Abstract
Abstract A novel dry ceramic powder and process for its electrostatic deposition are disclosed, characterized in that the powder is coated with a liquid, curable organopolysiloxane which is polymerized to a solid form before the powder is deposited. Preferably, the polysiloxane is monosubstituted, leaving hydrogen linkages which react with surfaces of the particles comprising the ceramic powder and thereby chemically unite the polysiloxane with the particles. The present ceramic powder can be electrostatically deposited onto a substrate and retain an electrostatic charge for appreciable periods of time, even in environments having fairly high relative humidities, for example 75% and higher.

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
The process of claim 1 in which said resistivity of at least about 10 12 ohm-cm is maintained for at least 20 hours in the environment having a relative humidity of about 88%.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words

The process of claim 1 in which polymerizing said polysiloxane includes heating the coated ceramic powder.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
The process of claim 1 in which polymerizing said polysiloxane includes heating the coated ceramic powder at a temperature within the range of about 125*C to about 300*C for about 1 minute to about 20 minutes.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
