IPC: B05D1/18
Filed: 2013-05-21
Abstract: A method is provided for the wet surface treatment of titanium dioxide, in order to produce durable universal grade titanium dioxide rutile pigment with superior optical properties. The method is characterized in that, a hydrous zirconia and silica composite layer is co-precipitated at acidic pH. Then, a layer of alumina is precipitated under a range of pH required for complete precipitation above the initial composite layer. The upper pH limit of the slurry during the alumina precipitation can be well controlled to avoid any chance for dissolution or damage of the composite zirconia-silica layer formed. Zirconia-silica composite layers and alumina thus precipitated advantageously improve the competence of the layers formed over a TiO 2  base and provide improved durability with superior optical performance. The total surface treatment cycle time and chemicals used are minimal compared to conventional methods. Improvements in throughput and washing efficiency are also realized.

Abstract: The invention relates to locating an emitting source of which measurements of emission propagation at locations different from that of the emitting source can be obtained from those locations, lacking space perception, using a sensor mobile along a self-generated path. After having obtained an emission propagation measurement from the mobile sensor at the mobile sensor location, a free energy variation for moving the sensor from its current location to each of a plurality of possible next locations of the mobile sensor is computed, the free energy being computed as a function of a standardized projected probability field of the location of the diffusing source based on previous emission propagation measurements obtained along the self-generated path. A minimum free energy variation value amongst the computed free energy variations is determined and the location associated with the determined minimum free energy variation is identified as being the next location of the sensor.
