Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for thermal treatment of parts, which are exposed to a protected furnace gas atmosphere generated in situ in a processing chamber of a furnace in order to substantially preserve the surface properties of said parts. The inventive method comprises the following steps: heating the furnace at a temperature above 600  DEG C and injecting or introducing nitrogen gas with up to 3 vol. % oxygen and a reducing gas into the processing chamber. In order to adapt the amount of hydrocarbons to the oxygen content of the gaseous atmosphere in the processing chamber of the furnace, the invention provides that the oxygen activity of the protective gas generated in the processing chamber (10) of the furnace (14) is measured, an actual value signal is generated on the basis of the measured value of oxygen activity, the actual value signal is fed to a control unit (15) in which a set value for the oxygen activity is stored, a set value signal is formed on the basis of the set value, which is then compared with the actual value signal and the control unit (15) modifies the supply of reducing gas in the event of variations between the actual value and the set value signal until the actual value signal matches the set value signal.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of and apparatus for forming a coating having at least one fade zone over a substrate (31). The method and apparatus include positioning a coating composition dispenser (36) above a surface of a substrate with the coating composition dispenser (36) oriented to dispense a coating composition spray (40) generally normal to the surface of the substrate (31). A gas dispenser (38) is also positioned above the surface of the substrate (31) and adjacent the coating composition dispenser (36) with the gas dispenser (38) oriented to dispense a gas stream (46) generally normal to the surface of the substrate. The coating composition spray (40) and the gas stream (46) are spaced from each other so as to develop an interference effect therebetween adjacent the surface of the substrate. Preferably the substrate is maintained at a temperature which pyrolyzes the coating composition. The interference effect directs the coating composition to deposit over the substrate as a coating having a fade zone. In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of coating composition dispensers and gas dispensers may be positioned over the substrate to provide one or more coatings on the substrate, each of which possesses at least one fade zone.
