Abstract: Foldable apparatus can comprise a first portion comprising a first edge surface defined between a first surface area and a second surface area opposite the first surface area. Foldable apparatus can comprise a second portion comprising a second edge surface defined between a third surface area and a fourth surface area opposite the third surface area. A polymer-based portion can be positioned between the first blunted edge surface and the second blunted edge surface. In some embodiments, the polymer-based portion can comprise a polymer thickness of about 50 micrometers or less measured from the second surface area and/or the first surface area. In some embodiments, the first edge surface and/or the second edge surface can comprise a blunted edge surface. In some embodiments, a coating can be disposed over the first portion, the second portion and the polymer-based portion.

Abstract: A carrier apparatus includes an article including a first major surface, a second major surface, a thickness between the first major surface and the second major surface, and an outer edge extending across the thickness between the first major surface and the second major surface. The carrier apparatus includes a coating including a central portion disposed on the first major surface of the article and an outer exposed portion disposed on the outer edge of the article, and a gasket including a first surface contacting the coating. An outer interface between the first surface of the gasket and the coating defines an outer boundary isolating the central portion of the coating from the outer exposed portion of the coating. Methods of processing a carrier apparatus to remove at least a portion of the coating from the article are also provided.
