A first gas nozzle and a second gas nozzle are fixedly provided in the vicinity of the forward end of a nozzle arm. The nozzle arm is rotated along a locus R while a substrate rinsed with deionized water is rotated, for discharging nitrogen gas from the first and second gas nozzles. Visible moisture is loosely expelled from the upper surface of the substrate by spraying the nitrogen gas from the first gas nozzle, and moisture slightly remaining on a fine pattern or the like can also be completely removed by spraying the nitrogen gas from the second gas nozzle to the same region of the substrate as that sprayed with the nitrogen gas by the first gas nozzle. Consequently, the surface of the substrate can be stably and reliably dried. Thus, a substrate processing apparatus capable of stably and reliably drying the surface of the substrate is provided.

Devices, apparatus and methods are disclosed for carrying out processing steps involved in chemical reactions such as hybridization reactions conducted on the surface of a substrate comprising chemical compounds such as biopolymer features. A device comprises a housing comprising a housing chamber. The housing comprises an opening through which a substrate may be inserted into the housing chamber. The device may also comprise a lift mechanism for moving the substrate in and out of the housing chamber in a controlled manner. At least one inlet may be in fluid communication with the housing chamber and at least one outlet may be in fluid communication with the housing chamber. Also disclosed are methods wherein the surface is brought into contact with a processing fluid; and, then, the surface is removed from contact with the fluid in a controlled manner at a rate that substantially eliminates droplet formation of the fluid on the surface of the substrate.

A center rib is formed by two circumferential main grooves. A main inclined groove and an auxiliary inclined groove are formed in the center rib. The main inclined groove is inclined with respect to the tire circumferential direction to become distanced from the tire equatorial plane from a leading side toward a trailing side in a tire rotational direction, a plurality of the main inclined grooves being juxtaposed in the tire circumferential direction and disposed alternately in the tire circumferential direction on both sides of the tire equatorial plane. The auxiliary inclined groove inclines with respect to the tire circumferential direction to become distanced from the tire equatorial plane from the leading side toward the trailing side in the tire rotational direction, a leading end and a trailing end terminating within the center rib while intersecting at least two of the main inclined grooves.

The invention discloses a water-absorbing wipe. The upper and lower layers of the water-absorbing wipe are provided with melt-blown fiber nets; the intermediate layer of the water-absorbing wipe is provided with a wood pulp cellulose net with a super absorbent resin; and melt-blown fibers of the melt-blown fiber nets are inserted into the wood pulp cellulose net. The invention further discloses amanufacturing method of the water-absorbing wipe. The method can be used for manufacturing the water-absorbing wipe disclosed by the invention. When the water-absorbing wipe is matched with water or acleaning agent, the super absorbent resin is capable of rapidly absorbing water or the cleaning agent. During wiping, by virtue of the liquid retention ability of the super absorbent resin, the wateror the cleaning agent is slowly released onto the surface of the cleaned object, and stains can be rapidly removed under the condition that the wipe is wetted. Moreover, after lots of water or cleaning agents can be absorbed by the wipe, the surface is dry and comfortable, any liquid drip phenomenon is avoided, and the wipe is convenient to use under the wetting condition.
