such as beer 15 so that the aperture 12 is submerged in the beverage and the container is sealed to form a headspace 19 which is pressurised, preferably by dosing with liquid nitrogen. Following sealing the container is rapidly inverted to locate the aperture 12 in the headspace 19 so that gas pressures in the insert chamber 10 and the headspace 19 come into equilibrium. With the fluid contents in equilibrium, or substantially so, the package is reinverted so that gas under pressure in the insert chamber 10 communicates directly by way of the aperture 12 with beer in the chamber 10. Upon opening of the headspace 19 to atmospheric pressure for dispensing the beer a pressure differential is developed by which gas from the insert chamber 10 is initially ejected through the aperture 12 into the beer 15 to effect in the development of a froth on the beer 15. Beer 30 which may flow into the insert chamber 10 prior to the aperture 12 moving to communication with the headspace 19 is accommodated within a well 13 of the insert chamber 10 remote from the aperture 12 to alleviate the ejection of such beer 30 into the beer 15. <IMAGE>

Title: Photocatalytically hydrophilifiable coating composition
Inventor: HAYAKAWA MAKOTO
IPC: B01J31/02
Filed: 1997-07-16
Abstract: A composition is disclosed which can hydrophilify the surface of a member to impart an antifogging property to the surface of the member. The composition for hydrophilifying the surface of the member comprises at least (a) photocatalytic particles of a metallic oxide, (b) a precursor capable of forming a silicone resin film or a precursor capable of forming a silica film, and (c) a solvent, the total content of the photocatalytic particle and the solid matter of the precursor in the composition being 0.01 to 5% by weight. The hydrophilic property can be imparted simply by applying the composition onto a member and drying or heating the composition applied to the member. The resultant hydrophilic thin film is transparent and, hence, does not sacrifice the transparency and appearance of a member required to be transparent. Further, the surface of a member with the above composition applied thereto has such a property that water droplets adhered thereon can be immediately removed by vaporization and the surface is less likely to be soiled and, even when a contaminant is adhered thereon, can easily release the contaminant therefrom. <IMAGE>
