Abstract
Hairstyling devices include one or more heat transmissive elements having a coating disposed thereon, the coating having ceramic and lava rock incorporated therein. The use of lava rock-containing coatings as described herein results in hairstyling devices with heat transmissive elements exhibiting enhanced heat retention, faster heat recovery, and increased ion emission. Furthermore, lava rock-containing coatings have been found more durable than equivalent heat transmissive element coatings that do not have lava rock incorporated therein.

A heatable hair styling device, the device comprising:
- a handle portion;
- a styling portion coupled with the handle portion and comprising a heat transmissive member, the heat transmissive member having a cylindrical shape;
- and
- a composite coating disposed on a surface of the heat transmissive member, the coating having ceramic and lava rock incorporated therein,
- wherein
- the composite coating exhibits a pencil hardness of 6H according to an ASTM D 3363 pencil hardness test, and
- the device produces 38,100 ions/cm3 at an operating temperature of 410° F.
A heatable hair styling device, the device comprising:
- a handle portion;
- a styling portion coupled with the handle portion and comprising a heat transmissive member, the heat transmissive member having a cylindrical shape;
- and
- a composite coating disposed on a surface of the heat transmissive member, the coating having ceramic and lava rock incorporated therein,
- wherein the device produces 38,100 ions/cm3 at an operating temperature of 410° F.
A heatable hair styling device, the device comprising:
- a handle portion;
- a styling portion coupled with the handle portion and comprising a heat transmissive member, the heat transmissive member having a cylindrical shape;
- and
- a composite coating disposed on a surface of the heat transmissive member, the coating having ceramic and lava rock incorporated therein,
- wherein the composite coating heats from room temperature to about 197° C. in about 23 seconds.
