| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4340512 | Method of providing a universal coating for fluorescent lamps A method of preparing phosphor suspensions for coating fluorescent lamps wherein the temporary organic binder is an association compound of purified carboxy methyl cellulose and polyethylene oxide in such proportions as to avoid the gelation caused by ion... | 07/20/1982 |
| 4308186 | Reflector coating composition for fluorescent lamps An essentially water-base coating to form reflective films on the inner wall of fluorescent lamps is prepared from a dispersion of TiO2 in a vehicle comprising a water solution of an organic binder, a volatile organic non-solvent of the binder ... | 12/29/1981 |
| 4289991 | Fluorescent lamp with a low reflectivity protective film of aluminum oxide The light output and lumen maintenance of fluorescent lamps with or without a conductive film, are improved by coating the glass envelope or the conductive glass envelope with a thin transparent film of Al2 O3. The alumina film is ob... | 09/15/1981 |
| 4251569 | Method of coating arc discharge lamp electrode An arc discharge lamp electrode is coated by applying thereto a suspension of alkaline earth compounds in a liquid vehicle of lignosulfonic acid, ammonia and ethylene glycol.... | 02/17/1981 |
| 4148935 | Method of making fluorescent lamp A coating is deposited on the inner wall of a fluorescent lamp bulb from a suspension of particulate matter in a liquid vehicle of polyoxyethylene, hydroxyethylmethyl cellulose and an insolubilizing agent dissolved in water. After drying and low temperatu... | 04/10/1979 |
| 4147816 | Method of improving the output and maintenance of a fluorescent lamp In the manufacture of a fluorescent lamp having lead activated barium mesosilicate phosphor coated on the inner wall of the lamp envelope, ammonium chloride or other heat decomposable chlorides are added to the phosphor coating suspension in order to impr... | 04/03/1979 |
| 4061946 | Fluorescent lamp having zero back brightness In a directional fluorescent lamp having a reflector layer between the phosphor and the glass envelope wall, there is a dark, nonreflecting, light-absorbing layer between the reflector layer and the glass to prevent light escaping from the back of the lam... | 12/06/1977 |
| 4058639 | Method of making fluorescent lamp A film of colloidal alumina is deposited on a fluorescent lamp envelope from a suspension containing nitrocellulose resin. After the film has dried, a phoshor coating is deposited thereon without the need of baking the film.... | 11/15/1977 |
| 4055781 | Special purpose fluorescent lamp A fluorescent lamp which enhances the colors blue and red while maintaining an acceptable overall color rendition contains a four component phosphor blend comprising three broad band emitting phosphors and a narror band emitting phosphor which peaks in th... | 10/25/1977 |
| 3987331 | Ultraviolet emitting fluorescent lamp having internal reflector film An ultraviolet emitting fluorescent lamp contains an internal reflector film to increase the forward flux of the lamp. The reflector film comprises a layer of zirconia on the inside glass wall of the lamp envelope.... | 10/19/1976 |
